Lemon Water
My friend cousin gave me this little tip that is well spoken of; drinking lemon water before breakfast. That might not sound too appealing but the benefits of this tip are wonderful.
Lemon water has a lot of benefits to your health and even your skin.
'It triggers hydro-chloric acid production which happens to be a great help in food digestion.'
Hydro-chloric acid helps in breaking down of foods to enable digestion and better absorption. The molecules of food that enter the stomach are quite big, if they are not broken down, digestion will hardly take place and most definitely, no absorption.
'it gives your metabolism to a great boost for the day'
as we grow older, our metabolism slows down and this will lead to gaining of weight. Lemon water is one of the ways to give your metabolism a boost to avoid any effects of a slow metabolism.
'it helps the Liver function much better'
The bitterness of the mixture helps the liver in its function and detoxification. If the liver is not functioning well, a lot of complications may arise; low energy, poor complexion, hormonal imbalance to mention a few. So the liver needs to be active and healthy, just so you know, the liver cannot be replaced long term.
Try this, warm water with a squeeze of lemon (amount depending on how much bitterness you can withstand) and drink up 20 minutes before you take your breakfast. Note that after a few days of using this tip, you might feel a little worse, CHILLEX, this is due detoxification that maybe your liver hasn't been able to do well. After that time of feeling worse, there will be great benefits.
Try it, give it time and enjoy its awesome benefits!!!
Remember 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 "19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."
God bless you
