This is the conclusion of a new<br \/>\nresearch study involving 200 patients who added a controlled volume of lemon juice to<br \/>\ntheir normal diet over a test period of 2 years.<\/p>\n<p>The study was carried out by the internationally renowned Mario Negri research<br \/>\ninstitute in Ranica (Bergamo) together with hospitals in Bergamo and will be presented<br \/>\non 3 October 2013 at 9.30am at the institute in the Villa Camozzi, Via Camozzi, 3,<br \/>\nRanica (Bergamo), Italy.<\/p>\n<p>The presentation under the title \u201cThe hidden powers of the lemon\u201d is organised in<br \/>\ncooperation with the Consorzio di Tutela del Limone di Siracusa IGP. As part of the<br \/>\npresentation, the consortium will be explaining the special characteristics of the lemon<br \/>\nand its contribution to health.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of the research project was not only to establish what impact the consumption<br \/>\nof lemon juice has on the formation of kidney stones but also to establish its influence<br \/>\non known complications such as urinary infections and colics, and whether it leads to a<br \/>\nreduced need for hospital treatment and surgery.<\/p>\n<p>Kidney stones are a common condition affecting between 10 and 12 per cent of the<br \/>\npopulation. Without medical treatment the rate of recurrence is very high. In the first<br \/>\nyear after treatment, 15 to 20 per cent of patients suffer a recurrence of the condition.<br \/>\nIn the first five years after original treatment, this rate rises to 50 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>Lemons are a natural source of citrate and have the highest concentration of this<br \/>\nsubstance among all types of citrus fruit, as much as five times higher than in an<br \/>\norange. Standard medications for the treatment of kidney stones contain potassium<br \/>\ncitrate though this can only be prescribed in limited quantities because of side effects.<br \/>\nA half cup of pure lemon juice contains the same volume of citrate and provides an<br \/>\neffective alternative.<\/p>\n<p>The research project, supported by the Consorzio di Tutela del Limone di Siracusa<br \/>\nIGP, aims to provide specific evidence of the positive benefits of using lemon juice in<br \/>\nthe treatment of kidney stones.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1560336358677{margin-top: 40px !important;}&#8221;] The power of the lemon \u2013 new study on the health benefits of the consumption of lemon juice [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The consumption of lemon juice as a supplement to a normal diet can reduce the risk of a recurrence of kidney stones by up to 50 per cent.
