Spring

Savour orchard fruits and red fruits!

In the spring, orchard fruits, like apricots and red fruits, 
such  as  redcurrants,  are  fully  ripe.  The  best  way  to 
eat  them  is  without  a  doubt  at  the  time  of  picking. 
But  delicious  jams  also  enable  you  to  rediscover  their 

intense taste and fl avour.

•  

Apricots are one of the fruits that provide the most pro-
vitamin  A:  1.5 mg/100  g.  Vitamin  A  and  in  particular 
carotenoids  are  known  for  their  action  on  the  skin, 
encouraging tanning.

•  

Red  fruits  (cherries,  strawberries,  raspberries,  redcur-
rants, etc.) are rich in polyphenols, a wide family of food 
antioxidants.

•  

Strawberries  (0.40 mg/100  g)  and  redcurrants 
(0.24 mg/100 g) are a good source of zinc, which has a 
positive effect on the skin’s cells.
