Explain why an apple is healthy.<br><br> No fake answers please thanks
zavuch27 [327]
<span>The phytonutrients in apples can help you regulate your blood sugar. Recent research has shown that apple polyphenols can help prevent spikes in blood sugar through a variety of mechanisms. Flavonoids like quercetin found in apples can inhibit enzymes like alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase. Since these enzymes are involved in the breakdown of complex carbohydrates into simple sugars, your blood sugar has fewer simple sugars to deal with when these enzymes are inhibited. In addition, the polyphenols in apple have been shown to lessen absorption of glucose from the digestive tract; to stimulate the beta cells of the pancreas to secrete insulin; and to increase uptake of glucose from the blood via stimulation of insulin receptors. All of these mechanisms triggered by apple polyphenols can make it easier for you to regulate your blood sugar.

hope it helped and dont forget to mark as the brainliest!</span>

AlekseyPX

The nursing assistant uses an orange stick while assisting with a resident's grooming to: clean the person's nails.

An orange stick is a manicure tool used for cleaning fingernails and pushing back cuticles. One end of the stick is usually pointed and slightly sharp whereas its other end is flat and arched. The stick is easy to carry and usually cheap thus enabling one to easily maintain nails while on the go.

The nursing assistant provides nail care for a resident by dipping the resident's hands in warm water in order to soften the nails, removing dirt beneath them and finally trimming the nails with a nail clipper.
