About Lime

Lime, a vibrant citrus fruit, is packed with flavor and nutrients. Native to Southeast Asia, it has become a cornerstone in many global cuisines, including Mexican, Indian, and Middle Eastern, celebrated for its tangy zest and refreshing juice. Limes are rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and small amounts of potassium and B vitamins, supporting immunity, skin health, and digestion. Their acidic nature can enhance the absorption of nutrients and act as a natural preservative in recipes. Low in calories, limes are a healthy choice for adding flavor without extra fats or sugars. However, their acidity may irritate sensitive stomachs or teeth when consumed in excess. Typically enjoyed fresh, they can be used in beverages, marinades, dressings, or garnishes, offering both a nutritional boost and bold taste.
