Peaches are classified as stone fruits with a sweet, juicy texture and are known for their vibrant orange-yellow color. Nutritionally, they are low in calories—about 60 calories per medium peach—and provide essential vitamins such as vitamin C and A, as well as dietary fiber and potassium. Due to their natural sweetness and nutrient content, diced peaches are a widely appreciated healthy addition to many dishes.

Common Questions About Diced peaches Nutrition

Are diced peaches high in calories and sugar?

Diced peaches are relatively low in calories, with about 60 calories per 100 grams when canned in juice. However, they can be high in sugar, especially if packed in syrup, containing around 20 grams of sugar per serving. Opt for unsweetened or fresh varieties to minimize added sugars.

Can I eat diced peaches on a keto or low-carb diet?

Diced peaches are not typically keto-friendly since they contain around 9 grams of net carbs per 100 grams in fresh form. For a strict keto diet, their natural sugar content may exceed daily carb limits. However, they can be enjoyed in moderation on a general low-carb diet depending on portion size.

What are the health benefits of diced peaches?

Diced peaches are a good source of vitamin C, providing about 10% of your daily recommended intake per 100 grams, which supports immune function and skin health. They also contain dietary fiber (1-2 grams per serving), which aids digestion. However, canned peaches in syrup may have fewer nutrients and higher sugar content.

What is the recommended serving size of diced peaches?

A standard serving size of diced peaches is about 1/2 cup (approximately 125 grams). This portion provides around 50-60 calories and 10-12 grams of sugar for peaches in juice, or slightly more if packed in syrup. Adjust portion sizes based on your dietary goals.

Are diced peaches healthier than other canned fruits?

Diced peaches are comparable to other canned fruits in terms of calories and sugar when packed in syrup. However, they can be a slightly healthier choice than canned tropical fruits like pineapple due to their lower acidity and higher fiber content. Always choose diced peaches packed in natural juice or water for the best nutritional profile.
