Lemon - Its importance in food and its health benefits.
Lemon is a citrus fruit that is not only rich in vitamin C, but also has excellent antioxidant effects and is rich in soluble dietary fiber. In addition, lemon peels and leaves contain essential oils that give it a characteristic aroma and can be used to make tea. Freshly picked lemons contain about 55% of your daily requirement of vitamin C, which acts as a powerful antioxidant and helps prevent illnesses like colds and flu by boosting your immune system, as well as other antioxidants like polyphenols. , limonoids and caffeic acid. The best way to get all the benefits of a lemon is with its juice, pulp and grated rind. This is important because the essential oil of this fruit is found in the peel. Since 20% of the vitamin C is lost after 8 hours at room temperature or 24 hours when stored in the refrigerator, it is important to chill lemon juice and use it immediately after preparation. When using lemon to prevent anemia, it is important to consume lemon along with other iron-rich foods to promote the absorption of this mineral from the intestine. For acne treatment, drinking a glass of lemon juice every morning is ideal. Due to its versatility, lemon is less used and can be used to remove grease from sinks or kitchens, preventing the growth of microorganisms due to its acidity. In addition, lemon essential oil can be used in diffusers or fragrances for aromatherapy, fragrance and air purification, especially for respiratory infections. Smell can also help improve mood because, when inhaled, it stimulates noradrenaline, a neurotransmitter that acts in the brain. Lemon can also be ingested with water and taken on an empty stomach, which can help with the weight loss process.
