Experts' Opinion on Apple Peel Powder

Donna Schwenk

"Apples have been associated with a number of benefits that could help promote long-term health, but one of my favorite things that apples, and more importantly the peel can do is feed the all-important bacteria called Akkermansia Municiphila."

Founder, CulturedFoodLife.com

Sandi Busch

"You'll get both types of fiber -- soluble and insoluble -- from eating the apple peel, but about 77 percent of the total amount is insoluble. Insoluble fiber prevents constipation by binding with water and pushing digestive waste through the large intestine. Soluble fiber becomes gelatinous when it mixes with water in your digestive tract."

LiveStrong.com

Professor Liu

"Processed apple peels retain their phenolic and flavonoid compounds activity and therefore may be used as a value-added ingredient with potent antioxidant activity."

Nutrition Journal

HuffPost Wellness

"A skin-on apple a day keeps spare pounds away. The peel is also home to ursolic acid, an important compound in the obesity-fighting ability of apples."

Great product

I don’t want to be without it!

SUPER CONVENIENT

Organic, red apple peels in a powdered form makes it so easy for me to feed the fish! I have been using Layer’s products for a year now as I am working towards balancing my colon bacteria. I just added this product to the HMO’s. My body is handling the Organic Peel Powder with no problems. I would suggest not to add it to coffee, as it does have a distinct sweeter taste (just my preference) than the HMO’s which are tasteless.

Love it!

The apple peel powder has really made a huge difference in my health. In the past two years I've been through many procedures to save my life. I first heard of the benefits of this product through Ms.Donna's podcast. By far it has given me a boost of energy to get through the day and I feel the difference every morning when I put it in my probiotic shake.
