Nam: Hey Scott, have you ever heard the saying, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away"?
Scott: Of course, why?
Nam: Did you know that it’s really true?
Scott: What do you mean? If I eat one apple a day I will never get sick?
Nam: Not exactly, but it can help you lose weight, build healthy bones, and also prevent diseases like cancer.
Scott: Wow! That’s incredible. I drink apple juice every day.
Nam: That’s good, it will help keep you from getting Alzheimer’s disease when you get old.
Scott: Is that the disease that affects your memory?
Nam: Yes. Since drinking apple juice helps boost your brain’s memory function, it helps you remember things for a long, long time.
Scott: But Nam!
Nam: Yeah?
Scott: There are a few things I really want to forget.
Nam: Like losing the football match yesterday?
Scott: Exactly!
