Common Questions

Health risks of lemon and its peel

Consuming lemon peel may pose health risks due to potential pesticide residues. To minimize exposure, it is advisable to thoroughly wash and scrub lemons before zesting or consuming the peel. Moreover, citrus fruits are rich in organic acids, which, when consumed in excess, can erode tooth enamel, leading to increased sensitivity, tooth decay, and other oral health issues. Citrus fruits can also exacerbate acid reflux symptoms. Individuals with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may benefit from limiting their citrus intake.

Are there any allergies associated with eating lemon with its skin?

While consuming lemon with its skin is generally safe for most people, some individuals may have allergies to citrus fruits, including lemons. These allergies can manifest as skin rashes, itching, or swelling. If you experience any adverse reactions after consuming lemon with its skin, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for advice.
