Peaches are considered to be a moderately alkaline fruit because it has a pH level of around 7.5, where 7 would be completely neutral. Other fruits which are considered to be alkaline include apples, avocados, bananas, currants, grapefruits, lettuce, and many more. Fruits that are very acidic include oranges and nectarines. These are fruits which have a very high acidity level and therefore are lower on the pH scale.
The main difference is that a peach has fuzz on its skin while a nectarine does not. Nectarines are a bit more likely to be affected by diseases such as brown rot and bacterial spot. Many nectarine varieties have a spicy zing to their taste. The nectarine is thought to have originated as a mutant of the peach.
