2 Orange Nutrition Facts & Benefits

Orange Culture

An orange is perfectly appealing to anyone and goes over great as a gift, toss a friend an orange and you are guaranteed a smile in response. Orange / Yellow is a happy color, it’s the color of the traditional happy face sticker. Orange is the sweet lemon, that still zestfully wakes you up and garnishes another delight, while sweet at the same time – in a delightful combination!

Orange Nutrition Facts & Benefits

Oranges provide great flavor in a Nutritional Diversity mix. Oranges also help the uptake of other foods in the mix, into action and into the bloodstream. I recommend a constant amount of orange intake for everyone, always – preferably just after physical output. They are a unique blend of very helpful ingredients to a solid human optimization regimen.

High in Vitamin C

Nutrients in oranges are plentiful and diverse, to include pectin which protects the colon and stomach track and are high in vitamin C, important to keep a system in it’s optimum performance state. The orange does not have any saturated fats or any cholesterol.

Consumption of foods rich in vitamin C help the body develop resistance against infectious agents and, pro-inflammatory free radicals in the blood. Oranges are also high in dietary fibers which keep the bowls moving, a primary health and optimization objective to practitioners of the Nutritional Diversity doctrine.

Both vitamin C and citric acid can increase the absorption of iron from the digestive tract, as well as other important nutrients and minerals making oranges a Nutritional Diversity Top Pick. Sunflower seeds, nuts, beef, lamb, beans, whole grains, dark leafy greens (spinach), dark chocolate, liver, clams are high in iron – the oxygenator of the blood, and are thus recommended consumption associates with oranges.

High in Vitamin A

Vitamin A is needed in maintaining healthy mucus membranes and skin and essential for healthy vision.

Oranges are the hosts of a great spread of flavonoids whose immune boosting and blood cleaning abilities can play a vital role in the optimization of human performance, and progressive antibodies for the worlds many systemic and pandemic adversaries. Athletes take note oranges are a very good source of B-complex vitamins such as thiamin, pyridoxine, and folates.

Vitamin A Fun Facts : A meta-analysis of 43 studies showed that vitamin A supplementation of children under five who are at risk of deficiency reduces mortality by up to 24%. About 75% of the vitamin A required for supplementation activity by developing countries is supplied by the Micronutrient Initiative with support from the Canadian International Development Agency. The World Health Organization estimates that Vitamin A supplementation has averted 1.25 million deaths due to vitamin A deficiency in 40 countries since 1998.

High in Vitamin B6

Chickpeas, pistachios, beef, bananas, potatoes are some other foods high in vitamin B6. Oranges and other vitamin B6 rich foods have alkaline binding conversion properties very important to the balance of the system. Alkaline converting foods are an important focus for serious nutritionists.

High in Dietary Fiber and Minerals

Potassium, calcium & magnesium are in oranges making them good eye, joint, bone, and testosterone supportive food. Dietary Fiber keeps the top priority of bowls moving.

Availability

Oranges are very available. Source from a local farmer, oranges store well especially with refrigeration, so bulk purchasing is easy, and should be pretty cheap anywhere in the world.

Orange Leaves

Nutritional Diversity pays much attention to green foods, and has experimented plenty with orange tree leaves (several verities), mixed in green blends among 10 – 25 other plants species without issue. One thing to note is that the orange tree grows fairly woody, to about 8 to 14 feet in height mostly, and this size of tree material can be considered tough digestion. I have taken down 5 to 6 leaves very often in Nutritional Diversity smoothies which in the entire diversity of plants that our smoothies have; give a great amount of support and energy.

I would say further more that eating the leaves from young orange trees that have not started producing yet, would be a way to get some of the above described nutrients into the system and in the green parts of the tree, you may get even more than you hoped for.

In some ancient healing practices orange tree leaves are mentioned in teas and tea making.

