Reduces age-related macula degeneration: dry fruits- pericarp splits open along along definite seams, legumes- elongate bean pod splitting along two seams. Ex: beans, acacia: nuts- large, one-seeded fruit w/ very hard pericarp. Peanuts: legume: fleshy fruits- all or most of the ovary wall (pericarp) is soft/fleshy at maturity, berries- entire pericarp is fleshy, may have one/many seeds. Ex: tomato, seedless grapes, avocado: hesperidium- berry w/ a leathery rind and parchment-like partitions between sections (think citrus) Ex: oranges, lemons, limes: pepo- berry w/ a hard, thick rind; typical fruit of the gourd family. Ex: pumpkin, cucumber, squash: drupe- fleshy fruit w/ hard inner layer (endocarp/stone) surrounding the seed. Ex: apricots, cherries, peaches: pomes- ovary/core surrounded by edible, fleshy receptacle tissue that"s really not part of the pericarp. Rose family: pome (apple, pears, stone/drupes (cherry, plum, peach, berries (black, rasp, strawberries) Miscellaneous (banana, fig, date, kiwi, pineapple, avocado, olive) Vegetables: vegetable-derived from various parts of plants (root, stem, leaves, flower)
