What is Orange Juice?
Orange juice is a liquid extract of the orange fruit, known for its refreshing taste and high vitamin C content. It is one of the most widely consumed fruit juices globally and can be found in both fresh and processed forms. Fresh orange juice is typically lower in FODMAPs compared to reconstituted versions, which may contain higher levels of fructose.
