PEACH DRIED FRUIT

Peaches had their origins in Asia. They were domesticated in China in the 3rd millennium BC and spread to the Fertile Crescent where they were also very popular, fresh and dried alike. They arrived in Greece and Italy much later and were very expensive but valued in the preparation of gourmet dishes with port or stewed with honey and spices. By virtue of their high polyphenol content, dried fruits are an important source of antioxidants in the diet.

1. High in Dietary Fiber

Dried peaches are an excellent source of dietary fiber, which supports healthy digestion, prevents constipation, and promotes a balanced gut microbiome.

2. Rich in Antioxidants

Like fresh peaches, dried peaches contain antioxidants like beta-carotene, polyphenols, and vitamin C, which help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals and reduce inflammation.

3. Supports Eye Health

Dried peaches contain beta-carotene and vitamin A, essential for maintaining good vision and eye health. Beta-carotene can reduce the risk of macular degeneration and other age-related eye issues.

4. Boosts Skin Health

The antioxidants, especially vitamin C, in dried peaches support collagen production, which helps maintain skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, and protect against UV damage.

5. Supports Immune System

With its high vitamin C content, dried peach can help boost immunity by enhancing the production and function of white blood cells, helping the body fight off infections more effectively.

6. Bone Health Support

Dried peaches provide small but valuable amounts of minerals like potassium, calcium, and magnesium, which are vital for maintaining strong bones and preventing bone loss.
