Oranges offer moderate anti-inflammatory benefits primarily through vitamin C, hesperidin, and other citrus flavonoids that reduce oxidative damage and support immune regulation.
Vitamin C
-0.7
One orange provides over 100% daily value, acting as a powerful antioxidant that reduces inflammatory markers like C-reactive protein.
Hesperidin
-0.5
Citrus flavonoid that improves vascular function and reduces inflammatory cytokine production in endothelial cells.
Beta-cryptoxanthin
-0.3
Carotenoid antioxidant associated with reduced inflammatory arthritis risk in epidemiological studies.
This score is ingredient-based and weighted by DII-inspired evidence. Foods with added sugar, refined starches, and heavy processing trend higher; foods with fiber, omega-3, and polyphenols trend lower.
Oranges are low FODMAP in servings up to one medium orange, but juice can become high FODMAP in large quantities due to fructose.
