Even though nectarines exhibit great nutritional benefits, they are not a complete food.
Peaches and nectarines provide very good sources of carotenes, potassium, flavonoids,
and natural sugars.

They are good sources of lycopene and lutein. Lutein gives the red, orange, and yellow
colors to fruits and vegetables. These phytochemicals are especially beneficial in the
prevention of heart disease, macular degeneration, and cancer
