Do you know lemons (Citrus limon) help fight cancer?

October 15,2020
Share:

Well, Citrus limon is among the world’s most popular citrus fruits.


Lemons are very rich in vitamin C, they’re a decent source of potassium and vitamin B6.

What do we derive from lemons?

Enhances immunity: Lemons are a good source of vitamin C, an important nutrient that’s been linked to increased immune health. In fact, gram for gram, there is about the same amount of vitamin C in lemon vs. orange. Not only that, but lemons are also loaded with antioxidants that helps fight inflammation and promote improved immunity.

Helps fight cancer: Lemons are packed with antioxidants and cancer-fighting compounds, Lemons also contain compounds like hesperidin and d-limonene, which have both been shown to have cancer-preventing properties.

Prevents kidney stone: Lemons contain citric acid, which increases urine volume and aid in kidney stone prevention

Increases iron absorption: Iron is an incredibly important mineral for the body. It is one of the main components of hemoglobin, which is found in the red blood cells and helps provide the body with the oxygen that it needs. The vitamin C in lemons helps enhance iron absorption to prevent conditions like iron-deficiency anemia.

Improves skin health: Lemons act as an anti-aging food and helps keep your skin healthy and glowing due to the high antioxidant content. The buildup of free radicals contributes to the aging process, resulting in changes like wrinkles, age spots, dryness and decreased elasticity.