Medicine

Oranges are a good source of citric acid and citrates, which are believed to help prevent kidney stone formation and can help treat kidney stones. Oranges regulate blood flow and cholesterol, and help with forming antibodies against infectious attackers. Oranges boost the immune system and can be used with strategical timing, for example in the bus or the airplane, to avoid catching contagious bugs.

Permaculture

Orange is the citrus fruit belonging in the Rutaceae family, of the genus; Citrus. The genus citrus also includes other related species of oranges like the tangerine (mandarin orange), lemon, and grapefruit. The orange’s true origin is a mystery, but the cultivation of oranges is thought to have started in eastern Asia thousands of years ago. They are sub-tropical and tropical condition preferring trees. Goats do not eat the orange trees we learned from Joey, in this Permaculture Goat Lesson.

Are Oranges GMO ‘d? What is Citrus Greening?

“Citrus greening,” a disease spread by small bugs called psyllids is said to have knocked out 7.8$ from the orange industry in 2014, and a GMO orange was “close to hitting the market,” in May of 2015. Farmers on the ground do not fear that citrus greening will effect every orange fruit tree but major news media continues to report overwhelming need and support for the GMO resistant to citrus greening idea. Good thing though; is that most orange trees producing today are still non-GMO so plant them and save us all. A fun fact to this is that Tropicana Orange Juice has announced it is now officially all GMO-free and staying that way, and Russia is an all GMO free nation.

The sensible cure to citrus greening is in permaculture and what to cultivate the oranges around that will protect them from the transferring insect all together. I found something by David the Good Survival Gardener, led me to white guava tree research indicating that it repelled the psyllid insect. David the Good has lemongrass patches drawn in also. So we can plant some white guava stuff, and I wonder if a garlic leaf vine on the orange tree wouldn’t be a great addition. This is the sad state of infancy we are still bound by in permaculture and correctly raising our food, and gaining a relationship with nature.

Topical Application of Orange

Orange is a skin cream ingredient for sure. It cuts grease and dirt, and can help with even acne cases. Mixed with some avocado it can leave the skin very fresh and cleaned out. I have seen it with salts, and coconut stuffs, and it has a good morning vibe that it offers topicals.

Household Cleaning Agent

Oranges are also a household cleaning agent, diluted in water orange juices are a safe natural cleaner great for floors kitchen and tile surfaces. Mixed with a good oil they are great for cleaning and maintaining woods also!

GYM EDGE

Oranges are a great pick me back up. They can be a great stomach settler too. I keep a few in my gym bag, and definitely have them after a workout if I didn’t need them during, as the array of digestive enzymes and alkaline conversion properties can do wonders to support and utilize proteins and other foods that I want my body to get the most of and metabolize quickly. The immune system boost of the orange is great to help with possible fatigues brought on by immune system fight lag.

Oranges are equally good before a workout with some nuts, and some ginger or other root food or dark chocolate to see the blood thicken and oxygenate.

Orange consumption around the time of physical output, should be staple to any serious athletic routine. Source from a local farmer, oranges store well especially with refrigeration, so bulk purchasing is easy.

Better Supplement Taking

Powdered supplements can bind with real foods in smoothies, and soak and process better this way.

Why Powdered Supplements Bind and Work Better with Real Foods in Smoothies

Powdered supplements are often isolated compounds — vitamins, minerals, amino acids, adaptogens, enzymes, proteins, etc. — that are highly concentrated but not always naturally bioavailable on their own. Meaning: your body might not absorb or utilize them as efficiently unless they are delivered in a more natural, whole-food matrix.

