📋 Health Benefits
-
📌 Grapefruit
Grapefruit is a good source of vitamin C, an antioxidant that helps boost immunity, promotes collagen production, and aids in iron absorption. The antioxidants in grapefruit, especially lycopene, may help reduce the risk of heart disease by protecting against oxidative damage to blood vessels. -
📌 Pineapple
Pineapple improves the appetite and digestion, and they are good to eat after meals. Yellow fruits and vegetables are rich in carotenoid, which prevents cancer, improves immunity, and protects our bodies including skin. The high amount of vitamin C in pineapple removes active oxygen for anti-oxidant effects and helps slow down aging. -
📌 Lemon
Lemons contain potassium, a mineral essential for heart health, blood pressure regulation, and muscle function. The high citric acid content in lemons can help improve digestion and iron absorption. Lemons can be a refreshing and low-calorie addition to water or other beverages, helping to promote hydration and potentially aiding in weight management. -
