Scurvy can be healed by boiling cedar to make medicine. The Aboriginals taught Jaques Cartier how to heal scurvy. The aboriginals had limes that cured scurvy. After that sea captains knew how to cure scurvy and called limes: limeys. But now in this time we call them limes.
Voyages are normally shorter now, so there's less chance of developing scurvy - which we now understand is caused by a lack of vitamin C. In the past, maritime travellers rarely had access to fruit, fresh vegetables, or fresh meat. Without these, they had no way to get vitamin C and so would come down with scurvy.
