Welcome to HCM,
Everyone is individual. You seem to be healthy with no chronic illnesses or allergies. Oranges contain a great source of vitamin C, fiber and nutrients in general. Three oranges per day should not harm you in anyway as part of a healthy, well-balanced diet. Regards, Kathryn Shattler, MS,RDN
