Do you like tangerines and eat them often? Then this article is for you.
We'll tell you how a tangerine differs from a clementine and which is better to buy.
What is the difference between a tangerine and a clementine?
Clementine is an artificially bred type of citrus fruit that combines a mandarin and a king orange.
Tangerines are more aromatic and easier to peel, clementines are sweeter.
As for beneficial properties, clementines surpass tangerines in vitamin C content.
It is enough to eat just two fruits to get the daily requirement of this vitamin.
However, tangerines contain more nobiletin, which helps remove cholesterol from the liver and improves metabolism.
For reference
Mandarin is a small evergreen tree, a species of the genus Citrus of the family Rutaceae; the same word refers to the fruit of this plant.
