Peach is a common fruit in many countries, not only serving as a refreshing drink in the summer but also providing numerous health benefits. Nowadays, peaches have been processed into powder form for convenience and versatility in food applications. Let’s learn more about peach powder through the article below!
INTRODUCTION TO PEACHES
“Peach,” scientifically known as Prunus persica, is “a species of tree cultivated for its fruit or flowers.” The peach tree is an early deciduous tree, with a small woody stem, which can grow up to 5-10 meters. The leaves of the peach tree are lanceolate, 7-15 cm long, and 2-3 cm wide. The flowers bloom in early spring, before the leaves appear; they are solitary or paired, with a diameter of 2.5-3 cm, pink in color with 5 petals. Peaches are a type of fruit originating from the Central Asia and Middle East regions, and nowadays are grown and distributed widely across the globe.
Peaches have a round or spherical shape, with a deep cleft at the top and bottom of the fruit. The color of peach skin can vary from yellow, orange, red to purple depending on the type of peach. Inside, there is a large seed in the center surrounded by a layer of soft, juicy flesh, with a sweet flavor.
There are various types of peaches, including white peaches with yellow skin and white flesh, yellow peaches with orange skin and yellow flesh, red peaches with red skin and flesh, and purple peaches with purple skin and flesh.
Peaches have a sweet, smooth, and juicy flavor. They are a source of vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, and fiber. Peaches also contain some antioxidants and health-promoting compounds such as beta-carotene and lycopene.
NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF PEACHES
Peaches contain a large amount of essential nutrients for normal body functions. Peaches are a source of vitamin A, beta-carotene, and vitamin C. Peaches also contain a lot of vitamin E, vitamin B1, B2, B3, B6, folate, and pantothenic acid. Peaches also contain a large amount of minerals such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, manganese, phosphorus, zinc, and copper.
HEALTH BENEFITS OF PEACHES
Antioxidant properties
Both the skin and flesh of peaches provide important antioxidants. Antioxidants in peaches include lutein, zeaxanthin, and beta-crypto xanthin, which help peaches to collect free radicals in the body and protect the body against the effects of many diseases caused by free radicals.
Regulating blood potassium levels
Peaches contain potassium, a very important substance in nerve transmission and cell activity. The amount of potassium in peaches can support metabolism, carbohydrate utilization, maintain electrolyte balance, and regulate muscle tissue.
Limiting cancer cell growth
Peaches are rich in phenolics and carotenoids, which have anti-cancer properties and combat carcinogens, while also being effective against certain types of cancer such as breast cancer, lung cancer, and colorectal cancer.
Skin inflammation prevention
Peaches maintain healthy skin due to their high vitamin C content, which can protect the skin against harmful free radicals and infections.
Peaches can also protect the skin from factors like ultraviolet rays. Some studies have provided evidence that the antioxidants zeaxanthin and lutein found in peaches have highly effective anti-inflammatory effects in cases of UVB-damaged skin and can protect the skin from excessive cell proliferation. Flavonoids in peaches prevent skin redness caused by UV rays.
Prevention of dry eyes
Peaches are rich in beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body. Beta-carotene plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy eyes and preventing eye diseases such as dry eyes or blindness.
Prevention of hemorrhoids, gastric ulcers
Peaches are excellent for maintaining a healthy digestive system due to their high fiber and alkaline content. The fiber in peaches can absorb water and help prevent gastrointestinal disorders such as constipation, hemorrhoids, gastric ulcers, gastritis, and abnormal bowel movements. Fiber can also cleanse the intestines, remove toxins, prevent various digestive disorders, and even stomach cancer.
