When life gives you lemons...


Lemons

Of all the citrus fruits, lemon is the most potent de-toxifier. It kills intestinal parasites such as roundworms and dissolves gallstones.

Limonene, the volatile oil responsible for the distinctive lemon aroma, even helps treat some forms of cancer especially breast cancer.

If taken in the morning, lemon juice is known to improve liver function and has been used to help eliminate kidney stones.

The organic acids in all citrus fruits stimulates digestive juices and relieves constipation – especially lemons.

Although a lemon is acidic in nature, it alkalizes when ingested into the human body.

So when life gives you lemons – eat them, juice them, make lemonade and enjoy the detoxifying effects of this wonderful fruit.
