English Proverb: An apple a day keeps the doctor away
I thought it might be appropriate to introduce this little proverb: an apple a day keeps the doctor away, at this time of year.
It may give a little boost to your willpower.
If you are feeling a little peckish at work, do not open your desk drawer and reach for the snacks you have hidden there.
You thought it was a secret, but I know you have them because I also have them in my desk drawer.
If you are feeling peckish, remember an apple a day keeps the doctor away.
This means that if we eat healthy food, we will be healthy and will not have to see a doctor.
Nobody wants to see the doctor.
