Lemon is a medicinal alkaline food with a direct effect on fat cells in the body (because overweight people usually have an acidic body). By melting fat deposits, all harmful substances are expelled from the body at the same time, which leads to the strengthening of the organism and the building of strong immunity. Fat deposits are formed more by the accumulation of waste than can be removed by the body in a natural way. Toxins are deposited in fatty deposits. Lemon contains vitamin C, citric acid, limonin, iron, calcium, magnesium, pectin, bioflavonoids. It cures rheumatism, atherosclerosis, hemorrhoids but cleanses the liver, stimulates digestion and fat burning. The most important characteristic of lemons is the high content of vitamin C.
