Every thing about 10 Super Health Benefits of Lemons | Vahrehvah :

Lemons are packed with numerous health benefiting nutrients. From digestion aid to fatigue buster, lemons are a great natural remedy. Lemons are a favorite all over the world and an essential food in kitchens everywhere. They are acidic to the taste, but are alkaline-forming in the body. In fact, they are one of the most alkaline-forming foods; this makes them great for balancing a highly acidic condition in the body. According to The Reams Biological Ionization Theory (RBTI), the lemon is the only food in the world that is anionic (an ion with a negative charge). All other foods are cationic (the ion has a positive charge.) This makes it extremely useful to health as it is the interaction between anions and cations that ultimately provides all cell energy. You can try Lemonade Indian Style drink.
