Health and Beauty Tips: Drinking hot water with lemon!!

Why I'm drinking hot water with lemon every morning


 Lemon has so many benefits to our overall health. It can help detoxify our bodies and push out impurities. Realistically drinking water with lemon throughout the day is very beneficial since it will aid the liver in detoxifying all day which will also help shed a few of those unwanted pounds. But we are all human and we are cray cray busy so that's not always the first thing on our mind. So instead drinking hot water with fresh squeezed lemon first thing every morning is efficient. Here is a list among some of the benefits... 



1. It will give your metabolism a kick start to begin your day. Citrus fruits are known to give us energy. It will hydrate and oxygenate our body to help us through the day. 

2. It will reduce our breakouts. It will help flush out impurties in the body, reducing toxins which can be a culprit of those peskys pimples we loathe.

3. It can aid in digestion. It will flush you out which can help those who suffer from stomach aches (ME ME ME) and other issues from eating highly processed foods. 

4. Lemon= Vitamin C. Vitamin C is essential in overall health. Any place we can get extra vitamins with such a small step is awesome in our crazy lives. 

5. It can help your body absorb nutrients after. The reason to drink this first thing in the morning is to flush your body out before you put anything in it. Once you do this, the nutrients you are putting into your body following it will have a clearer path to be absorbed properly. If your body is not absorbing nutrients correctly it can lead to more hunger when you are not.

Bottom line just drink hot water with lemon first thing in the normal and all will be right in the world!! AMEN!
