Just like the apple, ‘an orange a day may keep the doctor away’.
Orange contains Vitamin C, Folate, Vitamin B, Potassium, Limonin, Carotonoids and fiber. Best known for its vitamin C content, oranges boost the immune system, prevent the common cold and flu, and help the body absorb iron from food.
The team of hesperetin, limonoids, limonin, nomilin, and beta-cryptoxanthin join together to effectively combat cancer. Found in the peel of an orange, d-limonene, a strong antioxidant disarms a range of carcinogens and appears to lower ‘lousy’ LDL cholesterol. The best sources of these cancer fighting phytochemicals is found in the juice and especially in the zest of an orange. The heart is protected by the orange-yellow carotenoid beta-cryptoxanthin. Orange May help prevent cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure and infection. Enjoy a glass of pulpy orange juice with a meal or blended in smoothies everyday.
