I'm always happy to share valid health information and here's a great one for summer--- but you might want to continue it for the entire year!I recently learned that if you FREEZE a lemon you can easily use it in foods and drinks! It's a new favorite addition to my healthy lifestyle. I've done it and love the results!
It's easy.
You simply wash your lemon,
FREEZE it for a day,
cut off the ends
and then grate--rind and all.
Store your lemony grated goodness in the fridge and add to water, salads, fish, etc.
Now your body will get to benefit from the added important nutrients in the rind which could help to protect your cells and keep them healthy.
As we get closer to summer, it will be important to protect our skin against the dangers of the sun.
Besides using a quality sunscreen this summer,
did you know that the nutrients in a lemon peel may provide added protection from skin cancer?
Limonene, an important nutrient in the lemon peel has powerful anti-cancer effects. Other nutrients have been found to help with other health issues
--including dissolving gallstones.
Sounds like a great addition to any healthy lifestyle.
(You could also freeze oranges as well. I'm going to try that next!)
Be well, my friends!
