01 May Lemon Aid
A mainstay for natural household cleaning, lemons now are being promoted to combat high cholesterol, and possibly, cancer
There’s a recommendation circulating the Internet to keep organic lemons in the freezer and grate them onto your foods.
This recipe follows an array of published claims that lemons are antiviral, antibacterial and an emerging anti-cancer weapon. Though some of the latest claims are not valid, an investigation by www.snopes.com has clarified that some preliminary studies do point to health benefits.
“Recent studies have further shown that limonoids inhibit the development of cancer in laboratory animals and in human breast cancer cells as well as reducing cholesterol," the investigation found.
