We all like the distinctive sour taste of lemon juice and that is why it is a key ingredient in drinks and foods such as lemonade. Lemon Trees are evergreen and are  native to China. Lemons are used for a number of purposes and have a long list of benefits.
It is an excellent and rich source of nutrients like calcium, potassium, vitamin C and pectin fiber. It has been known for its therapeutic properties since generations as it helps to strengthen our immune system, cleanse our stomach and is considered to be a blood purifier. It helps to prevent diabetes, constipation, high blood pressure, fever, indigestion and many other problems. It also helps in improving the skin, hair, and teeth. It is well known as a useful treatment for kidney stones, reducing strokes and lowering body temperature. As a refreshing drink, lemonade helps you to stay calm and cool.
Lemon juice, being a natural antiseptic medicine, can also cure problems related to the skin. It can be applied to reduce the pain of sun burn and it helps to ease the pain from bee stings as well. Lemon juice can be applied on the skin for the treatment of acne and eczema. It acts as an anti-aging remedy and can remove wrinkles and blackheads. Diseases like cholera and malaria can also be treated because it acts as a blood purifier.
Lemon is an excellent fruit that fights against problems related to throat infections, due to its well-known antibacterial properties. If a person drinks lemon juice mixed with lukewarm water and honey, it can even help to reduce body weight. Application of lemon juice on the site of old burns can help fade the scars, and since lemon is a cooling agent, it reduces the burning sensation on the skin when you currently have an irritating burn.
It is also turned out to be effective in terms of hair care. Lemon juice applied to the scalp can treat problems like dandruff, hair loss and other problems related to the hair and scalp. If you apply lemon juice directly on the hair, it can give your hair a natural shine. It also helps in maintaining the health of the eyes and helps fight against eye problems. It strengthens the liver by providing energy to the liver enzymes when they are too dilute.
Lemon contains its own set of antiseptic and natural medications and therefore is considered to be a magic bullet for good health.
