They're tasty and they're healthy, but lemons are simply so much more than for making lemonade.
檸檬厚味又康健，其代價不單單是制作檸檬水罷了。
In a new Daily Mail Online original video, we look at seven different uses for the tart citrus fruit - and none of them have to do with eating them.
在《逐日郵報》新宣布的一個原創視頻中，咱們看到檸檬除食用，另有七種妙用。
The clip starts with hack number one: refreshing and sanitizing a cleaning board.
妙用一：給砧板幹凈消毒。
With garlic and onions being one of the most well-used ingredients in cooking here in the United States, the struggle of washing the pungent smell and flavor out of a cutting board is something many Americans can relate to.
大蒜、洋蔥都是美國人平常生存中經常使用的烹調佐料，但在加工以後，若何清除砧板上辛辣刺鼻的味道，困擾著很多美國人。
But not only that, given that you frequently slice up the likes of raw and cooked chicken and meat on the boards as well means it can be home to all sorts of harmful bacteria.
不但如斯，假如你老是用統一塊砧板切菜，豈論生食或熟食，雞肉照樣豬肉，那末砧板的確便是滋生各類有害細菌的溫床。
Luckily, life has brought us lemons. Slice one in half and press the fruit against the board, rub vigorously until the juices flow over the board, rinse and enjoy your lemon-fresh cutting board.
所幸，咱們另有檸檬。切半顆檸檬，在砧板上重重擠壓，使勁擦拭，讓全部砧板都塗滿檸檬汁，沖刷後，砧板將會面目一新，還帶著怡人的檸檬幽香。
For hack number two, our team shows how simply slicing a lemon and squeezing it into your trash can before throwing in the halves can eliminate unpleasant trash odors from your kitchen.
然後視頻向咱們展現了妙用二：若何清除廚房垃圾異味。在把放棄物扔進垃圾桶以前，切個檸檬，往放棄物上灑些檸檬汁就能夠了。
Keeping up with the kitchen theme, the next batch of lemons are used to unclog a drain.
接著讓咱們持續在廚房裏“發揮邪術”吧：妙用三，用檸檬疏浚排水管。
First, several lemons are squeezed for their juices into a cup, then the drain is rinsed with boiling water before being filled with half a box of baking soda.
起首，擠一杯檸檬汁待用，然後往排水管中倒半碗發酵粉，再用滾水沖刷。
Lemon juice is poured over the baking soda, causing it to bubble and fizz. After 15 minutes, the sink is draining smoothly.
末了，將檸檬汁倒入發酵粉中，直到嘶嘶冒泡。期待15分鐘，排水管便通順如初了。
Another part of your kitchen you can clean with lemons is your microwave. Throwing some lemons and their juices into a cup of water and microwaving for five minutes not only loosens up stains in the microwave so they are easily wiped away, but leaves a fresh smell behind.
別的，檸檬也能夠用來幹凈微波爐。妙用四：往水杯裏放進一些檸檬片和檸檬汁，微波加熱五分鐘，不但能輕松去除微波爐裏的汙垢，還能留下淡淡幽香。
If you are lucky enough to have a dishwasher in your house, you can also kick up your cleaning by putting a sliced lemon into your dishwasher to freshen things up.
妙用五：家裏剛巧有洗碗機的話，一樣可以在洗碗機裏放一片檸檬，會贊助廚具洗得加倍幹凈。
Taking the hacks outside of the kitchen, the final concoction created for the video is a homemade face scrub.
讓咱們把眼光轉向廚房以外，視頻裏先容的末了一個妙用就是克己面部磨砂膏。
The recipe contains three tablespoons of olive oil, the juice of a lemon, two tablespoons of honey and half a cup of sugar. Combine, apply and leave on for 15 minutes.
資料包含：三大勺橄欖油，一顆檸檬的汁水，兩大勺蜂蜜和半杯糖。混雜攪拌，敷在臉上靜置15分鐘。
After the time is up, rinse to brighten your skin, help prevent acne and even moisturize.
15分鐘事後，洗濯清潔，你就會發明膚色變得透亮迷人，檸檬磨砂膏同時另有防備痤瘡，保濕補水的功能。
