An Apple

There is this saying " An Apple A day, keeps the doctor away"

Do you think it's true?
Why not Orange or other fruits?
What is your view about this statement?

I think it's more of a general statement where apple means fruits, and fruits generally mean Vitamin C.

Research suggests that apples may reduce the risk of colon cancer, prostate cancer and lung cancer.Compared to many other fruits and vegetables, apples contain relatively low amounts of vitamin C, but are a rich source of other antioxidant compounds.The fiber content, while less than in most other fruits, helps regulate bowel movements and may thus reduce the risk of colon cancer. They may also help with heart disease,weight loss,and controlling cholesterol,as they do not have any cholesterol, have fiber, which reduces cholesterol by preventing reabsorption, and (like most fruits and vegetables) are bulky for their caloric content.- quoted from wikipedia
