Apples are healthy as long as you are not one! Eat and apple. Don't be one.

Eat an apple.

 Pre-diabetes doesn't mean you have to become type 2.
An apple body shape is where fat is stored around the middle (tummy and chest).  It is linked with heart disease, diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, and gall bladder disease. The apple body shape is a warning sign of insulin resistance and pre-diabetes.

         Don't be one.

 Don't be an apple.
