Benefits of Calamansi

Calamansi--Lime (dalandan/ lemonsito/agridolce) I love it. A small rounded fruit, about 2 to 3 cm. in diameter. Calamansi juice, a popular drink for healthy minded people. Besides being a refreshing, nourishing and nutritious citrus drink, calamansi will provide you high content of vitamin C. Best medication for common colds and flu, a replacement for aspirin or pain-relieving tablets. Calamansi is highly rich in ‘’kinine’’ a well-known factor that can lower down fever. Also helps blood circulation and normalize digestion. Drinking between 3 to 6 glass of calamansi juice per day keeps the doctor away. A great repellant for insect bites, it takes the itch away. Depending on how you want it, squeeze 10 pieces of calamansi in a glass and mix with desired water. Calamansi used as a flavoring for various food preparations like steak and fish. Squeeze over your noodles (pansit) grilled fish (sinugba) and pickled fish (kinilaw) Mixing calamansi with soy sauce is a great dipping sauce. Also used as a secret ingredient for beverages, purees and concentrates. Calamansi is widely known in Philippines as a front yard or backyard tree.
