Since the fruits are rich in vitamins A, B, and C, sailors were given one ounce of lemon juice daily to prevent scurvy, eye problems, and other vitamin deficiencies. The first proper lemon cultivation in Europe began in the mid-15th century in Genoa. Later, it was introduced to America by Christopher Columbus. Through the Spanish conquests, lemon seeds spread further. Lemon was mainly used as an ornament and medicine. Only much later did people begin to use it for cooking.
