Some studies suggest that D-limonene may help treat gallstones.
In a study of 200 patients with gallstones, 48% of participants who received D-limonene injections saw complete dissolution of their stones. This suggests that D-limonene could be a potential alternative to surgery. However, further research is needed to confirm whether D-limonene from lemon peel can effectively dissolve gallstones.

If you drink lemon peel water and do not urinate within two hours or experience headaches, stop consumption immediately. Proper use should promote frequent urination within two hours.
Consult a doctor before using lemon peel water, especially if you have a history of chronic illnesses or other health concerns.
