Benefits of Kaghzi lime
Kaghzi lime rich in vitamin “C” is very beneficial for our health. The health benefits of Kaghzi limes are discussed below-
Lose weight:
Vitamin “C” in Kaghzi lime helps to reduce excess body fat and pectin fiber to reduce appetite.
Getting up every morning and drinking lemon juice with water, salt, and honey to taste will help you to control your appetite throughout the day.
This substance called pectin fiber keeps the stomach full for a long time after it enters the body.
As a result, the tendency to eat repeatedly will be reduced. Which will start to lose weight.
Increasing immunity:
Kaghzi limes are rich in vitamin “C”. Vitamin C is a nutrient that can help boost our immune system.
Vitamin “C” also helps increase white blood cell production, which helps protect our body against infections and diseases.
To increase body performance:
After waking up and drinking Kaghzi lime juice on an empty stomach, the pH level inside the body is balanced.
It is always good to have a pH level of 6.375 in our blood for healthy working life.
The citric acid in lemons maintains the pH balance of the blood.
As a result, the body becomes so strong from inside and outside that it does not take long for the body’s performance to increase.
Enhances skin beauty:
Kaghzi lime enhances the beauty of the skin. What thousands of beauty products could not do, can turn into a lemon.
The vitamin “C” and other antioxidants in lemons restore the skin’s lost radiance.
In addition to reducing the impression of age, it also plays a special role in reducing blackheads and wrinkles.
Prevents kidney stones:
The citric acid in lemons helps prevent kidney stones. Many times it helps to break down the stones that have accumulated in the kidneys.
Even the citric acid present in lemons prevents the formation of stones called ‘calcium oxalate’ in the kidneys. ‘Calcium oxalate’ is one of the most common kidney stones.
The citric acid present in lemon also helps in expelling wastes from the colon, gallbladder, and liver.
One study found that people who ate more citrus fruits had a lower risk of developing kidney stones.
Bad breath is eliminated:
After eating raw onion, raw garlic or fish, a strong odor often comes out of the mouth. Which can be uncomfortable for others.
A glass of paper lemonade or lemonade can relieve you of this problem.
Keeps the heart well:
Kaghzi limes are a very good source of vitamin “C”. We know that any food that contains vitamin “C” reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke.
Kaghzi lime juice lowers blood cholesterol and keeps the heart-healthy.
Reduces cancer risk:
Studies have shown that people who regularly eat Kaghzi lime have a lower risk of cancer.
Test-tube studies indicate that citrus fruits reduce the risk of colon cancer, throat cancer, pancreatic cancer and breast cancer.
Some Warnings of Paper Lemonade:
- If one has been drinking lemonade for a long time, it is good for tooth enamel (tooth tissue) to be rinsed or brushed with water after a while (20-30 minutes) after drinking lemonade.
- Lemon seeds are not very useful, so it is better to discard the lemon seeds when making lemonade.
