Sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) is consumed as juice, powder, or extract. Its high vitamin C and antioxidant flavonoids help maintain immune function and skin health.
People take sweet orange daily in capsules, powders, or liquids. Some use it to ease stress or lift mood because of its aroma, but research for that is thin. You can add it to smoothies, juices, or tea.
Oral sweet orange is usually harmless, though large amounts might cause stomach upset. Essential oil applied to skin can make you sun-sensitive, but capsules or powders do not. Talk to a healthcare professional before starting any supplement.
