An Amazing detox citrus fruit: Lemon - by @dcrypto

in #health7 years ago

You probably know many ways to detox your body. Some ways may be expensive, and some may be cheap. But as far as I am concerned, the best way to detox is to include lemon in it. Since it is easily available and relatively cheaper, you can get it right away after reading the post. Apart from detox, this amazing fruit has an ability to improve your skin health and helps in digestion. Being so rich in vitamin C, it gives you ultimate health benefits. Not only vitamin C but also magnesium, potassium, and copper are included in it. Here are the some of the benefits of lemon water.

Detoxification

Since the juice of it contains almost similar atomic structure as digestives juice in your body, it stimulates the liver to produce bile. Through this process, the eaten food will be moved throughout your body, which also helps to ease your stomach. It also protects you from various gastrointestinal infections.
This water allows your food being digest very slowly, allowing your body to absorb maximum nutrients out of it. Therefore, your insulin levels will not create any problem while getting more good stuff.
Not only you get n number of benefits by consuming it separately, but it also gives more added benefits if you mix them with green tea. I mix lemon juice to green tea to get maximum antioxidants out of it.

it is really good for you, but you have to be careful. I have been drinking lemon water for a while and damaged my teeth, best use a straw or even better brush teeth afterwards

Fresh-squeezed lemon juice daily is a proven detox method, and will help cure sicknesses such as colds and the flu!
