Apricots: the light summer fruit packed with potassium, beta-carotene and fibre

Apricots are rich in potassium, beta-carotene, vitamin C and fibre while remaining low in calories, making them one of summer's most nutritious fruits. They are best eaten raw, added to breakfasts or frozen for later use, since the season is short. However, even the most valuable fruit cannot replace a varied and balanced diet.
