Citric Acid and its Remedies
Citric Acid is present in large quantities in juicy fruits such as limes, oranges, grapefruits, kiwis, strawberries, apples, pears, cherries and raspberries and vegetables such as mushrooms, potatoes, tomatoes, peas and asparagus.
There are many benefits that citric acid has to offer, including:
1. Boosting Renal Health: Citric acid ensures proper functioning of the kidneys and prevents kidney stones.
2. Fighting Free Radicals: Citric acid can neutralize the effects of free radicals, which trigger the growth of tumors.
3. Improving Mineral Absorption: Citric acid mixes with minerals and metals easily, improving their absorption into the body.
4. Revitalizing the Skin: Citric acid is a common ingredient in face masks and skin products. It regenerates skin tissue, slowing down the aging process. Citric acid can have a depigmenting effect and can lighten freckles.
5. Soothing A Sore throat: Citric acid can reduce the inflammation caused by tonsillitis. Gargling with a combination of citric acid and water clears throat infection by killing the infection-causing germs.
6. Curbing Nausea: Citric acid can alleviate nausea by reducing gastric acidity.
