Lo ir\u00f3nico es que si medio litro de refresco puede contener el equivalente a 13 cucharaditas de az\u00facar, tres manzanas tambi\u00e9n lo hacen<\/strong>, porque las manzanas han sido cada vez m\u00e1s dulces.<\/p>\n

Manzanas de la \u00e9poca de Shakespeare<\/h2>\n

La diferencia entre un refresco y tres manzanas es que, si bien la primera opci\u00f3n no aporta ning\u00fan valor nutricional, la segunda aporta vitaminas, minerales y fibra, y adem\u00e1s es m\u00e1s saciante. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As\u00ed que lo aconsejable es comer manzanas, aunque tengan mucho az\u00facar.<\/p>\n

No obstante, antes las manzanas no ten\u00edan tanto az\u00facar, como explica Daniel E. Lieberman<\/strong> in his book The history of the human body<\/em>. Y no solo las manzanas. Todas las frutas modernas se han cultivado selectivamente para ser mucho m\u00e1s azucaradas mediante la selecci\u00f3n artificial de los agricultores.<\/p>\n

Las manzanas de hace pocos siglos probablemente eran tan dulces como una zanahoria. De hecho, las zanahorias antiguas tampoco eran como las actuales, como ya os explicamos: Las zanahorias son de color naranja gracias al patriotismo de Holanda<\/a>:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

La prueba m\u00e1s antigua que se conoce del uso de zanahorias por parte de humanos, en Afganist\u00e1n, data del a\u00f1o 3.000 a. C. Aquellas zanahorias eran de color p\u00farpura por fuera y amarillas por dentro.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

According to A study<\/a> realizado por el bioqu\u00edmico de la Universidad de Texas Donald Davis<\/strong>, incluso en la d\u00e9cada de 1950 muchas frutas ya eran distintas. Las actuales, en comparaci\u00f3n, son un 50 % m\u00e1s pobres en hierro y con un 12 % menos de calcio y un 15 % de vitamina A.<\/p>\n
