Lime fruits
are essentially one of the very best fruits available to mankind.
You can
think otherwise, but I cannot help it. You can tell me which, and I am eager to
research that information and come to a reasonable opinion.
Feel free to
have and share your views. But remember learning is still a process. I think too
that I can benefit more from your comments and opinions.
Lime fruits
fall within the citrus fruit family which includes lemons, oranges, grape
fruits and tangerines.
When I was a
boy of roughly 10 years, I remember grandmothers plant them in our big
compound. I remember they were three of the lime trees which always yield a
good harvest.
I am one of
the boys among others who always have a pick at these lime fruits at the
harvest time and enjoy its medicinal juice.
As a boy, we
all know the limes were fruits, but we know nothing of what they did to our
body. To prevent us small boys from picking much at them, the older ones will be
telling us it suck at our bloods and make them useless or weak apparently from
keeping us away from the juicy fruits.
Years later,
when I am into secondary or grammar school, I had better information on what
fruits including limes did to the our body system.
So, the food
masters controlling food supply to the school always ensure we are regularly
supply with some fresh fruits including oranges and tangerines, since these are most
easy to obtain in bulk form the then the lime fruits. People always detest
limes due to its sour acidic taste.
In the
citrus fruits group, lime fruits later came first to make history in curing the
disease called scurvy. My apology to lemons.This feat is credited to the English Royal Navy. It
became their military secret for years against all other nations navies. This
made the British navy a power on the high seas for years.
Lime fruits
also made marks as the first ever fruit juice to be bottled in history.
Enough of
all this historic talks here on lime fruits.
Once again,
let’s get on our main subject lime fruits.
If there is
any fruit or fruit juice that a person should suck before anything else other
than a glass of cold or warm water in the morning on rising up from bed, limes
must be first. Others will tell you that lemons should be first, that is okay
with some because both fruits limes and lemons are from the same family, the
citrus fruits.
You see
limes in dilute form scrub the stomach and intestinal walls. Tell me what this
means to you.
You know the sense in scrubbing a floor, the kitchen sink, the
bath tub and toilet poo right?
This is what
limes, among the citrus fruits does when taken in the morning in dilute form
either in cold or warm water.
Taking this
along with a cup of cucumber fruit will work best as a pre-breakfast meal
before the main breakfast.
This action
will help in keeping the stomach and intestine clean and healthy.
It help
develop and weak immune system into a strong organic form.
It is a plus
for a healthy respiratory system.
The vitamin
C content of lime fruits helps in the absorption of iron compounds in to the
blood stream.
The vitamin C factors further helps to prevent a cold or the so
called common cold.
No, vitamin
C does not and will not cure the cold. It only helps in preventing it. It is
this vitamin C that helps in keeping the respiratory system strong and healthy.
I regularly
drank dilute lime juices on waking up from sleep in the morning. First thing is
to gangle the throat and risen the mouth with the juice. The rest go down
inside my stomach.
You can use
lime fruits in many ways that suits you.
It does not
have any minus side effect in the digestive system. It always promotes good
health in dilute form.
In its
undiluted states, it can attack the gum enamels of the teeth. This is its only
drawback because of its citric acid properties.
The oils in
its zest can attack both the skin and eyes if care is not taken. But it is not
that very serious.
Anyway, much care should be taken to avoid contact with the
eyes when the skin is being zested.
I used them
in my bathing water. After robbing myself thoroughly with soap and spongy, the
lime base water washed off all the soapy lathers and keeps my skin clean. Not
only this, my skin stays fresh and it is not a platform for skin diseases.
I hardly get acnes, enzymes, pimples and other skin blemish.
Press the zest into your palms and message your hair and scalp with the oils after bathing.
Every part
of the lime fruits is very useful. The zest and seeds which is mostly discarded
is full of medicinal benefits.
Oils were
mostly obtained from the skin or zests and this can be used in many ways. I
extract it with peanut oil or virgin olive oil for caring my hair.
The zests
when eaten along with the seeds prevent worm formation in the intestines. In
other words, it made the stomach environment unfriendly for the breeding of
unwanted worn that are harmful for the body. This is an antidote for worm
killing.
To your good
health!
