​Talking about citrus fruits, orange will immediately come into the mind, and that it is high in vitamin C. Citrus actually includes a vast variety of fruits like lemons, limes, grapefruits, and tangerines, that bring similar health benefits to the human body. Let us discuss further on why eating these fruits on a regular basis is a healthy choice. 

Citrus fruits are famous because they are high in vitamin C which helps to prevent a disease called scurvy that is characterized by the bleeding of  gums. Regular intake of the variety of citrus fruits will improve your immune system healthy and help your body to fight against diseases. Aside from that, citrus fruits are a good source of potassium and folate that are good for the bones.

​The most important fact is, citrus fruits are very effective in fighting cancer because of its flavonoids... these compounds help to free the body from harmful toxins. Flavonoids found in oranges and other citrus fruits are proven to prevent or stop the growth of cancer cells. In addition since these nutrients are obtained from natural sources, not to mention they have a great taste.

Citrus fruits are good for the heart. They have natural enzymes that promote blood circulation, which is good for the human system. These enzymes also help to promote the secretion of collagen for fast recovery of wounds, and help the body to burn out excess carbohydrates, before those are released as harmful sugar into the blood! In addition, regular consumption of citrus frutis will also help to maintain the strength of our bones and tendons. 

Meanwhile, fruit consumption especially those that are under the citrus family are thought to prevent the formation of kidney stones. These stones are formed when there is too much calcium in the urine. Some studies have shown that those who are suffering from kidney stone problems typically have very low citrate levels in their urine. Similarly, people who have low vitamin C in their bodies tend to have more asthma related issues... and the best solution for these health problems is to regularly consume vitamin C and mineral rich ctirus fruits. 

The bottom line is that citrus fruits contain natural fibers, vitamins, minerals, and healthy carbohydrates. Doctors recommend daily one or two servings of oranges or any of the other citrus fruits, for that naturally healthy lifestyle.
