The vitamin profile for red, green and yellow are similar. What will make the vitamin content vary will be things such as when it is picked, how it is stored, growing conditions, how it is prepared, with or without skin, etc. A sidenote: the nutrient profile of apples is pretty low -- a medium apple has 8 mg vitamin C, 5 mcg folate, etc. Apples are a decent source of fiber -- medium apple has 4 - 5 grams (with skin) and it also has a nice phytochemical profile -- quercitin, zeaxanthin and beta carotene.

=In my opinion, green apples taste better than red apples, not a lot or a little better, just better, but if you ask me, red apples are better for you than green apples, because green apples taste better than red apples. Would most people rather eat fried food or grilled food? Obvious answer, but grilled food is better for you than fried food.=
Is apple juice more acidic then orange juice?
Both lemons and apples contain different types of acids. If you are asking which is the more acidic type of fruit, then the lemon is.

Are red apples better for you than green ones?
Some apples are red when they are ripe and some are green when they are ripe. Neither type is "better for you" than the other. Those apples that are red when ripe are often green when they are not ripe. Eating those kinds of green apples (unripe apples) is not good for you. That is the only sense in which red apples are "better for you" than green apples.
