Lemon is one fruit I won't forget.... it's really work excellently....



Why You Should Drink WARM LEMON WATER

Aids with digestion:
Warm lemon water helps to eliminate waste in the body.
It helps with nausea, constipation, diarrhea and parasites.

It also relieves indigestion and allows food to digest properly.

Aids Weight Loss:
Lemons are high in pectin fiber, which helps suppress food cravings.
It also helps the body eliminate waste products by cleansing and detoxifying it.
By maintaining a more alkaline diet, you will lose weight faster.

Restores the body’s PH:
A food’s acid content is reflected in its pH value. Most foods contain naturally occurring acids to give them acidic values on the pH scale. A food’s pH value is often not the same in the body.
Lemons even though acidic, when inside our body are alkaline- forming when their compounds are released for absorption through the metabolic process.
With water lemons restore the body’s PH balance.

Purifies the liver:
Our body is exposed to toxins daily. The liver filters the toxins from the blood; after the toxins are filtered out of the bloodstream, they turn into free radicals. Free radicals are bad for the liver; the vitamin C in the warm lemon water cleanse the liver by removing toxin build up.

Hydrates the lymphatic system:
Warm lemon water stimulates the lymphatic system to remove the toxins accumulated in the lymph glands, colon, and bladder.
Warm lemon water hydrates the body and prevents adrenal fatigue. A dehydrated body can’t perform its regular work. Adrenal glands secrete important hormones, including aldosterone.
It also regulates water levels and the concentration of minerals, like sodium helping us stay hydrated.

Immune system booster:
Warm lemon water can boost your immune system as the juice of one lemon contains 18.6 milligrams of vitamin C, and a wedge provides 2.3 milligrams. Vitamin c helps ward off colds.

Natural diuretic:
Lemon itself is a natural diuretic and will increase the rate of urination. As a result, lemons help clean our urinary tract and free it of infections. It is also believed to aid in the dissolution of gallstones.

Recipe:
In 1 cup of warm water add the juice of 1/2 of an organic lemon.
Drink twice a day: before breakfast and before going to bed at night.

A blended lemon is also great for those who coughed till their sides hurt.. make it warm and drink three times a day till the cough disappear... I said BLENDED WHOLE...drink immediately because it will turn too bitter to drink if left for a few minutes...

These are the green ones we find locally in Malaysia.. Lemon should not be wasted.. once you know the wonder of lemons.. you will have them in your kitchen anytime of time...






If you love gardening.. plant one of this in your garden.. a small plant is enough for a small family.. in and out, eat or drink, wash or dish washing.. it works wonder..








Lemon is rich in Vitamin C and phytonutrients.. best of all, it keeps for long when left in cool dry places.. it can even keep for months, the skin might be dried and brown, but inside is still usable... This is one of the best fruit ever God created for all of us.. make use of it smartly..

Lemon has so much common usage, in the kitchen to help wash meats.. we can use rock salt and lemon to wash meat clean instead of scalding them.. We use lemon for drinks, for making dishes.. And for even washing our body mixed with honey..

Lime is one of the best common health fruit.. it tastes so sour but once we have them in our stomach, it is actually alkaline in nature...



I have been using lemon for long.. it's real effective and beneficial to us. Use your local lemon, it's good enough.. One reminder..if you know that it helps 'wash'our blood, you must know how to STOP taking it after a month and REST for another month before you start again...




Detoxifying foods...For all those who eat meats most of the time, it is most advisibe to make a lemon drink without sugar or salt early in the morning and drink it...on empty stomach...make it with 500 ml water.. it works perfectly for those with high uric acids..
