Many restaurants serve it as a routine and some people start their day with lemon water instead of coffee or tea. Obviously lemons are delicious, but does it make you healthier if you add them to water?
More research has been done on the benefits of water and lemon separately, however here are some ways the body can benefit from lemon water:
1. Hidratim
Water is the best drink for hydration, but some people do not like its taste on its own. Adding lemon enhances the taste of the water, which can help you drink more.
2. Vitamin C
Citrus fruits like lemons have vitamin C, a key antioxidant that helps protect cells from free radical damage. Lemons do not top the list of citrus fruits with a lot of vitamin C, but the juice of one lemon provides 18.6 milligrams of vitamin C. The recommended daily amount for adults is 65 to 90 milligrams.
3. Pesha
Research has shown that the polyphenol antioxidants found in lemons significantly reduce weight gain. However it is unclear whether the weight loss comes from the fact that people drink more water and feel full or from lemon juice.
4. The skin
Vitamin C in lemons can help reduce skin wrinkles, reduce dry skin from aging and sun damage. How water improves the skin is debatable, but one thing is for sure. If the skin loses hydration, it becomes dry and prone to wrinkles. A 2016 laboratory study showed that a citrus-based drink helped prevent the development of wrinkles in mice.
5. Third
Some people drink lemon water as a daily laxative in the morning to help prevent constipation. Drinking warm or hot water with lemon when you wake up can help your digestive system.

Efektet anësore të ujit me limon
