Orange juice, freshly squeezed

Freshly squeezed orange juice is the strained juice of fresh oranges. It mainly provides water and carbohydrate, along with vitamin C and potassium. Per 100g, it contains 8.1g of carbohydrate, all of which is sugar, 48mg of vitamin C and 180mg of potassium, and provides 140 kJ of energy.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. The sugars in fruit juice are classed as free sugars, even when no sugar has been added. This is relevant when monitoring sugar intake and for dental health. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
