A method for making a nutritional and medicinal citrus-based cream that is
all-natural and highly stable includes the steps of grinding citrus peel
into a puree consistency and adding water to the ground citrus peel to
form a mixture. The mixture is then pH adjusted to a value in a range of
1.5-4.0. The pH-adjusted mixture is heated at a predetermined temperature
for a predetermined time period to achieve a gradual extraction of
unwanted compounds such as water-soluble pectins, and the heated mixture
is filtered. Water is then added to a filtrate from the filtering step to
form a mixture, which is filtered to achieve a cream having a desired
consistency. The invention is also intended to encompass the cream
composition made by the described method.
