    Sign of the limes

    Dec 11, 2022 2 minutes

    Question:

    In “Forbidden fruit” (Nutrition, October 29), I saw for the first time limes listed as risky for those of us on blood-pressure meds. But are they as dangerous as grapefruit? I have enjoyed a lovely Thai coriander and lime dressing, feijoa and lime cider and lime pies for years and not noticed any adverse effects.

    Answer:

    Some fruit juices.
