Description The lemon plant forms an evergreen spreading bush or small tree, 3-6 metres (10-20 feet) high if not pruned. Its young oval leaves have a decidedly reddish tint; later they turn green. In some varieties the young branches of the lemon are angular; some have sharp thorns at the axils of the leaves. The flowers have a sweet odour and are solitary or borne in small clusters in the axils of the leaves. Reddish-tinted in the bud, the petals are usually white above and reddish purple below. The fruit is oval with a broad, low, apical nipple and forms 8 to 10 segments. The outer rind, or peel, yellow when ripe and rather thick in some varieties, is prominently dotted with oil glands. The white spongy inner part of the peel, called the mesocarp or albedo, is nearly tasteless and is the chief source of commercial grades of pectin. The seeds are small, ovoid, and pointed; occasionally fruits are seedless. The pulp is decidedly acidic. Health Benefits 1. Support Heart Health Lemons are high in heart-healthy vitamin C and several beneficial plant compounds that may lower cholesterol. 2. Help Control Weight Animal studies show that lemon extract and plant compounds may promote weight loss, but the effects in humans are unknown. 3. Prevent Kidney Stones Citric acid may help prevent kidney stones by increasing urine volume and increasing urine pH, creating a less favorable environment for kidney stone formation . 4. Protect Against Anemia Lemons contain vitamin C and citric acid, which help you absorb non-heme iron from plants. This may prevent anemia. 5. Reduce Cancer Risk Animal studies indicate that D-limonene, a compound found in lemon oil, does have anticancer properties 6. Improve Digestive Health Lemons are made up of about 10% carbs, mostly in the form of soluble fiber and simple sugars.The main fiber in lemons is pectin, a form of soluble fiber linked to multiple health benefits.Soluble fiber can improve gut health and slow the digestion of sugars and starches. These effects may result in reduced blood sugar levels. However, to get the benefits of fiber from lemons, you need to eat the pulp. |
