[Diabetes-talk] whole lemons

[Mike Freeman]

Further thought: hey! Lemons are *very* good if you're gthree sheets to the
wind and get the hiccups. Just suck on a lemon for a while and it slows them
down! (grin)

studies (by reputable universities, etc.) going on with lemons right now,
some involving cancer, but below is the final paragraph from snopes.com.  My
trigger to look there about this piece was that it claims this is a known
fact, but it's being hidden from the general public.  That statement alone
is a real trigger for knowing it's not scientific.

No reputable scientific or medical studies have reported that lemons have
been found to be a "proven remedy against cancers of all types," nor has any
of the (conveniently unnamed) "world's largest drug manufacturers" reported
discovering that lemons are "10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy" and
that their ingestion can "destroy malignant [cancer] cells." All of those
claims are hyperbole and exaggeration not supported by facts."
