When summer comes, we enjoy the velvety, sweet flavour of apricots, the quintessential summer fruit.
One of the benefits of this fruit is demonstrated by its typical orange colour, with a red tip, indicating that the apricot is rich in beta-carotene and packed with vitamin A, which is essential for the proper growth and repair of epithelial tissue, essentially for healthy skin, an important subject particularly in summer when we often go sunbathing.
200 g of apricots provide most of an adult’s daily vitamin A requirement. They also contain mineral salts and fibre.
