Introduction

      Pure crystalized Citric acid made from lemon juice is triturated with sugar of milk for our lower potencies.

In the absence of a regular proving, our symptoms are made up from a few cases of poisoning from lemon juice and some clinical reports of its use.

Symptoms

      The organic acids generally produce conditions of malnutrition and anaemia (15) and there is reported a case of scurvy brought on by the excessive use of lemon juice as a preventive against yellow fever.

You are familiar with the use of the lemon and pineapple in diphtheria, with seemingly beneficial results. There are several reports of the local application of one dram of citric acid to eight ounces of water to relieve the pains of cancer.

It is of value, as a remedy, to check excessive menstruation (135).
