The crown of health: Why lemons top the ranking
You know that fruit is healthy, but do you also know the queen of fruits? The lemon has officially taken the throne! A study from William Paterson University analyzed the nutrient density of different types of fruit and declared lemon the winner. With an impressive nutrient density value of 18.72, it leaves other fruits far behind. But what makes lemons so special?
“Powerhouse Fruits”: More than just vitamin C
The study examined 17 essential nutrients, including vitamins, fiber and trace elements. A food is considered a “powerhouse fruit” if it provides at least ten percent of the daily requirement of these nutrients per 100 calories. The lemon scores not only with vitamin C, but also with a wealth of other vitamins and minerals that make it the ideal choice for your health.
