About Lemon
Lemon, a vibrant citrus fruit, is renowned for its tangy flavor, high nutritional value, and versatility in cuisines worldwide. Native to Asia, lemons are now staples in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Western cooking. They’re rich in vitamin C, an antioxidant that supports immunity, skin health, and iron absorption. Lemons also contain small amounts of potassium, vitamin B6, and fiber and are low in calories, making them a nutritious choice. The fruit’s acidity enhances flavors in dishes and drinks while aiding digestion and adding hydration when consumed in water. However, excessive lemon consumption may irritate the stomach or erode tooth enamel due to its high citric acid content. Whether used in marinades, salad dressings, desserts, or beverages, lemons are a flavorful and healthy addition to the diet when enjoyed in moderation.
