The number of calories in an orange varies depending on its size and variety, but generally:
- A medium orange (about 140 grams) contains approximately 66 to 73 calories
- A large orange (around 210 grams) can have about 76 to 86 calories
- Smaller oranges or peeled portions have fewer calories, for example, 43 calories for a small 120g orange without skin
On average, a typical orange provides around 70 calories, along with about 1.3 grams of protein, 16-17 grams of carbohydrates (including fiber and sugars), and very little fat (around 0.2 grams)
. Thus, if you are consuming a standard medium orange, you can expect roughly 70 calories. Larger oranges will have more calories proportionally
