Best Healthy Page April 7, 2016

Did you know that only one orange (about 130 grams), will supply you with nearly 100% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin C and also will fill you with vitamin A, vitamin B, amino acids, beta-carotene, folic acid, potassium, calcium, iodine, phosphorus, zinc, manganese and iron.

Benefits Of OrangesOf course, everyone already know that orange is healthy and tasty. But did you know that you should eat and those whites which are stretched inside the bark and the fruit, which most of us peels?

In fact, this part of the orange is particularly useful because it contains large amounts of anti-carcinogenic substances and antioxidants. In fact, most bioflavonoids (antioxidants) and vitamin C are found right here.
