sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Meyer lemon juice concentrates mild sugars but remains low due to high citric acid buffering during extraction. Verify commercial products avoid added pear or apple juice during bottling stages. Combine zest with low-FODMAP olive oil for aromatic baking applications. Store refrigerated to preserve volatile oils and prevent rind drying over time.
