7 Reasons Why You Should Place A Slice Of Lemon Every Night Next To Our Bed
If you thought that lemon can only be used to add to food or simply to make rich fresh water, you are wrong. In this article, we will tell you everything you need to know about putting lemon next to your bed. You’ll be surprised!
Reasons to put a slice of lemon next to your bed
1. Improves concentration
The scent of lemon can improve our mental performance, as well as help, increase our concentration and improve our memory.
What should you focus on when you go to bed? Well, it’s actually quite useful, especially if you suffer from insomnia and your brain goes through the night trying to solve the problems of the next day.

2. Stress relief
According to the research, the smell of citrus helps our brain relax. The consequences of stress and anxiety that accumulate throughout the day usually appear when we lie down to rest and try to evade the problems we had during the day.
Fortunately, for those nights when stress does not allow us to stick an eye, a couple of slices of lemon may be the solution. So says an investigation that says the smell of citrus helps relax our brain waves and emotions, leading to the arrival of sleep.
3. Reduce blood pressure
Believe it or not, the scent of lemon reduces the pressure on our arteries. Taking into account that hypertension is one of the most widespread diseases in our society (according to the Spanish journal of cardiology, 42.6% of the Spanish adult population of ≥18 years is hypertensive), it is strange that the lemon is not an fundamental fruit in the home of any family.
4. Positivity and energy
Sleeping next to a slice of lemon will start the day better because the smell of these fruits increases the production of serotonin, improving the mood related to hormones. With this simple trick, getting out of bed and start the day with strength will not pose any difficulty.
5. Improve breathing

We just have to let the soft smell of this antioxidant and anti-bacterial fruit pass through our noses to sleep like real babies.

Tired of the mosquitoes that banquet with you every night? Or maybe that fly buzzing for hours and hours that hides just when you turn on the light that twitches your nerves. Our pleasant yellow fruit makes all the insects that dare to approach flee. If in addition to this you want to extend its effect, add nails (of smell) and clávalos in the lemon.
