(Citrus glauca)
Traditionally used by Aboriginals for its citrus flavour, the Desert Lime has extraordinary health benefits.
This fruit, while very similar to a regular lime, has a thin skin layer and can be eaten whole. It is a rich source of vitamin C and calcium for boosting immunity and bone strength. Containing phenolic acids, flavanone glycosides and lignan it assists in protecting against free radicals and reducing inflammation.
