.....As discussed in greater detail below, studies have indicated that citrus limonoids do have potential as anti-cancer agents. However, I could find no medical studies that validate the claim that lemon is "10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy". Nor do any credible scientific reports indicate that lemon is a "proven remedy against cancers of all types".

Moreover, the message did not originate from the Health Sciences Institute of Baltimore (also identified on its website as the "Institute of Health Sciences") as claimed. A spokesperson for the Health Sciences Institute has denied any involvement, noting in a recent email:
 

The email and information in question did not come from the Health Sciences Institute. Whoever started this scam email did use some of our published material – which had nothing to do with lemons in any way – and inserted the information about lemons. It is erroneous and has caused us a great deal of trouble. However, most troubling is that it is giving false or un-tested medical advice to people suffering with cancer. Perhaps citrus fruits have some anti-cancer properties or perhaps they don’t (I’m not qualified to speak on that), but the one thing I know for certain is the provided “source” of this information – the Health Sciences Institute – did NOT publish this information. We had nothing to do with this email or the information it contains.

Thus, the message contains unproven, unsupported and significantly exaggerated claims about lemon as a cancer remedy and should not be considered a valid scientific report on the subject.
