About Orange
A medium orange is about 60 kcal with 3 g fibre and a full day's vitamin C. Eating the fruit is much better than drinking the juice — a glass of juice is three oranges' worth of sugar with none of the fibre.
Tip: Kinnow season: two or three a day is a great snack, a litre of fresh juice is 450 kcal.
