My dear virtual friends, today I made lemon jam.One of the healthiest fruits in the world is lemon, and because of its health and appearance benefits it is used in many recipes.
Recipe
Eight lemons to spend the night in a solution of baking soda, due to pesticides. Wash, cut in half, and cook on medium heat for half an hour. Strain and blend. Measure the mass, add half the weight of sugar and a quarter of the weight of water. Cook, when it boils for 15 minutes. Pour into jars, turn upside down to cool. Keep open in the refrigerator. Who likes sweeter, can also have more sugar.
Lemon is great for detoxifying the body, which is why many people like to drink lemonade, but in fact, lemon juice is not the best way to extract all the healthy nutrients from this fruit.
The best variant is frozen lemon, and consumed together with the peel, because it is actually the healthiest part of this tropical fruit.
Scientists have discovered that lemon peel can significantly improve immunity, and it contains substances that prevent cancer, regulate cholesterol, treat infections and expel parasites and bacteria from the body.
Lemon peel contains 5 to 10 times more vitamins than the fruit itself, and has been shown to destroy colon, lung and breast cancer cells.
The most important thing is that the substances from lemon and its peel destroy only malignant cells, while healthy cells of the organism remain protected.
Doctor and nutritionist Marilyn Grenville claims that the peel of many fruits can improve your health.
Since the rind is very bitter, Grenville recommends freezing the lemon and then grinding it together with the rind, seeds and pulp.
Add grated lemon to tea, smoothie, soup, salad, dessert and you will protect yourself from vicious diseases, scientists say.
It is very important to clean the lemon well from dirt and pesticides with apple cider vinegar
