Product Insights
The product is a fresh lemon, a member of the Fruits and vegetables group and specifically the Fruits subgroup. It is minimally processed (NOVA 1) and carries no Nutri‑Score, but its nutritional profile per 100 g includes about 29 kcal, 2.5 g sugars, 0.3 g fat and 1.1 g protein, providing a high dose of vitamin C. While its low calorie and sugar content make it a healthy flavor enhancer, its acidity can erode tooth enamel and it lacks detailed front‑of‑pack nutrition information for consumers.
