There's this joke about an Engineer and a Doctor who fell inlove with a particular lady. The Doctor usually visited the lady more often than the Engineer. And every time he went to visit her, he would go with varieties of gifts. But the few times the Engineer would visit her, he must go with apples to give to her. So, one day, the lady asked the Engineer why he brings apples everytime. The Engineer said that the apples will keep the Doctor away....🤣🤣🤣
Bro used 100% of his brain 🤣🤣

Introduction

Keeping the Doctors away simply means staying healthy. It also means not visiting the hospital for any form of treatment. The saying that apples keeps the Doctors away is well known in my locality. Apples act as preventive medicine for many type of illnesses and it seems to be true. It is of great benefits to eat at least an apple in a day.

Have you ever heard this saying before? What do you think it means?

Yes, I have heard of the saying before.....
It is a popular idiom that recommends eating apples every day. That it helps to maintain good health and also prevent regular visiting of Hospitals. Although apples are indeed a nutritious fruit that can make a part of a balanced diet, note that this saying is just a catchy message and not a scientifically proven fact.

Do you think eating an apple every day can really keep the doctor away? Why or why not?

No , I don't think just by eating apples everyday, can keep the Doctors away.

Although apples are a good source of vitamins, antioxidants and fiber which helps to sustain and maintain overall health and wellness. But, maintaining good health also requires many other factors like ; exercise, regular medical check-ups, good sleep, etc. So, eating just only apples everyday does not guarantee that Doctors will actually stay away.

" A day with banana, a day with no worries "

I would create this saying to advocate the numerous health benefits of banana. Bananas consist of essential nutrients that contribute to an overall well-being. The saying suggests that adding banana into your diet can promote physical/mental health. This can take out stress and keep the mind at rest. Also, the refreshing taste of bananas can also provide a mental and emotional stability.

Conclusion

Eating good food , fruits and vegetables is vital in maintenance of good health and overall well-being. Incorporating apples could also add more benefits to it. As we embark on the journey of our daily activities, taking at least one apple in a day may safe a chance of seeing a doctor 🤣🤣
