Pregnancy guidance
RecommendedRaw whole oranges are highly recommended during pregnancy as an exceptional source of nutrients. They provide folate for fetal spine development, vitamin C for iron absorption, and dietary fiber that prevents constipation. The FDA advises washing whole oranges under running water before peeling so your hands and utensils stay clean. Eat whole fresh orange segments rather than drinking juice to benefit from natural pectin fiber.
