Florida Citrus Fruit Protects Against Birth Defects

Florida citrus fruit contains what many pregnant women consider to be a magical ingredient that helps keep their unborn child healthy. There’s nothing “magical” about folate, but it has been proven to decrease the risk birth defects. One of the B vitamins, folate is abundant in fresh Florida citrus fruit. Instrumental in the creation of healthy DNA, the genetic material in our body’s cells, folate is also essential to the creation of amino acids, protein’s building blocks.

If women consumed the recommended daily dose of folate before becoming pregnant and while pregnant, the American Dietetic Association says up to 75% of traumatic spine and brain birth defects in newborn infants could be prevented.

The folate found in Florida citrus fruit also promotes heart health and can decrease your risk of developing coronary heart disease. Eating fresh Florida oranges every day of your pregnancy to protect your baby’s health is a delicious habit you can follow for the rest of your life to protect your own health.

Next week, FloridaOrange.com will be sending out its final shipments of ripe, juicy, fresh-picked Florida Honey tangerines and Florida Temple oranges. Why not send a Florida citrus gift box to your favorite pregnant mom? Or if you’re pregnant, order a crate of your favorite Florida citrus fruit for yourself!

Florida Citrus Treats for Your Valentine’s Day Sweetie

Valentine’s Day is coming up fast. Husbands and wives, moms and dads, sons and daughters and sweethearts everywhere are grappling with the question of what to get their sweetie and the special family members and friends they love most. A heart-shaped box of chocolates is the traditional Valentine’s Day standard but has lost popularity as Americans have become more health conscious.

If your sweetie has been watching what they eat and hitting the gym to burn off excess holiday calories and trim down for swimsuit season, a box of candy doesn’t exactly send a supportive message. You need to think outside the box and look for a Valentine’s Day gift that is as healthy as it is delicious. A Florida citrus gift basket filled with sweet, juicy Florida oranges or taste-tempting Florida citrus treats is the perfect way to say “I love you” and show you care about your honey’s health and well-being.

In addition to our mouth-watering, fresh-picked Florida citrus fruit, Florida Orange offers a tempting array of delicious Florida citrus goodies, including fabulous cookies with a delightful tropical flavor, wonderful citrus-flavored bundt cakes and luscious jars of Florida marmalades, jellies and genuine Orange Blossom Honey.
