I’ve heard of people drinking hot lemon water first thing in the morning, but I was never that interested in trying it. Chalk it up to being closed minded and in denial about being unhealthy. In my pursuit to be healthier and an overall better person, I figured I could try something for three weeks. Why not? Worst case is that I feel no different and I’ll save money on lemons, right?
In the words of Barney Stinson…
Truth is, after drinking hot lemon water first thing in the
morning for three straight weeks is that I did feel different. I noticed a decrease in water weight, an
increase in regularity (TMI?), and an increase in my energy level first thing
in the morning. I also think I’ve been
relatively healthy this winter and prevented getting sick because of the
increase in vitamin C.
Plus, it didn’t really add any additional time to my morning
routine. There really is no recipe. I just squeeze the juice from half a lemon
into a mug and add hot water. On
occasion, I might add a little bit of apple cider vinegar.
There are really many more health benefits than the ones I
noticed, including:
·
Improving digestion
·
Rejuvenates skin and healing
·
Boosts the immune system
·
Boosts energy
·
Helps to lose weight
·
Improves liver function
·
Has an alkalizing affect on the body by balances
pH levels
