The proverb “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” dates back to 19th century and it originally said, “Eat an apple on going to bed, and you’ll keep the doctor from earning his bread.”

The forbidden fruit

A lot of people don’t know that apple is referred to as “the forbidden fruit” only because the word “apple” in Latin (mālum) is very similar to the word “evil” in Latin (mălum). Since the tree of the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden is known as “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil”, a play on words mixed evil with apple and, voila, apple became the forbidden fruit!

There are still a lot of researches being conducted in an attempt to link eating apples with a reduced risk of getting different types of cancer.
