Many mothers always like to wear the grapefruit skin as a hat for their children to play with, and after playing, they throw it into the trash can directly. In fact, grapefruit peel has many uses. Today, the editor will share the wonderful uses of grapefruit peel!

Wonderful uses of life:
1. Repel mosquitoes and sliver the thick white skin of the grapefruit, cut it into strips and dry it in the sun. After completely removing the moisture, ignite it and burn it, it is a natural mosquito coil. Or use a mesh bag with onions or garlic onions and garlic in the closet to repel mosquitoes.
2. Health tea drink
If you do not separate the white and green grapefruit peels, peel them off directly, dry them into dry shapes and cut them into strips or slices, you can cook them into strong tea and drink them, which has the effect of appetizing and breathable.
3. Remove the odor
Put three portions of grapefruit peel into the microwave and heat it for about 2 minutes to remove the oily and vegetable flavor in the microwave. You can also place the grapefruit peel directly into the corners of each layer of the refrigerator to remove the odor of the refrigerator.
4. Essential oil incense
Cut the green skin into small pieces and place it in water for heating. The natural grapefruit essential oil will be released from the green skin, allowing the air to exude a faint grapefruit fragrance, which has the effect of calming the nerves.
5. Take a bath and beautify
Boil the green skin in water, pour it into the bathtub, or throw the green pomelo peel into the bathtub directly, and turn on hot water to force out the essential oil first. Use grapefruit peel to take a hot bath, so that the pores of the human body can be opened, and the essential oil of grapefruit can beautify, eliminate fatigue for the whole day, and relieve nerves. It is very easy to fall asleep after taking a bath. (Reminder: After bathing, you still have to rinse it with clean water to avoid the skin of the grapefruit essential oil and will be tanned after sunlight!)

Medicinal value:
1. Boil the grapefruit skin in water to treat pneumonia in children
After eating the grapefruit, leave the skin to dry, put it in a few pieces in the pot and add water to boil it, cut it into pieces, and do not have too much water (like decocting Chinese medicine). After several times, pour the boiled soup into a bowl for the child to drink. It will be cured if you drink it a few times.
2. Boil pomelo peel in water to treat frostbite
Boil water with dried pomelo peel. When it is very thick, take this water to hot compress the frostbite area, but avoid where the skin is broken. Pay attention to the temperature of the hot compress. At the beginning, the temperature of the towel should not be too hot. You can shake the hot air before applying it. After the frostbite is adapted, the temperature should be gradually increased. At the highest point, take out a towel from the pot and directly compress it.
This method requires patience and long-term persistence (even if it is good, it is best to stick to it until this winter is over), which can promote the recovery of frostbite and effectively eliminate recurrences or reductions in the coming year. If the frostbite is not broken, add a few dried chili peppers. It is best to use the pot and towel separately. The boiled water does not need to be replaced, but it must be boiled every time. Adding new water must extend the boiling water time.
Purpose
1. Frying. First clean the grapefruit, peel off the green skin outside, and remove the floe. Leave the soft white sponge part in the middle, and everything is thinly sliced. Then put the cut grapefruit peel into a pot, soak it in clean water for two to three days, and change the water once a day to remove the bitter taste. If you are in a hurry to eat, put the cut grapefruit peel in boiling water before putting it in the pot. Even the freshly-opened grapefruit can also remove the bitterness. Stir in shredded ginger, garlic, dried chili, and stir-fry in oil (a little more oil), after the aroma is revealed, add dark soy sauce and pour in clean water. After the water boils, pour in the pomelo peel that squeezes the water, add salt, boil it dry, fry and fry it.
2. Can prevent insects. Tear the white ribs on the inner surface, place them in a ventilated place and dry them, and then dry the moisture. Store it in a bag with small holes and can be placed in the corner of the wardrobe or in the rice bucket to prevent mosquitoes.
3. You can put it in the room to remove the foul smell. Putting the grapefruit peel in the refrigerator can remove the odor of the refrigerator!
At this time, it is the season when grapefruits are on the market in large quantities. Most people often throw away the grapefruit peel after eating the flesh of grapefruit. In fact, this is a pity. Because pomelo peel is edible, it is not only nutritious, but also has dietary therapeutic effects such as warming the stomach, relieving phlegm, and moistening the throat.
Among the many autumn fruits, grapefruit is the largest, usually above 1,000 grams. It matures around August 15th of the lunar calendar every year, and has a thick skin that is resistant to storage, so it is known as "canned natural fruits".
