So you thought lemons were just for lemonade, lemon cake, grilled trout or honey-lemon-ginger tea? Think again.

When life hands you lemons…….. there is an incredible list of things you can do with them!

(Cue subtle “zen lesson” in having the positive mental attitude and the inside knowledge to make the best of any situation…)

Now I consider myself a true fanatic of the glorious lemon, but many of these weird uses of lemon I had NEVER heard of before. Some of these are strange and unexpected, but you have to admit, they are pure genius. Lemon juice as metal polish, as emergency deodorant (Ok that’s really weird! Who discovered this??) and as fingernail strengthener…. and every point in between, it’s all in there. One thing that I enjoy is that a fair few of the ideas call for the use of the lemon peels – which are typically discarded as being of no value!

Here then, without further ado, is the list of 20 “Weird But Amazing” Uses For Lemon Juice, from our friends over at the stylish and happening Eco Salon:

One last tip – one of the best “not weird” uses of lemon is to add a squeeze (directly from the fruit) to a glass of water before drinking it. It’s thought by many that this “lemon water” is a magnificent “detox drink” and it’s highly regarded as a drink that helps flush and cleanse the system – especially when taken first thing upon waking. I keep a lemon handy for this purpose and won’t be without my lemon water. I think I can actually feel its beneficial effect.

  Aside from squeezing in iced tea at restaurants, I even use the already squeezed lemon rinds from my iced tea to freshen my hands at the table at restaurants (especially if eating things with my hands like wings etc.), because I don’t like the lingering perfume smell of the soaps in their restrooms and I certainly don’t like the taste of those soaps either. I just use a couple of napkins to wipe them off or rinse it in the restroom. Makes your hands smell lemon fresh! 😉
