Lemon belongs to the family Rutaceae and belongs to the genus Citrus.


Lemon, also known as foreign lemon, is one of the main cultivated fruit trees in Europe and the United States.


Lemon occupies the third place in the world citrus industry, accounting for about 9% of the world's total citrus output.


The main producing countries are Italy, the United States and Spain.


Lemonade needs to be paid attention to.


1. As long as you feel that the lemon slices are insipid and tasteless, you can change them.


A lemon slice can be brewed 1.2 times at a time.


If there is more, there will be no taste and aroma, so it can only be regarded as drinking water.


2. Fresh lemon water had better be soaked once a day, because the nutrients in the lemon have been almost completely released after soaking.


There is no nutritional value to continue to use fresh lemon water in the next few days.


3. The thickness of lemon slices should not be too thick, and about 5mm is the best.


The effects of lemons are as follows:


1. Clearing heat and resolving phlegm


Lemon can also remove phlegm.


Lemon peel is more effective in relieving phlegm than citrus.


Hot and humid weather in summer, if you do not pay attention to diet, the internal dampness of the human body and the external dampness of the natural climate sense each other, dampness and turbid accumulation for a long time can produce phlegm.


Therefore, more phlegm in summer and throat discomfort, lemon juice with warm water and a small amount of salt, the throat accumulation of sputum can be successfully coughed up.


2. Shengjin relieves summer heat and appetizers


Despite the sour and slightly bitter taste of lemon food, you can't eat fresh food like other fruits.


But lemon peel is rich in aromatic volatile components, which can invigorate summer heat, appetizer and awaken the spleen.


Summer humid, many people are tired, often have a poor appetite after long hours of work or study and drink a glass of lemon bubble water, and open the appetite.


3. Prevention of cardiovascular disease


Lemon is rich in vitamin C and vitamin P, which can enhance vascular elasticity and toughness, and can prevent and treat hypertension and myocardial infarction symptoms.


In fact, the lemon water can not be too cold.


Otherwise not only the fragrance can not be soaked out, but also the micro-C has good heat resistance under acidic conditions, and it can not be soaked without slightly hot blisters.


So in fact, the lemonade temperature should be controlled at 60 ℃-70 ℃, and the lemon water must be light.


Everyone knows that it is best to soak lemons fresh, so they will buy a fresh lemon slice to soak, so how to keep the unfinished lemons fresh?


In fact, the storability of lemons is very good, and the main problem of lemon storage for a long time is that the surface will dry, but the surface can still be soaked when dry.


If you want the surface to be juicy, we can spread some honey on the cut of the lemon to retain water.


Then wrap it in plastic wrap, then put it in the box, and finally put it in the refrigerator, basically no problem for half a month.
