After emergency csection and surviving sepsis…adding lemon to my water in the morning to help aide me in my weightloss journey.

By adding lemon to your water it can encourage you to drink more as the lemon gives it a flavour and alot of people find it easier to drink this way.

Lemon water when using a whole lemon contains 18.6milligrams of vitamin C. It is recommended that we intake between 65 to 90 milligrams per day making lemon water a good source of daily vitamin C. Vitamin C may help prevent or limit the duration of the common cold in some people due to its antioxidant properties.

Polyphenol antioxidants found in lemons can help reduce weight gain.
The antioxidants also stop negative effects on blood glucose levels and improved insulin resistance, helping reduce the chance of developing type 2 diabetes when teamed with a good varied diet.

The high vitamin C in lemon water can help with reducing the effects of wrinkles also the hydration of the water helps hydrate the skin and prevent further wrinkles from happening.

Citric acid found in lemons may help prevent kidney stones by making your urine less acidic and helping break up small stones.

 Lemon water can help improve the immunity of the uterus from external bacteria due to the vitamin C it contains.

Try not to fall into the detox trend or fad diets they don’t work and often cause bad reactions such as deficiencies. Just add some lemon to your water and get natural detoxing effects that won’t damage your body.
