Apricots For Healthy Aging

Apricots are loaded with vitamins A, B3, B5, C, and K. Beta carotene, so necessary for control of cataracts and macular degeneration, is also a component of this versatile little fruit. Minerals found in apricots are copper, magnesium, potassium and phosphorous.

Used to make tarts and jams, they are also delicious when eaten raw. When fresh apricots are not in season, dried apricots provide a powerhouse of healthy ingredients.
