About Peaches

Peaches are native to NW China and have been cultivated since 2000 BC.  Peaches were then grown in Persia and brought to Europe by Alexander the Great after he conquered the Persians.  Over 50% of the worlds peaches are produced in China.

Nutrition Benefits of Peaches

Peaches are rich in carotenoids.  The peels contain a significant amount of these antioxidants.  Because of the carotenoids – they are often known for eye health.  Vitamin C levels have various benefits including anti-aging and skin health.

Smoothie Tip

We typically buy frozen peaches to be used in smoothies.  They are cheaper and last a very long time.

If you use fresh peaches, be sure to remove the pit.  Blenders do not do very well with peach pits!
