Benefits

Citric acid is a natural organic compound commonly found in citrus fruits, such as lemons, oranges, and limes. It plays an essential role in the body's metabolism, particularly within the Krebs cycle, where it aids in converting carbohydrates, proteins, and fats into energy. Additionally, Citric acid enhances the absorption of key nutrients, especially minerals, and provides antioxidant properties that protect cells from oxidative damage. It supports kidney health by reducing the risk of kidney stones through increased citrate levels in urine, aids digestion by balancing acidity, and serves as a natural preservative, enhancing stability and shelf life of various foods and supplements. Furthermore, citric acid is commonly used in skincare products due to its ability to exfoliate and brighten the skin, promoting healthy skin renewal.
