You Will Never Throw Away Orange Peels After Watching This

We all know that oranges are good for our health, mainly due to their high vitamin C content. After enjoying this tangy fruit, most of us throw away the peels. But in doing so, we’re missing out on many benefits, as the peels have unique health, beauty and other uses. Here are the top 6 uses of orange peels.

1. Whitens Teeth. Fresh orange peels can reduce the yellow tinge accumulated on your teeth. Simply rub the inside of an orange peel (the white portion) over your teeth for 2 to 3 minutes, then rinse your mouth and teeth with lukewarm water.

2. Lowers Bad Cholesterol. Orange peels can even help reduce LDL or the ‘bad’ cholesterol in the body that increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and heart attacks. The rich pectin, a natural soluble fiber, in the peels helps reduce cholesterol as well as blood pressure levels. Drink orange peel tea twice daily. You can even add flavorful orange zest to foods and beverages.

3. Regulates Bowel Movements. Orange peels even improve digestion. The high dietary fiber in them helps regulate bowel movements, which prevents constipation. After eating a meal, drink a cup of orange peel tea to improve digestion.

4. Fights Aging Signs. The powerful antioxidants in orange peels fight off free radicals. Mix 1 tablespoon each of orange peel powder and oatmeal powder with enough honey to make a paste. Apply this paste on your face and neck area. Allow it to sit for 30 minutes, then rinse it off with cold water.

5. Works as a Natural Air Freshener. The sweet, lemony aroma of orange peels works as a great air freshener. Put a handful of fresh orange peels, a little lemon juice and a few cinnamon sticks in 2 cups of water and boil it for 10 minutes. Strain, allow it to cool and then transfer the liquid into a spray bottle.

6. Repels Mosquitoes and Ants. The citrus smell of orange peels deters ants and also works to repel mosquitoes, flies, and even cats. Grind some orange peels and place the powder in areas where ants, flies and other pests are prone to congregate. To prevent mosquito bites, rub fresh orange peels all over your skin.
