And so what is lemon good for?
First of all, this fruit is an excellent remedy for the cold
season. It strengthens the immune system, increases the
body's resistance. No wonder citric acid is often found in
the composition of antiviral drugs and the so-called cold
medicines.
Vitamin P is essential for the body, as its deficiency can
lead to vascular diseases. This vitamin prevents internal
bleeding and subcutaneous effusions by strengthening
capillaries and other vessels. It relieves leg pain caused
by varicose veins.
Favorably affects blood vessels and potassium, which is in
the pulp. It is useful not only for the cardiovascular system
but also for the urinary tract, in particular for the kidneys.
The beneficial properties of lemon are also reflected in its
antiseptic action. The juice helps to heal wounds, prevents
inflammation, and destroys bacteria. In some countries,
the cut fruit is applied directly to a wound or an animal or
insect bite.
Ascorbic acid, which is part of this fruit, is an antioxidant.
It protects against early aging, prevents the appearance
of premature wrinkles, rejuvenates, and cleanses the skin.
B vitamins normalize sleep, reduce fatigue, help fight
depression and give energy. They also protect against
dandruff and pimples on the skin, improve the condition
of the nails. Vitamin A is good for vision. The zest reduces
gas formation and improves digestion.
It is this combination of a wide range of substances useful
for the human body that makes lemon an indispensable
food product and a valuable medicinal and cosmetic
product.
