Apple

You know what they say: "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." And no wonder because it's bursting with vitamins and nutrients, especially Vitamin C and Vitamin A. Unfortunately, a lot of us have the bad habit of removing the skin, which is where the majority of the apple's nutrients are! If you're paranoid about hygiene and quality, go for organic apples so you can be sure you know what you're getting.

It's the same for the majority of fruits and vegetables—the vitamins are found in the skin and not the flesh, as we tend to believe. So instead of always peeling your produce, just be sure to give it a good wash so you can eat the skin and reap all its nutritional benefits.
