Gargling orange juice helps fight gingivitis and stomatitis. An infusion made from the rind of oranges aids digestion. In beauty treatment the pulp is often used to make face-masks combating premature aging and wrinkles. The juice is an important ingredient in toning and astringent lotions.<br \/>\nOranges can be prepared in many ways: they can be juiced, made in to marmalades or jams, salad dressings and liquors. Using the rind, wonderful candied fruit can be made which are excellent in sauces, desserts and jams.<br \/>\nBlood oranges are excellent natural supplements, since they are so rich in substances which combat the everyday problems that your body faces.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Red oranges perform many actions which are beneficial: Very high in Vitamin C This heightens the body\u2019s resistance to various chemical, physical and environmental factors.
