Do You Freeze Your Lemons?

What are the health benefits of lemon when it relates to cancer? Lemons have a unique source of flavonoid compounds, which offer incredible anti-cancer and antioxidant properties.

In addition to the Vitamin C found in lemon juice, which is already a very well known alternative cancer treatment in its own right, the peel of the lemon also offers many health benefits, one of the most important being that lemon peel can help to eradicate toxins in your body. This may be why lemons for cancer are being studied and touted as a great remedy.

Freezing Lemons

Buy some organic lemons, wash them thoroughly, and store it in the freezer. Once frozen, you should shred or grate the entire lemon without peeling it first. You can sprinkle it on your favorite food, such as rice, pasta, soup and salads. You can add it to seltzer, to smoothies and other drinks.

Why do this? Because the lemon peel contains 5 to 10 times more vitamins than the lemon juice itself and the peel is the part that is usually wasted. Not only that, but the peel helps to get rid of toxins in the body.

But wait, there’s more. Lemon is effective in killing cancer cells because it is allegedly as strong as chemotherapy.

• It is antibacterial

• It is antiviral

• It aids in digestion

• It can be used to treat acne

• It helps to regulate blood pressure

• It fights against parasites and worms
