Mammarancia grows on the slopes of Mt. Etna.
It is actually the heat from the volcano that produces the red pigmentation.

Mammarancia
Healthier and more good
-
Peel
Sweet-smelling and rich in nutritional properties, it is also excellent for making desserts and infusions. It has digestive and soothing effects and its essential oils have antioxidant properties that benefit the cardiovascular system, lowering cholesterol levels.
-
Pulp
Fragrant, compact and very soft, but not too watery, it melts in your mouth.
It is the heart of the fruit and each segment gives off an irresistible bouquet of flavours and aromas. -
Juice
Very sweet and fresh, it is rich in minerals and vitamins. It has digestive properties and helps to stabilise the digestion. It also acts as an alkalising agent (despite its slightly sour taste) and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Vitamins
The most well-known, vitamin C, good for combating flu and seasonal ills, is not the only vitamin in our fruit. Every orange is also rich in vitamins A and B known, among other things, to promote the absorption of iron.
