18 Amazing Benefits Of Peaches

Are Peaches Good For You?

In addition to being beautiful, fragrant, and delicious, peaches possess an impressive assortment of nutrients to support good health, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and bioflavonoids.

Health Benefits Of Peaches

Besides its refreshing taste and aroma, peaches are rich in many essential nutrients that offer a variety of health benefits. Check out here some of the best peach fruit benefits.

1. Peaches Are  Rich In Antioxidants

There wouldn’t be a soul in this modern world who wouldn’t have heard of antioxidants. And peaches are replete with these. As per a Brazilian study, peaches could be great sources of antioxidants. They also contain chlorogenic acid, another potent antioxidant that has health-promoting advantages (1).

Peaches also contain phenolic compounds, which, as per another study, contribute to the fruit’s antioxidant activity greater than vitamin C or carotenoids (2).

Peaches are also rich in other antioxidants like lutein, zeaxanthin, and beta-cryptoxanthin – all of which play important roles in healthy aging and disease prevention (3).

2. Aid Weight Loss

As per a report published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, starting the day right goes a long way in helping one lose weight. One of the ways of doing that is to reduce the amount of cereal and make room for some fruits like peaches – this helps one feel full and consume fewer calories (4).

Peaches are also good sources of fiber, and fiber, as we know, promotes satiety and contributes to weight loss (5). An American study states that including dietary fiber with fruits could be a critical step in curbing the obesity epidemic (6). In fact, something as simple as consuming 30 grams of fiber a day can contribute to weight loss in a big way. It also helps curb the other undesirables like high cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar. Fiber intake has numerous other benefits too (7).

Fiber intake has received so much attention in the recent years. One report published by the University of Massachusetts Medical School has stated fiber intake as the one simple change that can be effective when it comes to diet (8). As per the report, including fiber in the diet could be a reasonable alternative for those individuals who find it hard to adhere to a complicated diet.

 3. Help Prevent Cancer

Cancer is a killer. Oh yes, medical technology has advanced, and the treatments are far more successful – still, preventing the dreaded disease is as important. And one of the ways to do so is by consuming peaches.

One American study states that the polyphenols found in peaches can inhibit the multiplication of breast cancer cells (9). The same was observed in the case of human colon cancer cells (10).

Peaches also contain another compound called caffeic acid, which, as per a Swedish study, offers protection against breast and colon cancers by reducing the cancer growth (11), (12). And in yet another study, the peach compounds inhibited not only the growth of breast cancer cells but also the secondary growths in the lungs (13). The two major components responsible for this anti-cancer property of peaches are chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acids – these help kill the cancer cells without affecting the healthy ones (14).

4. Peaches Benefit The Skin

Peaches, as we already discussed, are rich in vitamin A, which promotes skin health (15). The fruit also adds color to your complexion (16).

The vitamin C in peaches also helps in this regard. It is a superb antioxidant that can help reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture, and protect the skin from the sun and pollution (17).

As per a French study, vitamin C was also found to treat photodamaged skin and prevent sun-induced skin aging (18). The vitamin can also make corrections to the severe structural changes to the skin that occur as a result of the aging process (19).

5. Good For The Heart

Peaches contain a unique combination of bioactive compounds that reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. According to a study, replacing sugary drinks with fresh fruit juice rich in polyphenols (like peaches) can help lower the cardiovascular risk factors (20).

The fiber, vitamin C, and potassium in peaches also support heart health.

Peaches are rich in polyphenols, the main sources of antioxidants and vitamin C which help prevent oxidative stress and improve heart health. This graph compares the polyphenol content in peaches of different breeds and different flesh color by their mesocarp and exocarp and demonstrates that red peaches have the highest polyphenolic content in exocarp.

Peaches are also one of the important components of the much-acclaimed DASH diet – which is focused on reducing hypertensioni  High blood pressure; a reading of over 140/90 indicates that the force of blood flow against the artery walls is past normal. (21).

The Romans called the peaches “Persian Apples” after the country that introduced peaches to the West.

6. Promotes Digestive Health

 The dietary fiber in peaches helps regulate and improve digestion

(22) (23). And in addition to being good for digestion, the fruit also acts as a diuretic – it helps cleanse your kidneys and the bladder (24).

 7. Good For The Eyes

Peaches improve eye sight

The presence of antioxidant phytonutrients like lutein and zeaxanthin make the fruit ideal for eye health (25). Another study states that the two phytonutrients protect the eye from potential damage caused by light striking the retina (26). Lutein has also been found to lower the risk of developing common age-related eye diseases (27).

Lutein and zeaxanthin are also instrumental in protecting the macula, ultimately preventing the incidence of age-related macular degenerationi  A condition of the eyes that affects a portion of the retina and causes loss of vision or blurriness. (27). As per one study, people suffering from age-related macular degeneration, who consumed lutein alone or with other antioxidants, experienced less vision loss (28).

8. Peaches Detoxify Your System

Detoxification is something that doesn’t receive much attention. But, it is as important as anything else you undertake to keep yourself healthy. According to a report published by the University of Minnesota, peaches contain vitamins A, C, and E and selenium – all of which act as antioxidants and aid detoxification (22) (29).

9. Peaches Have Anti-Aging Properties

One of the best beauty benefits of peaches. Peaches possess health-boosting flavonoidsi  A class of natural plant metabolites with antioxidant and cell signaling actions that may benefit health. that help slow down aging as well (30). A South Korean study also likens the consumption of vitamin C to anti-aging effects (31).

 10. Help Reduce Stress

Peaches reduce stress

As per a report published by the University of Kentucky, peaches act as good stress relievers. They also help reduce anxiety (32). In fact, peach is called the ‘fruit of calmness’ in Hungary.

11. Promote Brain Health

Peaches are good sources of folate that promotes brain health (33).

12. Is Beneficial During Pregnancy

Wondering, what are the benefits of peaches during pregnancy? Well, peaches are a nutritional powerhouse and a great way to take care of the nutrient needs of you and your baby.

During pregnancy, the related hormones can slow down the movement of your intestines. This can lead to constipation. Peaches, being rich in fiber, can help solve this issue (34).

Peaches are also rich in folic acid that is crucial for the development of a healthy baby. It helps prevent serious birth defects (35).

Anecdotal evidence suggests that the intake of peaches may help improve immune system function as it contains ample amount of Vitamin C.

How To Select And Store Peaches

Storage

  • If it is a firm peach, place it on the counter at room temperature for a few days. It will ripen.
  • How to freeze peaches? Refrigerate the ripe peaches immediately and consume them within a week from purchase.
  • Add lemon juice to sliced peaches to keep them from darkening.
