Every Tuesday I will share with you a Detox tip!  Stay tuned for tons of information on how to detox and why it is so important for us to aid our bodies in getting rid of toxins!
​

Benefits of Drinking Lemon in your Water!

What juice can help you loose weight, detox, is packed with vitamin C, aids in digestion and is filled with antioxidants?   It’s not as fancy as you might guess…. it just freshly squeezed LEMON juice.  This power house juice in inexpensive and has amazing health benefits.

Even if you are NOT a huge water drinker, you might become one when you see the advantages of drinking lemon in your H2O to support your body and overall health.


One cup of lemon juice has:
61 calories
5.9 grams of sugar
0 grams of fat
112 milligrams of vitamin C (187% daily value)
303 milligrams of Potassium (9% daily value)
31.7 milligrams of Folate (8% daily value)
1 gram of Fiber (4% daily value)
0.4 milligrams of Vitamin E (2% daily value)


Benefits to Drinking Lemon Juice in Water

Vitamin C
It is loaded with vitamin C at 187% DV per cup! Since our body does not make vitamin C on it’s own, we have to get it through the foods and drinks that we consume.  Vitamin C can help with our white blood cell production that is beneficial for our immune system.  


Detox
Helps your body detox and supports healthy digestion.
Lemon juice is similar to your digestive juices in your stomach and can help aid in digestion.It can also help your body break down toxins and can ease an upset stomach.


Healthy Skin
Since Lemons are filled with antioxidants, they can help fight damage from free radicals and keep our skin looking healthy and fresh.

If you don’t have fresh lemons on hand, you can still get many benefits from Lemon Essential Oil in your water.  Just 1-2 drops to 8oz of water.  This helps alkaline your body, raises PH levels, helps detox and promotes a healthy body, mind and spirit.  Make SURE that you only put essential oils in a GLASS or STAINLESS STEEL container.  Citrus breaks down petrochemicals and toxins and will also break down plastic.  You do not want to be drinking liquid plastic :)  

It takes over 40 lemons to make a 15ml bottle of essential oil.  Lemon oil comes from the rind of the fruit and does not contain any juice.  A couple drops of lemon oil is a wonderful addition to your daily water consumption.
​
I invite you to wake up every day to a mug of warm water filled with the juice from one lemon and a dash of cayenne pepper (to get your organs kick started).  Chug it down to kick off your day with an extra boost of Vitamins, Antioxidants and Immune System Support.   Your body will thank you… and your organs too.
Stay Well!
Cheers,
​
