When I slice a whole orange I like to eat the whole slice, the orange skin and all. Is that good for me?

.The skin won’t harm you on its own, but wash it good first (to get rid of any dirt or pesticide residue) and also realize many oranges in supermarkes are dyed to make their color brighter and more pleasing. Try to buy from fruit stands or go organic so you can feel more comfortable that "things" haven’t been done to give the fruit more visual appeal, but might make consuming the skin unhealthy.

    Its not good or bad but i wouldnt reccomend it. Oranges are naturally meant to have the inside eaten, not the outside

    my mom tells me the white part of the orange is a cancer fighter. and the darker part of the fruit or veggies has the most vitamins. so eat up!
