About Half lemon
Half a lemon is a vibrant, tangy fruit commonly associated with Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, though its use spans globally. Packed with vitamin C, it boosts immunity, aids in collagen production, and helps combat oxidative stress. It contains small amounts of potassium, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. Half a lemon is roughly 30-35 calories, making it a low-calorie addition to dressings, marinades, drinks, and dishes. The acidic juice is known for promoting digestion and supporting liver health. Its pectin content and citric acid may also contribute to heart health by reducing cholesterol. However, the high acidity can aggravate conditions such as acid reflux or damage tooth enamel with frequent use. A versatile ingredient, half a lemon brings freshness and zest to savory and sweet recipes while offering numerous health benefits when consumed in balance.
