You see in today’s world our bodies gather toxins from everywhere and every source. Talk of the air we breathe, the water we drink, the cosmetics and creams we use, the pesticides, the antibiotics, and other harmful compounds found even in the foods we eat everyday.
All of these pump immense volumes of dangerous toxins into our systems and these in effect overtime dampens the activity of major organs in our body as acidity increases.
One way to help in getting rid of these toxins is learning to make it a daily ritual to drink a glass of water mixed with lemon juice.
Here’s how to do it:
Go to the market, shop for plenty of lemon and store in your refrigerator.
Each morning before you leave home, take a ball of lemon, cut it into 2 parts.
Get a glass of purified water and squeeze each half of the lemon into this glass of water.
Gently but slowly drink the whole glass of freshly pressed lemon juice.
Drink this at least 10 – 30 minutes before your breakfast in the morning.
What Are The Benefits Of Drinking Lemon Water Each Day?
Why-Lemon – Actually there are a lot of benefits to drinking Lemon water everyday.
According to a popular health magazine, it says:
“The health promoting benefits of lemons are powerful. For centuries, it has been known that lemons contain powerful antibacterial, antiviral and immune boosting components. We know that lemons are a great digestive aid and liver cleanser. Lemons contain citric acid, magnesium, bioflavonoids, vitamin C, pectin, calcium and limonene, which supercharge our immunity so that the body can fight infection.
Lemons are considered one of the most alkalizing foods you can eat. This may seem untrue as they are acidic on their own. However, in the body, lemons are alkaline; the citric acid does not create acidity once it has been metabolized. The minerals in lemons are actually what helps to alkalize the blood. Most people are too acidic (from eating too much sugar and grains), and drinking warm lemon water helps reduce overall acidity, drawing uric acid from the joints. This reduces the pain and inflammation which many people feel. And the American Cancer Society recommends warm lemon water to encourage regular bowel movements.”
So you can see that lemon water has immense health advantages. Here are additional benefits of drinking lemon water in the morning.
