The Secret Grimoire of Garancia - The mysterious virtues of lemon

Sommaire

Known for its benefits, lemon is a citrus fruit rich in vitamins, minerals and trace elements. To help fight a cold, slim down, whiten your teeth or even erase your imperfections, lemon could be your best ally. Used from the 1st to the 3rd century for its therapeutic virtues by the Greeks, Romans and Arabs, it is now used by many of us for its many benefits (1). Discover the different ways to use lemon!

1/ Lemon against colds

Rich in vitamin C, lemon seems to be a good antiseptic and would help strengthen your immune defenses. Originally, lemon was recommended in cases of flu, colds and fever by ancient doctors (2) . So don't hesitate to drink its juice when you start to feel lacking in energy.

The Fairy Council:

Add a little honey and freshly squeezed lemon juice to your warm morning tea and you will enjoy its full benefits.

2/ Lemon as a slimming ally

Thanks, among other things, to flavonoids (3) , molecules contained in lemon, this citrus fruit is a little extra during a diet. It is a natural diuretic that contains pectin, a fiber that helps fight the urge to eat and promotes good digestion (3) . Lemon itself will not make you lose weight, but it will help purify your body (4) by getting rid of toxins from your body.

The Fairy Council:

If you want to enjoy the benefits and freshness of lemon, make yourself a detox water with lemon and cucumber!

Discover our recipe:

Ingredients :

  • 1.5 l of water
  • 1/2 untreated cucumber
  • 1 organic or untreated lemon
  • A few leaves of fresh mint

Instructions

  • Wash the ingredients
  • Pour 1.5 liters of water into a pitcher and add your lemon slices, cucumber and mint leaves.
  • Let it sit in a cool place for a few hours.
  • It’s ready, you can enjoy!

3/ Lemon for white teeth

Lemon is an acidic fruit, it is thanks to this acidity that it acts on tartar and can help reduce dental plaque (5) . However, using lemon to whiten your teeth should not be too frequent a habit, as it could weaken the enamel.

The Fairy Council:

To whiten your teeth using a lemon, simply brush your teeth with a few drops of its juice. You can use this trick a maximum of 2 times a week, so as not to risk damaging your enamel.

4/ Lemon for treatments that “remove”

Lemon has excellent exfoliating, astringent and toning properties for your skin. This is one of the reasons why we use its fresh juice in Pschitt Magique as well as in Formule Ensorcelante Anti-Peau de Croco . It helps exfoliate the skin in our 3-in-1 Body Cream, tightens pores in our grain-free micropeeling and allows our Philtre Légendaire and Centenaire Retrouvé to give you a radiant complexion.

The Fairy Council:

For a routine that "de-scrubs", clean your face with Pschitt Magique , then use a cotton pad of Philtre Légendaire et Centenaire Retrouvé by tapping on your skin. Then moisturize the rest of your body with Formule Ensorcelante Anti-Peau de Croco . Thanks to these treatments, take full advantage of the benefits of lemon!
