A Beneficial Fruit
"Limes do not form a single botanical group, as most commercial varieties are hybrids derived from citron (C. medica), mandarin (C. reticulata), pomelo (C. maxima), and sometimes micrantha."
Limes are packed with Vitamin C and antioxidants, offering benefits like boosting immunity, improving skin, aiding digestion, preventing kidney stones (due to citric acid), and potentially lowering risk for heart disease, certain cancers, and managing blood sugar by improving insulin sensitivity, plus their antimicrobial properties fight bacteria like H. pylori and Salmonella.
