Lemon vs. Lime: Different Benefits — Immunity for Lemon, Digestion for LimeCreatrip Team
2 months ago
Lemons and limes are both nutrient-rich citrus fruits but offer different health advantages. Per 100g, lemons contain slightly more vitamin C, folate, potassium, and vitamin B6, supporting immunity, wound healing, skin collagen, and hydration (lemon water is recommended on an empty stomach). Lemons’ citric acid may help prevent kidney stones. Limes are smaller with stronger acidity and aroma; a single lime provides about 20–25 mg vitamin C and abundant flavonoids that can aid blood pressure and cardiovascular health. Lime juice works well as a low-sodium flavoring (good as a natural seasoning) and its higher citric acid may benefit kidney stone prevention and digestion. Practical tips: morning lemon water for immunity and hydration; lime juice to enhance meat and seafood dishes; regular lime intake for digestion and kidney health; choose lemons for skin and collagen support. Overall, both fruits support healthy eating and can be used according to your goals.
