Baked Lemon Cod
A concentrated load of vitamin B12 and D is provided by cod. Both are involved in bone development, cell division and blood formation. Lemons taste sour, but have an alkalizing effect in the body and thus bring the acid-base balance into balance.
If there is basil left over from the cod in the oven with lemon, it can be made into a delicious basil pesto.
