Peach stones contain amygdalin, a compound that can release cyanide when metabolized. While the amount of amygdalin in peach stones is relatively low, ingestion of large quantities can be toxic. Peach stones also contain fiber and small amounts of vitamins and minerals, but they are generally not consumed due to their hard exterior and potential toxicity. It's advisable to avoid eating peach stones.
