5. Apple
An apple with peel is a healthy snack to enhance your child/teen’s dietary fiber and overall nutrient intake. Eating a medium-sized apple offers soluble and insoluble fiber, vitamin C, and essential phytochemicals, such as quercetin. These nutrients also contribute to healthy growth and development.
