Live-Dimension 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2008 The saying goes "To much of a good thing is a bad thing". It's true - but I wouldn't worry. I had a quick look and couldn't find anything on this "veins harder" thing, which I find is a little... suss. Unless you are eating like 4 oranges a day I wouldn't even begin to think about it as a problem. I eat what I want, when I want and I've never been sick. The body adepts well, al-bit slowly to ever-changing conditions. These days, saying for example "Not eating carrot will make your hair go grey a year or so earlier" and everyone starts eating them. It's just random "experts" who say these things to make themselves feel big. That's not saying I know eating too much chocolate isn't good. Just use some good old fashioned common-sense.. which isn't that common. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for oranges, I wouldn't worry about it, I'm addicted to caffiene and i'm okay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ivantoar 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2008 Wow, never heard an orange addiction before. Orange is very good for health if you consume it at the right amount. Usually anything that too much will cause negative effect Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted April 1, 2014 I eat around 10-14 mandarines a day. I love them so much and have always done it since i was a kid. I am pregnant now and had tests done for nutrients and everything... And everything is normal. And I have the right amount of vitamins.A doctor once told me that it can be acidy and to limit it down. But I've never had a problem and I can't stop eating them. I am completely addicted, but better oranges than anything else right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
