Apricot is a fruit that has neutral thermal nature. It has a sweet-and-sour flavor. Apricot has the property to moisten the lungs and it increases the fluids. It is mainly used for dry throat, thirst, asthma, and other lung conditions when there is fluid deficit. Because of its high copper and cobalt content, it is usually used to treat anemia. Apricots originated in China, where they are considered weakening if consumed in large quantities. They must be used carefully during pregnancy, and avoided in cases of diarrhea.
