Nectarine Nutrition Facts

The smooth-skinned cousin of the peach with a bigger vitamin A payload.

About Nectarine

Nectarines are a genetic variant of peaches with smooth skin and a slightly firmer texture. They rank high on the EWG Dirty Dozen, so organic is a good pick when available. Compared to peaches, nectarines usually deliver more beta-carotene and vitamin A, alongside a solid dose of vitamin C, potassium, and polyphenol antioxidants.
