August 25, 2006, Newsletter Issue #29: Citrus Zest In Healthy Recipes


1

Tip of the Week

Many healthy recipes call for lemon, lime, or orange zest. Citrus zest is good for your health due to its high content of bioflavanoids. Bioflavonoids are potent plant antioxidants promoting functions of our heart and blood vessels, protecting our tissues from substances causing tumors and from premature aging, supporting the immune system and joint health, and fighting inflammation and allergies. Studies have shown their role in protecting vitamin C from being destroyed in the intestines and in protecting us from some viruses and bacteria, especially from ear and throat infections.

Tips:

Wash the fruit before zesting The white inner pith is bitter so avoid it during zesting The best zest make citruses that are firm, colorful, and slightly bumpy, with thick skin
