The power of plants

Originally from Asia, then established around the Mediterranean basin during Antiquity, the lemon was used in traditional medicine for its antipyretic, anti-infection and digestive benefits. Its precious fruit was eaten by sailors to protect against scurvy during long voyages and the tree spread across the world thanks to these sea expeditions.
