Do you think lemon is luscious? What's that song, 'Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet, but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.' None other fruit of the lemon is quite possible to eat.
The herbalists in Germany use lemon peel as an herbal remedy and they find that it's a tremendous aid to digestion.
I think of lemon as a beauty aid. Did you know that rubbing some lemon juice on your teeth will whiten them and far safer than those other chemicals and solutions they are selling.
You can even put lemon juice on your skin. It evens out the tone of the skin and makes your skin shine. If you have blond hair or gray hair, some lemon juice in your hair will also make your hair shine and smell just wonderful.
One of my favorite remedies anytime I have a sore throat is to make myself a cup of hot lemonade. I boil some water, put a big spoon of honey in the hot water and then squeeze the juice of the lemon in there, and drink it right then.
You might be saying, well of course that would help deal with the sore throat or cold because lemon is full of vitamin C, but actually it's the flavonoids in the lemon that are having the most powerful effect.
