The citrus fruits have more benefits than others. The lemon has great benefits as well as the juice of the lemon as well. Either freshly squeezed lemons or store-bought lemon juice have the same type of benefits. Lemon juice is good for a source of Vitamin C, Health News reported.
One health benefit is that lemons and lemon juice can protect your body against germs and bacteria. This is another fruit that has been known for its therapeutic properties for generations. There are so many more uses for lemons than just being a refreshing sweetener for your water (although there are some incredible health benefits of lemon water).
The beloved fruit can act as a cleaning solution, a beauty fix, and even a teeth whitening solution. But did you know that just sleeping next to a cut lemon on your nightstand can reap some of these benefits, as well? By merely inhaling the scent of a lemon, your body experiences most (if not all) of its beneficial homeopathic purposes.
Some of these include decreased anxiety levels, reduced stress, an overall calming sensation, increased alertness, potential reduction of blood pressure, calmed allergies (by reducing airway inflammation), and increased productivity.
