Peach: Health Benefits of Peaches
-
Peaches are fluffy fruits native to northwestern China. They are a member of the stone fruit family and contain one large hard stone, just like cherries, apricots, plums and nectarines. The inner flesh of a peach varies in color from white to yellow or orange. Peaches are delicious in, for example, a smoothie, breakfast cereals or yogurt. Summer is the best time to buy fresh peaches when they are at the peak of their season and have the best flavor, freshness and nutritional value. People prefer peaches with tight, fuzzy skin that dents slightly when pressed. Canned peaches often contain heavy syrup; people buy canned peaches with no added sugars or syrups.