What Happens When You Blend Supplements into Real-Food Smoothies

You Create a Natural “Carrier Matrix”
Real foods — fruits, vegetables, seeds, and roots — are rich in enzymes, fibers, fats, and natural cofactors that help escort nutrients through digestion.
When powdered supplements are blended into these foods, the compounds get absorbed into the moisture, the fibers, and the fats of the smoothie, mimicking how nutrients appear in nature. This improves uptake.
You Pre-Hydrate and Activate the Powdered Compounds
Powders in dry form are inert. When you soak or blend them into liquids (especially with plant enzymes), you start the breakdown process. This makes the nutrients more “bioactive,” or ready to be absorbed, especially in the gut.
You Reduce Digestive Stress
Isolated powders can sometimes be harsh — especially on empty stomachs. But when mixed with food, the digestive system treats the whole mixture more like a meal, not a foreign chemical. This allows for smoother digestion and better assimilation.
You Enhance Synergy
Some nutrients need companions to be absorbed properly:
- Fat-soluble vitamins (like A, D, E, K) absorb better when fat is present (like from coconut, nuts, seeds)
- Minerals like magnesium and zinc are better absorbed with amino acids or acids (like lemon, greens, or fruit acids)
- Protein and adaptogens are more effective when metabolized slowly alongside real fiber and phytonutrients
So, adding your powdered supplement to a smoothie enhances the synergy of multiple nutrients working together — just like nature intended.

HEY!!! CLEAN WATER IS NUMBER 1!!!

Example: Jungle Juice Style Smoothie

Water or coconut water
1 scoop powdered supplement (diverse formula)
Banana or papaya (enzymes + potassium)
Wild greens or herbs (cofactors, chlorophyll) [!!HIGH DIVERSITY!!]
Seeds or nut butter (healthy fats for absorption) (lectins [i] destroyed if pressure-cooked, powdered, or buttered in seeds)
Splash of citrus or vinegar (acid for mineral absorption) (or not)
Blend = Bioactive powerhouse

Bottom Line:

Powdered supplements are just the start. The real alchemy happens when they bind with real food.

Blending them into smoothies:

Mimics natural digestion
Enhances bioavailability
Boosts effectiveness
Reduces stress on the gut
Unlocks the full potential of the formula

You’re not just taking a supplement.
You’re feeding your body intelligently.

Nutritional Diversity Supplements, A New Age of Nutrition is Here

A New Age of Nutrition Is Here

Most nutritionists don’t know how nutrition is actually cultivated in nature.
They don’t understand ecosystems — they understand isolated compounds.
They don’t build vitality — they prescribe boxes.

Much like modern agriculture, today’s nutrition field is dominated by shortcuts and chemicals. Synthetic vitamins, mass-produced crops, sterile soils, and monoculture mindsets. These systems cheat nature — and nature always pushes back.

The consequences?
Wrecked soil. Broken guts. Fragile immune systems. A sick planet and a sick population.
Not just humans — but animals, microbes, insects, and even fungi are caught in the backlash.

We Are Building a Better Way

At Nutritional Diversity, we don’t accept that.
We’ve outperformed mainstream systems — in the jungle, in the gym, in healing, in every measure that counts.

We are now entering the supplement space not to compete… but to replace.
We will use today’s manufacturing only as a bridge — our long-term mission is to build a completely new:

Sourcing network
Cultivation ecosystem
Ingredient preparation system
Manufacturing + probiotic delivery model

Rooted in nature’s complexity, not synthetic simplicity. [i]

From Monocultures to Permacultures

We are converting monoculture zones into regenerative permaculture ecosystems,
restoring biodiversity and unlocking the real medicine — nutrient-dense, wild-aligned food.

We’re not just making supplements.
We’re starting a nutritional revolution that frees people from the centrally controlled food system — one capsule, one field, and one mind at a time.

Join the Movement

This isn’t just about health.
It’s about reconnection.
To the soil.
To the body.
To the Source.

We are recruiting new souls to the love we were separated from.
Our vision is enormous — and enormously important.

Let’s build it.
Together.

ABSTRACT:

We could make an extreme picot go down the path of ecological enhancement and create an Avatar Movie-like wonderland paradise.
We could come up with an easy-to-make one-issue voter system to where we can take a fingerprint and multi-source verified vote on issues like involvement in conflicts, or new agriculture projects such as a Department of Nature, or genius Diodynamic farming proposals.
We could go down the path of industry, tech advancement, interstellar endeavors, and exterior adventures.
We could continue to go down the path of selfishness, war, and ego.
