Fresh Oranges For Bruncheon Tray
■V-.K-MMi> AM CTM———W—BWMW——— —i mi. -
Fresh fruit is a “must” for any bruncheon, but here’s something a
bit different you’ll want to try . . . refreshing California oranges, cut
in a variety of ways and served on a tray of crisp greens. The juicy
tang of the fresh oranges not only perks up appetites, but the oranges
also furnish you with important health benefits you need to start your
day right.
Each whole orange has more health values than ever before realized
... especially since scientists have pointed out the benefits of the citrus
bioflavonoids found in the golden orange. These bioflavonoids work to
gether with vitamin C to help you to better health, particularly in cases
such as colds, other respiratory infections, childbirth, and surgery,
where your tiny blood vessel walls need strengthening. There are up to
ten times more of these citrus bioflavonoids in the whole peeled oranges
than in the strained juice alone ... that’s why it is such a good idea to
serve fresh oranges often.
