Apricot kernel

Descripción del producto

Dear Sir,
We are one of the main importer of the dry apricot kernel. Just as dried apricots are dehydrated fresh apricots. Dry apricots are belong to the rose family and are botanically related to almonds, peaches, nectarines and other stone fruits. Fresh apricots are excellent sources of several important nutrients, including fiber, potassium and antioxidant carotenoids. Although the drying process degrades a fruits content of water-soluble and heat-sensitive vitamins such as vitamin C, other nutrients become more concentrated. Consequently, dried apricots provide higher levels of most nutrients, ounce for ounce, than their fresh counterparts.

• Apricots are excellent sources of vitamin-A, and carotenes. **0 g fresh fruits have ***6 IU or *4% of daily-required levels of vitamin A. Both compounds are known to have antioxidant properties and are essential for vision. Vitamin-A is also required for maintaining healthy mucus membranes and skin. Consumption of natural fruits rich in carotenes helps protect the body from lung and oral cavity cancers.
