Oranges nutrition: calories, protein and portion sizes

In this Fineli Release 20.0 reference, 100 g provides about 46 kcal and 0.6 g protein. Reference food and preparation: raw, peeled. Match the edible weight and preparation below, or use the current label for your own product.

Quick answer

An example 150 g edible portion of oranges (raw, peeled) supplies about 69 kcal, 0.8 g protein and 3.1 g fiber. This is a scaled food-composition estimate, not a recommended serving size.

Oranges: nutrition per 100 g and example portion

Reference preparation: raw, peeled. The exact source name is “Orange without skin” (Fineli food 11045). Available carbohydrate excludes fiber and is not the same measure as US Total Carbohydrate.

Values are rounded after scaling. A small reported amount may round below 0.1 g; a missing value is marked Not available rather than treated as zero. This selected extract does not include sugar, sodium or micronutrient amounts; the full Fineli database contains information beyond these tables.

How to weigh oranges

Weigh the peeled segments, excluding skin and any discarded parts. The table does not describe juice. An orange's whole weight is useful for shopping, while its edible weight is the appropriate basis for this nutrition entry.

Calculate your own oranges portion

For the 150 g example, multiply the source amounts by 150 ÷ 100 = 1.5. The unrounded energy calculation is 45.7 × 1.5 = 68.55 kcal, displayed as approximately 69 kcal. Use the same factor for protein, available carbohydrate, fat and fiber.

For another amount, replace 150 with your own edible weight. Keep the preparation as raw, peeled; if your food is prepared differently, choose a matching reference or calculate its recipe instead.

How preparation changes the estimate

Juicing changes the serving form and removes much of the fruit's structure. Canned oranges in syrup and sweetened orange drinks need separate entries. This table does not estimate vitamin C because that nutrient is not included in the source extract used here.

Meal ideas using oranges

Use these combinations as menu ideas and adjust the amounts to your appetite and preferences. Each added ingredient belongs in the complete meal estimate.

  • Add orange segments to a spinach and chickpea salad.
  • Serve orange with a bowl of plain yogurt and a small portion of nuts.

The following are separate reference foods, shown per 100 g for orientation. Check the preparation column: dry, raw and cooked values are not interchangeable, and equal gram weights are not necessarily equivalent portions.

Frequently asked questions

How many calories are in 150 g of oranges?

This raw, peeled reference supplies about 69 kcal per 150 g edible portion. Match the preparation state and check a package label when available.

Does the preparation of oranges matter?

Juicing changes the serving form and removes much of the fruit's structure. Canned oranges in syrup and sweetened orange drinks need separate entries. This table does not estimate vitamin C because that nutrient is not included in the source extract used here.

How do I calculate a different portion?

Multiply each per-100 g nutrient amount by your edible serving weight divided by 100. Match raw, dry, cooked or drained weight to the reference and include sauces or cooking additions separately.
