There are very few kinds of food that go well with every meal. Mashed potatoes for breakfast? Not quite. Coffee with dinner? Probably not a good idea. Whether we realize it or not, we organize the food we ingest according to custom and tradition. Mostly, we learn these habits from childhood, never considering why or how they could benefit from some adjustments. Citrus fruit, particularly oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines, perfectly accommodate any meal. Including the richly luscious, wholesome and loaded with Vitamin C Ortanique. In fact, their nutritional benefits “work around the clock” – that is, there’s never a time in the day when the body can’t use their vitamin- and mineral-rich benefits. Citrus Fruit for Breakfast: Of Course Starting the day with citrus fruits and fruit drinks is a natural. There’s the old conventional wisdom that “breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” The protein, vitamins, and other energy-giving ingredients in milk, juice, and eggs are a key step in having enough energy to keep the body moving throughout the day. Remember, the juice isn’t the only healthy part of an orange or grapefruit. The pulp and even the rind are also loaded with protein, minerals, and other healthy ingredients. Lunch: The Midday Meal Is Time for a Pit Stop Many of the snack, fast food, and candy companies promote their products as good for midday pick-me-ups or to avoid the energy crash that always seems to happen mid-afternoon. Even energy drinks promise to keep you going for hours straight “with no crash.” Those foods and drinks work in the short term, but take a toll on your body in the long run. The high sugar contents can lead to weight gain and other health problems. But by eating fresh citrus fruit, you gain a natural boost that can help you keep going without paying for it later. Dinner: End Your Day on a High Note The body restores and regenerates at night, especially during sleep. Why stuff yourself full of fats and carbs when you should be giving it the tools it needs to rebuild the right way?
