Apricot Nutrition

Apricot

Apricots, scientifically known as Prunus armeniaca, are small drupes that resemble and are closely related to peaches or plums. They have a soft, tangy flesh beneath thin outer skin. In the middle of the apricot is a large pit, which is inedible, so be careful when taking that first big bite. 

They are typically yellow or orange, with a slight tinge of red on one side. It is difficult to understand the exact order of apricot cultivation around the world since it was both found wild and grown in prehistoric times. 

The scientific name is derived from Armenia, which is where most scientists believe apricots originated. However, they were also present in ancient Greece and Rome, and many other experts claim that original cultivation happened in India more than 3,000 years ago. The disputed origins are not important, but the impact of apricots on human health certainly is!
