Orange Julius

Jump to the Recipe

Oranges are a delicious and healthy snack. A whole orange contains only about 60 calories and has no fat, cholesterol or sodium. ONE orange has over 100 percent of the Vitamin C required in your diet. However, the juice doesn't contain the fiber found in the orange pith, the white substance between the peel and the flesh. It's also easier to consume too many calories when drinking orange juice than when eating an orange, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. So, for this recipe, we used the WHOLE ORANGE. By the way, oranges boost your immune system, give you better skin, and even help improve your health heart and cholesterol levels. In addition, some evidence suggests that eating oranges may help reduce the risk of respiratory diseases, certain cancers, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcers and kidney stones. (Source: LiveScience.com)
