Citrus Peel

• Citrus Peels contains natural d-limonene. This naturally occurring lemony goodness can help dissolve cholesterol and normalize intestinal peristalsis.

• Citrus peel can also provide vitamin C and bioflavonoids as a source of antioxidants that may lend support to your overall health.

Citrus Rind

Citrus pectin has also shown beneficial effects in helping prevent cancer metasis. Being a soluble fiber, it also promotes regularity and helps lower cholesterol.

Lemon Juice

Lemon juice promotes natural detoxification and improves alkalinity in the body by encouraging the production of digestive enzymes and the release of bicarbonate from the pancreas and kidneys.
