Citrus plants are traced to Southeast Asia and were claimed to be brought to the New World by Christopher Columbus. Yet, citrus fruits are not known because of that history. Instead, they are regarded as multifunctional — used in acne removal, make-up, fingernail strengthening, and hair treatment. Medically, citrus fruits help lower cholesterol levels in the body, and serving as antioxidants, they are known to slow the aging process. These health benefits of citrus are some of the major reasons they are in high demand. But there are worrying issues about freshness and organics. HaleGroves claims to solve these issues by offering fresh citrus to consumers. This is only a claim, however, that should be proven by reading reviews and opinions of previous buyers of Hale Groves to learn more about the process.
