Like all citrus fruits, blood oranges are a great source of vitamin C. In fact, a single blood orange has about 75% of the vitamin C you need in a day!

They are also a source of potassium and are high in dietary fiber. They have high amounts of antioxidants, and the anthocyanin that gives them their distinctive color has been shown in studies to have some cancer prevention properties.

When choosing a blood orange, look for ones that are heavy for their size, an indicator of them being juicy. Like all citrus fruits, blood oranges don’t ripen after they’re harvested from the tree, so you’ll want ones that look and smell ripe.
