Lime

For Arteriosclerosis:

Lime can help heal arteriosclerosis and the best part of it all is that it has zero side effects.

 

For Arthritis:

One of the many causes of arthritis is an excess of uric acid that builds up inside the body. Uric acid is also one of those waste products that can be eliminated in the body through normal urination. Unfortunately, when too much of it builds up, it can make the pain and inflammation from arthritis worse. The citric acid found in citrus fruits, such as limes, is a solvent in which uric acid can dissolve, increasing the amounts that are eliminated in urine. In general, citrus fruits have anti-inflammatory properties and they can be used for a number of inflammation problems.

 

For Constipation:

Primarily, the ample amounts of acids present in lime help clear the excretory system by washing and cleansing the tracts, just as some acids are used to clean floors and toilets. The roughage in lime is also helpful in easing constipation; however, the most beneficial element is the high acidity. An overdose of lime juice with salt also acts as a great purgative with zero side effects, thus providing relief from constipation.

 

For Diabetes:

According to the American Diabetes Association, limes and other citrus fruits are known to be a kind of diabetes super food for a number of reasons. Mainly, the high levels of soluble fiber found in limes make it a great dietary aid to help regulate the body’s absorption of sugar into the bloodstream, lowering the occurrence of blood sugar spikes that are serious risk to diabetic patients. Furthermore, limes and other citrus fruits are also known to have low glycemic index, which means that they won’t cause unexpected spikes in glucose levels, in addition to the benefits of soluble fiber’s effect.

 

For Fatigue:

Lime can help cure fatigue and the best part of it is that it has zero side effects.

 

For Fever:

If someone you know, or you yourself, is experiencing a fever, limes and lime juice can be of great importance. Generally speaking, citrus fruits have reducing qualities, and if the fever is very high, the patient’s diet should be restricted to both lemon juice and water. However, if the fever is mild or moderate, other fruit juices, especially lime juice, can be administered in order to bring the fever down to a normal level. Vitamin C found in high concentrations in citrus fruits can naturally lower the temperature of the body.

 

For Gout:

There are two known main causes of gout. The first one is the accumulation of free radicals inside the body, and the second one is the accumulation of toxins in the body, primarily due to uric acid. Limes can help prevent both of these causes. It’s also a great source of antioxidants and detoxifiers (vitamin C and flavonoids) which help lower the number of free radicals as well as detoxifying the body.

 

For Gum Problems:

Vitamin C deficiency is one of the root causes of gum problems (scurvy, which gives bleeding and spongy gums) and microbial growth. Sometimes, the ulcers come from physical trauma. In all of these instances, limes can help. The vitamin C cures scurvy, Flavonoids inhibit microbial growth and potassium and flavonoids also help heal ulcers and wounds.

 

For Heart Disease:

The same soluble fiber which can help diabetics maintain their blood sugar levels can help reduce blood pressure and eliminate the presence of LDL cholesterol (the “bad” cholesterol). Furthermore, soluble fiber can help cut down on inflammation of the blood vessels, which is known preventative measure against heart disease, heart attacks and strokes.

 

For Hemorrhoids:

Piles is just another term for hemorrhoids, an uncomfortable condition that happens in the anal region and it can result in bleeding and great discomfort; both can happen during excretion and overall activity. In addition, it can also lead to certain forms of cancer, and limes can help prevent their formation or recurrence. Since lime helps heal ulcers and wounds in the digestive system and excretory system while providing relief from constipation, it eradicates all the root causes of piles.
