New uses for lemons

Beverly is a "Grinch"..!!!!!

Lemons also prevent avocados from browning if you use a half and want to save the other. The lemon will only prevent browning for about 1 day though.

I love to squeeze fresh lime juice in my soups and vegetables.

I have been useing lemon as long i can remember. it's a supper remedy. for almost anything. it's also a relieved for itching. generally!!

the sad thing is these are things I have seen my entire family do, passed down from generation to generation, its safer too without added chemicals!!! Green Cleaning you should check it out for all natural cleaning supplies

my mom and now I use lemon peel as a room deodorizer. Simply peel lemon into strips ( you can use orange too) and squeeze the rind into the air away from you.

As a teenager I used lemons to lighten my hair (1950s) as my parents wouldn't let me color it. Be carefrul tho to not get on skin; combination of sun and lemons causes skin problems. Lemon peel in cake batter makes yummy lemon or vanilla cake. These are all old time remedies and much better than today's chemicals. I love lemons in garbage disposal.

"Eating lemons" is supposed to be bad for your teeth and will erode the enamel, not good...

Sure these tips are not new but many of the younger adults are not familiar and these tips are worth repeating. Why all the comments about this not being new, come on people other may not be aware of these tips.

I use lemons to deodorize and clean my microwave!

Well, these are new to me. I didnt know you could use lemons like this. I really like the apple idea and im gonna have to try that next time i slice apples :)

The article did not claim to include "new" information as many of you nay-sayers point out. How about a Thanks for the infomation many of us either did not know and/or forgot from our elders?! Thanks from those who appreciate the article.

A lot of the stuff is not new, but sometimes it nice to have a reminder!

even Jehovah's Witnesses! thanks Ahmad

also, suck on a lemon to get rid of the hiccups. this actually works as i have tried and done this many times.

pretty funny after michael just tried this. HEY LOOK...use lemons in garbage disposal,what a great idea, I never thought of that before!

I use lemons to clean my microwave, just squeeze a lemon into a microwave safe dish and nuke it till the water boils, the steam and lemon break up the grease and grime and you only have to wipe the inside with a towel, works better then anything I have ever used and is food safe...and the house smells yummy too.

I've read that drinking the juice of half a lemon in 7 ounces of water in the morning is like a shower for the inside of your body. Lemons are loaded with vitamin C, contain many other vitamins and minerals including magnesium. Also great for digestion. Check out the many benefits online.

gee people..... they may be new to some people.... lighten up

Lemons has spiritual property... many Indians (India) believe. It may be true or not but we all follow.
1) Hang a lemon at the entrance of your house and change it every month. (Bad spirits doesn't enter the house)
2) Place a lemon in a glass of water and change it every day. The lemon should be visible in the hall way for anyone who visits the establishment. (This is specially meant for business establishments). Profitability grows.
3) When any new vehicle is purchased, four lemons are placed under each tire and the vehicle is run over it. This prevents from future accidents and mechanical trouble. (Instead of 1000 automobile parts the Indians believe in a single lemon :-))
4) Hang a lemon (may be in new sox) in front of your car grill, again this prevents accidents and death.
This forum is not enough to write many more spirituality about lemons. It doesn't cost much, but if it works its great hence we continue with it.
