Can oranges and seafood be eaten together?

Oranges and seafood can generally be consumed together, but should be eaten in moderation.

For most people, moderate consumption of oranges and seafood is not problematic. Oranges are rich in vitamin C, while seafood provides protein and trace elements. Consuming them together can provide rich nutrition. The vitamin C in oranges helps enhance the absorption of trace elements from seafood, while the protein in seafood helps strengthen immune function and promote health.

As long as one is not allergic to seafood or oranges, and the seafood is fresh and thoroughly cooked to avoid food poisoning, eating oranges and seafood together generally does not pose a health risk. However, since the digestion processes and required environments for seafood and oranges differ, consuming them simultaneously may increase the burden on the gastrointestinal system, potentially causing indigestion. From the perspective of healthy eating, to avoid possible adverse reactions, it is recommended to wait 2-3 hours after eating seafood before consuming oranges or other vitamin C-rich fruits.

When consuming seafood, attention should be paid to its freshness, avoiding spoiled or deteriorated seafood. In daily diets, it is recommended to maintain a balanced dietary structure and diversify food intake to help maintain good health.
