Lemon (Citrus limon) is high in vitamin C and other antioxidants closely linked to immune system health and diuretic effects on the body. Lemons contain high concentrations of minerals and vitamins, making this juice, despite the sour taste, extremely popular in cooking and alternative health remedies.
