Helping to shift those pounds

South African Golden Delicious are low in fat and contain around just 50 calories each – and no fat.

In fact, Australian research reveals that apples are one of the top four foods for satisfying hunger, above even wholemeal bread, brown rice, All-bran, baked beans, bananas and grapes*!
And because soluble fibre helps to stabilise blood sugar levels, South African Golden Delicious also have a low glycaemic index, making them a great choice for slimmers who want a sweet treat without all the calories!

But it’s not just the fibre in apples that makes them such a hit with slimmers. Because South African orchards receive twice the amount of sun as those in Europe, South African Golden Delicious are exceptionally sweet. As a result, the natural sugars in these apples can help to satisfy most sweet tooths. This is good news because unlike many other popular sweet treats, apples are low in calories, fat, saturates and additives AND packed with naturally occurring antioxidants that help to keep us healthy.

Like most apples, South African Golden Delicious are low in fat and contain just 50 calories each, making them a great snack if you want to lose weight.

Apples are also very portable – they’re easy to keep in your handbag, gym bag, car or on your desk at work to satisfy those between meal snack attacks that so often lead to bingeing on high-calorie, high-fat foods.

With all these benefits, it’s easy to see how South African Golden Delicious can make an important contribution to your diet when you’re trying to shift those pounds.
