THEY SAID DRINKING LEMON WATER IN THE MORNING IS GOOD FOR YOU.HERE IS WHAT THEY DIDN’T TELL YOU

We all hear that the consumption of lemon water in the morning is healthy, but few of us know the exact benefits of this daily regimen. Drinking warm lemon water on an empty stomach has tons of health benefits.

Lemon juice is rich in flavonoids, potassium, antioxidants, proteins, vitamins both B and C. It possesses potent antiviral immune building capabilities.

The consumption of lemon water helps to build up your immune system, giving it a much-needed boost by fighting off infections with its high levels of bioflavonoids, which include Citric acid, magnesium, calcium, and pectin.

Moreover, done on an empty stomach, it cleanses the body and flushes out your system, which promotes weight loss and maintains the body’s pH balance. In addition, it also helps with digestive issues.

After all this, do you need any other reason to persuade you to start drinking lemon water every day?
