U.S. research says: Eating oranges is better than taking vitamin C.

Reporter Qiu Chunyan reports that oranges are rich in vitamin C, but which method is better than taking vitamin C pills? According to latest reports from foreign media, a new study published in the US Food Science magazine states that food scientists have found that eating oranges is better than simply taking vitamin C and other pills.

Researchers at a certain university in the United States who completed the new study indicated that the special combinations of various antioxidants in oranges will form a special "strong combination", which is better than all kinds of antioxidants. Antioxidants have the effect of relieving cellular aging, preventing the development of various types of cancer, and helping to prevent heart disease.

Researchers also said that fruit is convenient to eat and can be supplemented with other nutrients in addition to vitamins.
