Green Apples VS. Red Apples - Tufts Health & Nutrition Letter

When you compare the nutrients in green apples (including Granny Smith) versus red apples (including Red Delicious and Royal Gala), the differences are minimal. They all provide the same amount of fiber and vitamin C. However, the green varieties tend to be slightly lower (about 10%) in both calories and carbohydrates, while the red varieties tend to be higher (about 50%) in beta carotene-presumably due to their color.
