As the season of oranges graces us with its vibrant presence, it’s not just the sweet and tangy flavour of the fruit that captivates our senses. These golden globes of goodness are a treasure trove of vitamins, proteins, and antioxidants, offering not only a delightful taste but also a boost to our overall health and vitality.

Oranges are rich in vitamin C, which helps in fortifying our immune system and acts as a radiant elixir for skin health, besides enhancing iron absorption. They contain potassium, a vital mineral that helps regulate blood pressure by counteracting the effects of sodium. The soluble fiber aids in managing cholesterol levels, while antioxidants combat oxidative stress, promoting a robust cardiovascular system.
