I don't think it would be too harmful, as oranges are good fruits with heaps of vitamin c (so do mangoes, by the way), but are also very acidic, so it could be hard on your stomach. As good as they are when you're sick or feeling down, I think it's best to limit yourself to maybe two or three a day.

common sense and school



1. Rinse your mouth with water afterward to rinse the acid off your teeth.
2. Drink some water. Too much vitamin C can cause kidney stones to form, and keeping hydrated will prevent that.
3. Make sure you get other nutritious foods. 5 oranges are better than 1 orange and a plate of bacon, but 4 oranges and a serving of blueberries will be better than 5 oranges.
4. No matter how many oranges you eat, you will not turn orange.



YES! 2 us enough. It means that you aren't eating other things. If they are the little mandarin oranges that we get only in December then 5 would be okay but you might P**P your pants if you eat too many!



I once knew a boy who ate so many oranges, he had to get his stomach pumped. I'm not sure how many he ate, but I'm sure it was more than five.



Not really... I eat 3 oranges everyday + drink 1 bottle of orange juice.
Healthy still...



of course! i can eat lemons all day long, and theyre pretty close to oranges...
