Why Start Your Day With Warm Lemon Water

I am sure you have heard it mentioned to drink lemon water. Actually, start your day with it. By why the heck would you do that? Besides the fact that it tastes delicious, it has a couple of benefits. Let’s explore those now.

Super Simple But Awesome Warm Lemon Water Benefits

What do I mean by warm water? Like a cup of tea that you can easily drink, without the tea. NOT hot, because that destroys the vitamin C. And that would be NO good.

For starters the WARM water helps the muscles in your colon start to contract. This is why it is so great to drink this first thing in the morning, before eating or drinking anything else. It encourages all the waste and fat to continue through the digestive system until they end up in your toilet.

The making of quality bile is also encouraged by vitamin C. Vitamin C is also great for helping the liver detox.

Lemon water is also very alkalizing thanks to the calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and manganese that is found in lemon juice.

How To Make Your Warm Lemon Water

  1. Get your favorite mug.
  2. Fill the mug with 8oz of warm water
  3. Squeeze in lemon juice from half a fresh (organic) lemon
  4. Enjoy
  5. wait about 30 minutes before eating or drinking anything else

I like to roll the lemon first before cutting it open. And then I either squeeze with my hand or lemon juicer. Yum!

 

If for some reason you just cannot drink lemon water, try some milk thistle tea or another detox tea instead to start your morning.

Cheers to health and wellness.
