Ever make guacamole or fruit salad and your avocados or bananas turn brown in hardly no time at all? Squeeze some lemon juice right over the top to avoid the brown spots.
(9) Water
Adding a lemon to your water or hot tea helps enhance the flavor. Since lemons are one of the most alkaline foods, drinking lemon water everyday will balance your pH levels.
(10) Weight Loss
Lemons are high in pectin fiber, which helps fight hunger cravings. Their alkaline power and polyphenols help speed up your metabolism and assist with weight loss. Also helps naturally rid your body of toxins.
(11) Sore Throat
Organic lemon tea will help a sore throat. Organic tea is better because of the high fluoride content in regular tea. Don’t get me started on fluoride! Lemons act as a natural disinfectant on bacteria. If you don’t want tea, squeeze the juice from 3 lemons into a glass with a tablespoon of honey. Drink this every three to four hours.
(12) Air Freshener
Fill a pot with water. Add lemon juice  and the peels. You can also add cinnamon sticks, cloves, apple skins, cranberries or whatever else you’d like. Simmer. It will freshen and moisturize the room!
The amazing uses for lemons are endless.
