About Peach slices

Peach slices are derived from peaches, a sweet and juicy fruit native to Northwest China that has become a staple in global cuisines, especially in desserts, salads, and beverages. Peaches are rich in vitamins and nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, and dietary fiber. They are low in calories and fat, making them an excellent choice for a healthy snack or meal addition. One cup of fresh peach slices (about 150 grams) provides around 60 calories, 15 grams of carbohydrates, and 2 grams of dietary fiber, contributing to overall satiety and digestive health.

Health Benefits

• Peach slices support skin health due to their high vitamin C content (10 mg per cup), which promotes collagen synthesis and protects against oxidative stress.
• They aid heart health through potassium (around 285 mg per cup), which supports healthy blood pressure regulation.
• Dietary fiber in peach slices (2 grams per cup) promotes digestive health by supporting gut function and preventing constipation.
