You can eat it in the afternoon. Orange on an empty stomach in the morning can cause acid reflux.

Doctors say that orange has a cooling effect, so it is best to eat it in the afternoon. By doing this both your health and skin get benefits. Actually, apart from Vitamin C, oranges also contain many other elements. It boosts our immunity and also improves collagen production.
Coconut Water and Yogurt
Like oranges, there is confusion among people regarding the consumption of coconut water and curd during winter. Experts say that it is best to eat both these things in the afternoon in winter. Most people stop eating curd in winter. They feel that as soon as they eat it they start sneezing. Ayurveda says that probiotic foods like curd maintain the balance of our Vata dosha.
Eating curd keeps the stomach healthy even in winter. Due to calmness of heat in the stomach, there is no problem of not only indigestion but also acne or pimples on the skin. That's why Ayurveda says that we must consume things like curd and coconut water even in winter. The biggest benefit of coconut water is stomach health.
