A lemon slice is usually a popular choice with water when dining at a restaurant -- but what people don't know is how beneficial lemons can be!
People spend boat loads of money on expensive detox drinks, weight loss pills and elixirs made to supposedly rejuvenate their complexions -- but what if there was one thing that could help replace the work of all three?? Well, the answer to that is: Lemon water. That's right. Lemon water has just about every great benefit that you'd ever want.
Detox and digestion.
Lemon water helps stimulate the liver into releasing toxins as well as aiding in digestion and relieving an upset stomach.
Increase in Vitamin C.
Since our bodies don't make vitamin C on their own, it's important to ingest an appropriate amount from foods and drinks. Lucky for us, lemons are full of vitamin C. So, we're able to have better immune systems and keep flu/colds away.
Rejuvenates skin.
Aside from helping us keep a strong immune system, the vitamin C we get from lemons also helps the body produce collagen -- keeping us wrinkle free!
Weight loss.
Sipping on lemon water throughout the day can actually aid in weight loss because lemons contain pectin -- a fiber that helps one feel full longer -- so you'll tend to eat less junk food and be mindful of what foods you should eat.
Hope these are reasons enough for you to change your daily habits and fix yourself a nice, refreshing glass of lemon water!
