The USDA has a good website on which you can research the nutrient values of any food. One 1 cup of raw lime juice is mostly water, however it contains some fiber, sugars, calcium, potassium, Vitamin C, folate, Vitamin E and Vitamin K. Since citrus fruits are some of the most highly sprayed crops, I would strongly recommend organic limes to minimize toxic exposures. Also, some people have food sensitivities toward citrus fruits --so for them, eating citrus is not a good idea. Because you combine lime juice and berries, you are getting a good combination of vitamins and antioxidants. Sounds yummy, as long as you don't add too much sugar! www.countrydoc.com
