Nutritional Value

Nectarines contain a variety of vitamins and are rich in nutrition. They can relieve cough and reduce phlegm, replenish qi and strengthen the kidneys, lower blood pressure, prolong life, and promote development and intelligence in children. Nectarines are rich in vitamin C. Nectarines are cultivated from peaches. They are sweeter than peaches and have more nutrition. The vitamin C contained in a fresh nectarine can almost meet the daily needs of an adult. Vitamin C not only helps the body absorb iron and maintain the immune system, but is also essential for the synthesis of collagen, an important component of the skin. Collagen can also promote wound scarring and is very important for wound healing. The skin of nectarines is smoother than peaches and has no annoying fuzz. The flesh is harder and comes in pink, yellow, and white colors, and has a stronger fragrance than peaches. Nectarines contain slightly more calories than peaches, an average of 36 calories.

How to eat and taboos

There are many ways to eat nectarines. They can be eaten fresh. Since they are not easy to preserve, they can also be processed into canned peaches, dried peaches, peach preserves, peach jam, fruit wine, juice, etc.

1. Although nectarines are delicious, you should not eat too much. Li Shizhen once said: "Eating too many raw peaches will make you bloated and cause boils, which is harmful rather than beneficial." The saying "peaches nourish people" means that peaches should be eaten in moderation, but fresh peaches should not be stored.

2. Eating too much nectarine can easily cause internal heat, so people with excessive internal heat and prone to boils should not eat too much. However, eating preserved fruits does not have this disadvantage.

3. Although peach kernels have the effects of breaking blood and removing blood stasis, and lubricating the intestines and relieving constipation, they contain volatile oils and a large amount of fatty oils, which can have more laxative effects than tonifying effects. Therefore, do not eat too much peach kernels. Eating too much peach kernels can lead to poisoning, with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, blurred vision, and accelerated heartbeat in the early stages. In severe cases, it can lead to cardiac arrest. Pregnant women should especially avoid eating peach kernels.
