Tag: Eating lemon peel

Lemons are packed with Vitamin C, providing about 34% of the recommended daily intake in a single fruit. Increasingly, people are eating whole lemons – peel and all. But, is it healthy to eat an entire lemon?

While most people only use lemon juice, the entire fruit, including the peel, pulp, and seeds, is actually edible and packed with nutrients. Exploring whether it's okay to eat a whole lemon involves weighing these nutritional benefits against significant potential risks, particularly related to the fruit's high acidity.
