Drain canned fruit well, reserving the juice. In large bowl dissolve gelatin in cold water. Pour boiling water over gelatin mixture. Stir until completely dissolved. Allow to sit for 2 or 3 minutes. Add fruit juices and juice concentrate. Refrigerate until half set. Add pineapple and oranges. Mix well. Refrigerate until firm.
Special Note: Fruit makes a fun, refreshing dessert any time of the day. It's clean, delicious taste comes in so many varieties and can serve as a beautiful enhancement to any meal. And remember to always eat fruit with a meal or for dessert-never on an empty stomach. Fruit is high in natural sugar and is the least complex of the complex carbohydrates. It may therefore encourage direct rises in blood-sugar levels when introduced on an empty stomach. Insulin (the "fat-hormone") is then released by your pancreas to drive the high-sugar food into your fat cells. By combining fruit with more complex foods such as grains and veggies, the sugar combines with the fiber. This may keep blood-sugar and energy levels stable. The result may be a significant increase in energy and an accelerated loss of excess body fat.
