The Many Health Benefits Of Drinking Water with Lemon Juice



Balances pH - Lemons are an incredibly alkaline food, believe it or not. Yes, they are acidic on their own, but inside our bodies they're alkaline (the citric acid does not create acidity in the body once metabolized). As you wellness warriors know, an alkaline body is really the key to good health.

Helps control Hunger - Lemons are high in pectin fiber, which helps fight hunger cravings.

Aids digestion

Acts as a gentle, natural diuretic - Lemon water helps flush out unwanted materials by increasing the rate of urination in the body.

Clears skin - Lemon water helps purges toxins from the blood which helps keep skin clear; also help hydrate the skin.

Hydrates the lymph system

Boosts the immune system - Lemons are high in Vitamin C and potassium. Vitamin C is great for fighting colds and potassium stimulates brain and nerve function and helps control blood pressure.
