Apricots are one of my favorite fruits, mainly because they are so perfectly sized for a small snack. Plus they're so tasty. I've heard so much lately about how good they are for you and I thought I'd share. They're good at helping you prevent cataracts, heart disease and even cancer. Apricots -- especially dried ones -- have a good supply of lycopene, a cancer-preventing nutrient often found in tomatoes. Apricots are also high in beta carotene, an antioxidant. Have them fresh, dried, in a dessert -- simply put, just get them in to your diet somehow.
How do you like your apricots?
