Jolomsguy: Wow! Nice write up, so educating.

Just wondering if it also has any negative implication on our system, my thought is, all positivity also has its negativity aspect also.

Please throw more lights.

Nice one though.

Gbam.

Despite all the goodness that limes/lemons provide as mentioned above, remember always to take only in moderation. More is not always better.

Some people are allergic to citrus peels, so when you take lime/lemon juice extracted together with the peel, check yourself to see if there is any allergic reaction afterwards. It happened to me once, I went for lunch with some family friends, and I didn't like the gravy they prepared because the lemon was squashed with the peels, and I didn't want to reject the food since i willingly followed them.
When I got home, my toilet bowl knew what happened. I am not allergic to it at all, but I found out it's a bad idea when it's squashed with the peels coz i end up writhing in pain.

Know what you're allergic to, irregardless of it's nutritous value, take it in the right quantity and at the right time.

thanks for this info. What i can rightly agree on here is being allergic to this particular fruit cus i took it in moderation ie 1 lemon squeeze mixed with a glass of water taken every morning. After the experience i just conclude this is not the right fruit for me.

You're welcome. Probably your body system sees it as a foreign agent and that's why. I don't know the reason for that.

Just a precaution now

Sunburn Due To Lime
Allergies to lime oil have been commonly reported, especially in light skinned people. People who are sensitive to lime oil should not apply it directly to their skin as it causes skin burn when the skin is exposed to sunlight. This effect is called photosensitization which basically happens because of the chemical oxypeucedanin, present in lime oil. Some of these naija babes with skin burns, plus coke and fanta skin caused it. Lime is also used as a skin lightener or bleaching ingredient, but most people without testing it on a fraction of their skin, just go ahead and apply it and then it kills their nerve cells beneath their skin, thereby causing a reaction which leave them with a rough, unpleasant skin. And for most people, you won't believe it that they used lime oil to nourish their skin. It makes the skin glow in a healthy manner. Those set of people are not allergic to it.

Then the Risk Associated During Pregnancy is not certain yet.
Lime is not considered unsafe during pregnancy but no confirmed result has been yet published on it’s over consumption and safety. So, to remain protected from the dangers of lime, it should be consumed in food amount during pregnancy as well as nursing period.
