Lemon Powder

Lemon powder is often crafted into a supplement that’s made from a whole lemon, and while most folks use only the juice – and very infrequently, given its acidic overtones – there have been, in more recent times, some individuals finding other low-cost, convenient ways to enjoy the benefits of whole lemons on a daily basis. Because of its citric acid content and low pH of 2 to 3, lemon can be used in many diverse applications; it has been used for its antiseptic characteristics, for digestion and for helping clear common ailments such as clogged sinuses.

Lemon powder also exudes an attractive scent, with many manufacturers of freeze-dried whole lemon concentrate crafting a unique product that captures all the juice and recombines it with the ground-up seeds, pulp and skin – all of which are dried in a vacuum chamber and then pulverized into a fine powder. According to some nutritional experts, this kind of product is the only practical way to consume the entire lemon.

Additionally, some lemon powders make an excellent source for natural lemonade or lemon-flavored water without the sugars, and can be added to cakes and cookies as well, as to make sauces and icings that are full of nutritional benefits.
