Citrus and Cancer

There is evidence that citrus can help reduce the risk of developing lung cancer. Consuming foods rich in beta cryptoxanthin, the orange-red carotenoids that are found in high amounts in oranges as well as corn, pumpkin, papaya, tangerines, and red bell peppers, may lower lung cancer risk.
Drinking about 2 glasses of orange juice a day, increased the vitaminc C concentrations in the blood by 40 to 60 percent.
