The Lemon Water Detox

After reading (more like flip through) the book Eat Right For Your Type by Dr Peter D Adamo, i have started to routinely start my day with a glass of warm water + juice from half a lemon. It is a natural remedy for detox and amazingly, it helps in weight control (well, it works for me) and general health.
Refreshing!

 Benefits of lemon water:

1. Cleanse your system

in her book "You Are What You Eat", Dr. Gillian Mckeith said, " A warm cup of water first thing in the morning (even better with a squeeze of lemon) goes right through the bowels and cleans mucus out from the day before." 

 Most of the food that we eat causes our body to become a bit acidic. A lot of diseases thrive in acidic condition. Lemon water although acidic in nature, when consumed, digested and reacted in the body, it became alkaline in nature. Hence balancing your body pH. Read THIS for more info on body pH

2. Aids digestion

Frinking lemon water regularly will aid in cleansing the bowels, helps eliminates constipation and diarrhea.

3. Stimulate and detox the liver

According to Kloss (Back to Eden,1988), lemon water dissolves uric acid and other poisons in the liver, liquefies bile and helps relieve malaria cases. Lemons are high in potassium and are extremely effective in treating biliousness, a symptom of liver disorder, which causes constipation, headaches, vomiting of bile and loss of appetite. People with liver complaints should drink the juice of one lemon in warm water one hour before breakfast each morning, according to Kloss.

4. Vitamin C and weight loss

Part of the reason for the powerful effects of this combination is lemon's high vitamin C content. According to an article published in the "Journal of the American College of Nutrition" in 2005, vitamin C is inversely related to your body mass. Researcher reported that having enough vitamin C intake, as opposed to being vitamin C-deficient, helps your body set off a series of chemical reactions that break down your body fat for use as energy.
Oh you know about how when you detox, getting rid of all those harmful substances and when you're healthier, you skin will show it first? Besides detoxing, you'll be getting your daily dose of vitamin C (good for complexion). 

 Detox + vitamin C = beautiful complexion. Au naturel. 

 I swear by lemon water. It really does wonder for your health and beauty.

Sebenarnya mau letak "Life Is Fragile" tapi macam ada kurang impak Whenever tragedies happened and people, especially people I know died, it will always get me thinking how short and fragile life is. How we should appreciate each and everyone we love around us. How we should live and savour every moment because we are not promised tomorrow.  Are you afraid of death? I used to but now I'm not. On some days, I probably look forward to it. Not that I want to die tomorrow or now per say, but if it is time for me to go, I'll accept it with an open heart. Death is just a transition to another world.  Eventually everyone is going to die. Why are you afraid of something that is inevitable? When MH17 was shot down and crashed, killing all its passengers and crew, many people were sa...
