Lemon water is the morning drink par excellence, especially if you drink it when you get up, on an empty stomach.
Tissues tend to dehydrate after a night's sleep; a glass of lukewarm water with lemon added is perfect for reviving the mind
*Seven benefits of lemon water:*
1- Lemon water boosts energy levels by supporting and stimulating bodily functions including digestion and cellular metabolism; it also has many other health benefits.
2- It provides a good dose of vitamin C. Vitamin C is essential for several functions, including wound healing, increased iron absorption, protection against immune deficiencies, healthy eyes, bones and teeth , and maintaining healthier, wrinkle-free skin.
3- It participates in detoxification. Lemon water can help cleanse the liver by activating the digestive enzymes found there. It may also help lower cholesterol levels in the blood and liver, as demonstrated by an in vivo study.
4- It is a source of other important nutrients. Lemon also contains calcium, iron, potassium, B vitamins and fiber, in smaller amounts.
5- It is a source of antioxidants (elements that fight free radicals). A lemon contains about 60% of the recommended dose of vitamin C. This antioxidant has the ability to counter the harmful effects of free radicals, which damage DNA. Free radicals are also associated with oxidative stress, a precursor to many chronic diseases. Antioxidants like vitamin C therefore play an important role in preventing damage caused by free radicals, which are implicated in the development of cancer, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and other chronic pathologies.
6- It can help maintain a good body mass index. Lemons contain compounds called polyphenols, which participate in the breakdown of lipids and have a beneficial effect on the transport of glucose in cases of obesity. Research further indicates that polyphenols activate particular receptors that mediate cellular differentiation, development, and metabolism (commonly known as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors). In a mouse study, lemon polyphenols counteracted weight gain as well as body fat accumulation while substantially improving glucose, insulin and leptin levels, suggesting that they may reduce insulin resistance.
7- It can help eliminate toxins. Adequate consumption of natural water helps to rid the body and the urinary tract of toxins. Adding a cup of hot water with lemon added daily can speed up this process.
