What kind of food is this?
Per 100g: 56kcal and 1.9g of fiber.
Pectin, the fiber apples are known for, is a soluble fiber that holds water and forms a gel. Gut bacteria also use it, producing short-chain fatty acids as they ferment it.
How to serve
Remove the seeds and core, and use the flesh. The seeds contain amygdalin, a cyanogenic glycoside, which can release cyanide (a cyanide compound) in the body if chewed and crushed. Throw the removed seeds and core away where your dog can't reach them.

In food-energetics terms
In food-energetics terms, this is classified as "cooling." It is said to gently cool the body and is often chosen when the body is holding excess heat.
(Food energetics is a long-standing idea of supporting the body through everyday meals. Treat it as one extra hint alongside the nutrition numbers.)
