Apricots are a great source of fiber as well as being packed with antioxidants, including beta carotene and vitamins E, C and A. They're also high in a group of polyphenol antioxidants called flavonoids, which have been known to help protect against illnesses including diabetes and heart disease. On average, 100g of fresh apricots can provide you with 12% of vitamin C, 12% of vitamin A and 6% of potassium that the body requires daily. Also, thanks to their high vitamin A (also known as retinol) content, apricots can help protect your immune system while protecting your skin health too.
