✦ Vitamin C ✦ Folate ✦ Dietary fibre ✦ Flavonoids

Oranges are round citrus fruits with sweet-tart juicy flesh and a thick outer peel. They are a strong source of vitamin C and provide folate, fibre and flavonoids such as hesperidin.

Preparation note

Weighed with peel and pips means inedible parts are included in the weight, diluting per-gram nutrient figures compared with flesh only.

* % Daily Value is the proportion of an adult EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) supplied by 100g of this food. NRVs are the labelling standard — the same basis as the “%RI” figures printed on food packaging — so these percentages are directly comparable with a shop label. They are a single adult figure and do not vary by age or sex, which is why they sometimes differ from UK dietary reference values: the NRV for vitamin C is 80mg where the UK RNI is 40mg. When Nutriofia assesses your own intake in the reports and trackers, it uses the age- and sex-specific UK values instead.

Fibre is shown without a percentage. Our fibre values use the UK Englyst NSP method, while the published 30g daily goal is an AOAC figure — the two are measured differently and a single percentage would mislead. How we source and normalise our data →
