In a study of 160 women who ate
dried apples or prunes daily for one year their low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (the "bad" one)
dropped 23% after 6 months. Their high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (the "good" one)
rose about 4%. The women participating in the study ate 2/3 cup of either dried apples or dried prunes each day. Even though the dried fruit added 240 calories to their daily intake most of the women lost an average of 3.3 pounds. This study was conducted by Florida State University. So go ahead and add
some dried apples or prunes to your daily intake ladies
