Apples are rich in phenolic compounds called polyphenols. Cutting an apple allows polyphenol oxidase enzymes to rapidly oxidize, turning the apple brown.
Sugars are the most abundant type of carbohydrate in apples, while starches are present in small amounts. One medium gala apple with skin contains 23.5 grams of total carbohydrates. Nearly 18 grams of that total are from sugar, and 4 grams are dietary fiber. The rest is starch. Green apples contain slightly fewer carbs, evident by their tarter taste. One medium Granny Smith apple contains a little less than 23 grams of total carbs.
