Apart from that, this fruit also has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory properties, and can help increase the body's endurance. In the traditional health sector, kalamansi oranges are often used to relieve coughs, sore throats, and help digestion and detoxify the body because of their high citric acid content. In the food sector, kalamansi orange is used as a natural flavoring ingredient in drinks, sauces and processed foods because it can add a fresh taste.
