Benefits of Lemon Water
SKIN benefits
One little known benefit of lemon juice is its anti-aging properties. The acid from the lemon juice contains concentrated levels of antioxidants, which help flush out toxins and free radicals from the body. The process of detoxing allows proper cell regenerations, which then manifest by way of glowing and younger looking skin. Vitamin C also promotes the production of collagen, which is a type of protein that is responsible for the skin elasticity. It is a well known fact that skin elasticity start to decline once you hit 40 (or sooner depending your genes and lifestyle). Drinking a glass of water with lemon daily is more preferable to getting a face lift because it’s all natural and cost next to nothing. If you haven’t been taking care of your skin well over the years you should start this simple morning routine and reap the benefits outright. In the past two weeks I’ve notice my complexion looks so even and my skin has such a nice glow, I haven’t worn any foundation.
HAIR benefits
Oily Scalp
If your have excessively oily hair and/or scalp, you can greatly benefit from drinking lemon water daily. It naturally lessen the secretions of the sebaceous gland (oil gland) and prevents oily and scalp from forming. Less oil means more manageable hair.
Stronger Hair Roots
Lemon water strengthens your hair follicles. Drinking it daily and applying it externally to your hair can help your hair grow faster with stronger roots.
Dry Scalp and Dandruff
Another benefit of drinking lemon water daily is that it helps relieve dry scalp and it eliminates dandruff. This also helps reduce itchiness from your scalp being so dry.
IMPROVED OVERALL HEALTH AND WELLBEING
Lemon juice simply brings countless health benefits, such as lowered cholesterol levels, normalized blood pressure, reduced blood sugar level, and improved blood flow. In addition it also helps avoid depression and anxiety so your mental health can benefit from the daily lemon water routine as well.
It’s amazing how one glass of water with lemon can change your life, if you only keep up with the daily habit. Starting today would certainly be a great idea. Thank you for reading about my new addiction and you can thank me later!
