An apple a day keeps the doctor away, as the saying goes. And not just any doctor (and they don’t mean Apple computers either, although they do decrease stress in users – phillis).

Funny, I’m reading this article about apples – whilst eating an apple and typing on an apple mac computer…um..very interesting!
Plus my co-workers are talking about ipods and the new ibook.
Weird!
Smoking also seems to have a good influence on the brain, research in this area is being performed.
Apples instead of candy once was supposed to be very healthy as well … but the teeth don’t always agree.
Anyhow .. would be nice if they would find something that helps in Alzheimer and Parkinson.
Hm … someone here predicted this a while ago already … don’t remember who it was.
Ugh, I don’t like apples (apart from the gorgeous one on my desk, ruling my life). Why can’t it be a persimmon a day?
how about apple pie?

Apples don’t always help!…if i eat enough of them there’ll be anafylactische shock which causes choking …and then i’ll be brain-dead.
