5 reasons why the humble lemon is one of the best super foods

1. One lemon has more than 100% of your daily vitamin C intake.

2. Citrus flavonoids found in lemon may inhibit the growth of cancer cells, particularly with colon, prostate and breast cancers.

3. Lemons help to cleanse the digestive tract and allow food to digest properly.

4. These little yellow superheroes aid in the production of antibodies in the blood that kill off invading microorganisms and prevent illness and infection. If you're feeling poorly, then a mean lemon is your best friend.

5. A cup of warm water with lemon can help with weight loss and lower cholesterol.
