Who knew lemons were this useful!
Vitamin boost
You could just eat a whole lemon and be done with it if you’re very tough and don’t mind the highly acidic taste. Lemons give us a real vitamin boost because they’re packed with super-healthy phytonutrients. These phytonutrients go on the prowl within your body seeking potentially harmful free radicals. Drinking a glass of lukewarm water with lemon juice first thing in the morning will help jumpstart your digestion and improve your skin. To put it another way, there are only advantages to eating this sour fruit.
Empty stomach
If you want the greatest benefit from your lemon water, drink it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. When it comes to detoxing your body, this method will be the most successful. It also promotes weight loss. This is because if you drink the lemon water on an empty stomach, your liver creates more bile. As a result, you’ll feel less hungry and digest food more quickly. Because of the acidity in lemons, drinking lemon water is also helpful for your oral hygiene. These acids ensure that microorganisms as well as any leftover food from your meal are removed from your mouth.
