Apricots: a perfect summer food
Categories: Nutrition & Supplements
If you are a grape or apple fan, you may know that those fruits (and their skins) are some of the healthiest things you can eat these days. Fruits like tangerines and apricots are a little more exotic, but have immense health benefits as well.Not only do many fruits -- including apricots -- combat cancer, they are good for helping prevent heart disease as well as helping to prevent cataracts.
In other words, if you're not eating a daily dose of fresh fruit, what are you waiting for? The benefits are simply tremendous. The taste is not bad either! Start a healthy habit this summer and get hooked on apricots.

Apricots are my favorite summer fruit. They're really easy to freeze as well, just cut them in half and put them on a tray in the freezer. When they're frozen, transfer them to a sealable plastic bag.
For a great smoothie: 1 cup of soymilk, 1/2 cup of vanilla yogurt, 2 apricots. Whizz them together. Enjoy!
