In winter, clementines, like other citrus fruits, are our allies. Rich in vitamin C, they are a powerful antioxidant, boost our immune system and help reduce fatigue. Little balls of energy, in short, that we would be wrong to deprive ourselves of? Certainly, but consume in moderation all the same. There is in fact an ideal quantity that should not be exceeded to fully benefit from their virtue, without gaining weight.
At 10 a.m., for snack, for dessert… In winter, clementines accompany us throughout the day. A little essential that we generally consume in pairs, or even more. After all, it’s just fruit. Yes, but they also contain sugar! So, like all good things, you should not overdo it. How many clementines can you enjoy daily?
The recommendations call for five fruits and vegetables to eat each day, or two to three servings of fruit during the day. For clementines, it takes two to make one serving of fruit.
Are we at risk of getting sick if we exceed these doses? No, but the danger is mainly weight gain. Fruits contain fructose, a naturally occurring sugar. Clementines are average, with 8.6 grams per 100 grams of fruit.
However, it is important to consume them in moderation. “Taking the quantity of three fruits per day as a guideline, you can go up to six clementines daily, provided you do not consume other fruits. If you want to eat an apple, there are two servings of fruit left during the day. We can therefore add four clementines maximum. However, be careful not to confuse clementines and tangerines. The latter are larger and count as a fruit in their own right.
