Lemon
Lemon (Citrus limon) is refreshing and has many uses in our home. Lemon is frequently added to food to enhance the flavor of desserts and main dishes. We frequently use lemon to freshen the air. I also add 1-5 drops in a glass of water every morning for internal cleansing. When we have trouble waking up, I diffuse some Lemon with Peppermint for an uplifting and energizing effect. Make stainless steel shine by adding two drops of lemon on a rag and rub in circles.

COMMON USES

• Diffuse and take internally to assist with seasonal respiratory discomfort.

• Add Lemon oil to a spray bottle of water to clean and disinfect tables, counter tops, and other surfaces. Lemon oil also makes a great furniture polish; simply add a few drops to olive oil to clean, protect, and shine wood finishes.

• Use a cloth soaked in Lemon oil to preserve and protect your leather furniture and other leather surfaces or garments.

• Lemon oil is a great remedy for the early stages of tarnish on silver and other metals.
