Peach has a low glycemic index of 42 (typical range 37 to 47). A serving of 1 medium (2-2/3" dia) (150 g) has a glycemic load of 5, which is low. Per 100 g it provides 39 calories, 0.9 g protein, 9.5 g carbohydrate (1.5 g fiber, 8.4 g sugars) and 0.2 g fat.
Serving used for glycemic load: 1 medium (2-2/3" dia) (150 g).

Peach has a glycemic index of 42, which is low (low is 55 or under, high is 70 or over). The glycemic load of a 1 medium (2-2/3" dia) (150 g) serving is 5, which is low.
Glycemic load is the better guide, because it accounts for portion size. A serving of peach has a glycemic load of 5 (low). Eating it with protein, fat or fiber slows absorption further. This is general information, not medical advice; people with diabetes should follow their clinician's guidance.
Peach has 39 calories per 100 g, and about 58 calories in a 1 medium (2-2/3" dia) (150 g) serving.
