Mandarin with skin refers to a type of mandarin orange with the skin intact. Typically you would not consume the peel, meaning that only a part of the mandarin would be eaten. When logging 100 grams of mandarin with skin in your diary, it is estimated that only 80% of that is the edible part.
Mandarins are rich in vitamin C, which supports the immune system, and contains antioxidants that help protect cells from damage (oxidative stress).
Mandarins are generally safe to consume. However, citrus fruits in general are rich in organic acids, which, when consumed in excess, can erode tooth enamel, leading to increased sensitivity, tooth decay, and other oral health issues. Citrus fruits can also exacerbate acid reflux symptoms. Individuals with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may benefit from limiting their citrus intake.
There is no specific amount of mandarin that a person should eat per day. Many nutrition guidelines suggest around 200 g or 2 servings of fruit per day, which could include mandarins. A medium-sized mandarin weighs around 88 grams, thus eating one or two mandarins per day can be a healthy addition to your diet. However, it is important to include variety of fruits and vegetables in your diet daily to ensure you benefit from a range of nutrients.
Mandarins are not commonly allergenic, but some individuals may experience allergic reactions to citrus fruits, including mandarins. If you have a known allergy to citrus fruits, it's best to avoid mandarins to prevent any adverse reactions.
