Inside Peach Pits

The pit of the peach fruit is often discarded and overlooked, but these tiny pits can provide many health benefits. Peach pits are rich in antioxidants, phytosterols and healthy fats. Antioxidants protect the body from free radicals, while phytosterols and healthy fats support heart health and strengthen the immune system. Furthermore, peach kernel oil can improve skin and hair health. Peach kernels can be consumed as a nutritious snack or used in the form of peach kernel oil. However, before starting any health program, it is important to talk to a health professional.
