Surprising as it may sound, the precise origin of the lemon tree has never been established.
Christopher Columbus took lemon seeds with him as he set sail on his second expedition in 1493, and they were planted on the island of Hispaniola now known as Haiti & Dominican Republic. From there, the lemon quickly spread to West Indies.
It is also known that Franciscan missionaries introduced the fruit to California in the late 18th century, and by 1804 there were orchards from just 400 seedlings. California is now probably the largest producer of lemon essential oil in the world.
lemon is widely documented throughout history for its healing qualities, having been first used in Ayurvedic and Chinese traditional medicine and then later adopted in European folk medicine. Lemon juice and honey, or lemon juice with ginger has been universally taken as a remedy for colds since records began.
Over the years, lemon juice has been taken internally to treat arthritis and rheumatism, digestive problems, dysentery, hiccoughs, jaundice and palpitations. In Italy, the sweetened juice was used to help conditions like gingivitis, stomatitis, and inflammation of the tongue,
In the late 18th century, it was discovered that fresh lemon juice was a fantastic treatment for scurvy. To the untrained sailors’ eye, over-ripe limes resembled unripe lemons, and both fruits were used as the cure for the disease. This eventually led to early American mariners giving British sailors the nickname of ‘limejuicers’, or “Limeys”
Lemon has an impressive list of therapeutic and antiseptic properties, making a valuable contribution in helping to ease symptoms of arthritis and rheumatism, poor circulation, cellulite, high blood pressure, oedema and varicose veins.
