Oranges are juicy citrus fruits, and one medium orange has about 62 kcal, nearly all from natural sugars and fiber. Eating the whole fruit keeps its fiber, while a glass of juice uses several oranges and leaves most of that fiber behind. Mandarins and clementines are smaller, so they come in lighter per fruit.
Typical portion: A large orange weighs about 185 g peeled and comes to roughly 85 kcal.
