A quick brief up on the lemon:
Lemon is the yellow fruit available most widely and commonly all year round. The variety of lemon most popular is called the ‘Eureka’ lemon. Lemon is high in the content ‘citric acid’ and is thus sour to taste. This fruit is most commonly used for its juicy pulp which is used in food and beverages and also as cleansing agents. The rind or the zest is widely used for baking purposes. It is a rich source of Vitamin C. 100 grams of Lemon suffices for 64% of the daily recommended dose.

Typically it takes 3 lemons to make one ml of lemon essential oil. Whoa! That’s some concentrated stuff right? The content in the lemon essential oil is majorly Limonene and a small percentage of monoterpenes.
Well this essential oil like most others is volatile and the aroma is tangy, refreshing and is proven to enhance and uplift the mood of an individual.
