Orange juice, a staple in many households, is a citrus beverage made from the extraction of oranges, commonly originating from the Mediterranean region but widely enjoyed around the globe. Known for its refreshing taste and vibrant color, orange juice is rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin C, potassium, and folate, supporting immune health, hydration, and heart function. Its natural sugars provide quick energy, making it a favored morning drink or snack. However, while fresh orange juice offers valuable antioxidants, store-bought varieties can sometimes contain added sugars, contributing to higher calorie intake. Its concentrated acidity can also impact dental enamel over time. Popular across cuisines, orange juice is featured in breakfast dishes, smoothies, marinades, and cocktails. Choosing 100% juice and consuming in moderation ensures you maximize health benefits while limiting potential downsides.
