Does Orange Juice Concentrate Help With Orange juice concentrate contains folate with an estimate...?

Weak Evidence

Evidence Summary

Orange juice concentrate contains folate with an estimated bioavailability of approximately 62% in rat models, lower than some other food sources like broccoli (PMID: 2262810). It has been studied as a calcium fortification vehicle, with vitamin C content declining during storage regardless of fortification status (PMID: 8052582). Unlike grapefruit juice concentrate, orange juice concentrate does not inhibit the presystemic metabolism of drugs like nifedipine, though it may delay gastric emptying when consumed in concentrated form (PMID: 9570001).
