About Lemon wedge

A lemon wedge is a small section of lemon, commonly used as a garnish or flavor enhancer in drinks and dishes across various cuisines. Originating from the lemon tree, which is native to Asia, lemons are now cultivated globally, particularly in Mediterranean regions. Packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, and citric acid, lemon wedges are valued for their immune-boosting properties and their ability to aid digestion, balance pH levels, and detoxify the body. They are a low-calorie and nutrient-dense addition to meals, lending brightness and tang to seafood, salads, and beverages. While the acidity in lemon wedges can erode tooth enamel when consumed excessively, their overall health benefits and versatility make them a staple in kitchens worldwide.
