Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

fresh orange juice

The fresh oranges will be bought from Sysco. They will be squeezed at the kitchen of School of Allied Health Professional with a juicer. They will either be squeezed the night before or on the same day. The juice will not be treated with additional preservatives or sugar. The brand of the juicer is Kitchen Aid. Eight ounces of fresh orange juice needs approximately two and half oranges. They will be put into 32 oz water bottles that were bought from Sysco, and then store them in the refrigerator. They will be given to the subjects every three or four days.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

concentrated orange juice

The concentrated orange juice will be bought from Sysco then reconstituted. One part of concentrated orange juice needs four parts of water to reconstitute. Then, it will be measured and the reconstituted orange juice will be put into 32 oz water bottles that we bought from Sysco. They will be stored in the refrigerator. The subjects will need to get the reconstituted orange juice every three or four days.
