8 Benefits of Lemon Water That You Didn’t Know

• Helps in digestion.  Warm lemon water gives relief to indigestion such as tummy burn, heartburn and bloating. It also releases toxins that are present in your digestive system.

 

•  Helps you lose weight.  It aids in fighting hunger cravings because of fibre.

 

• Cleanses your system. Helps cleans the liver as it helps flush out the toxins in your body by enhancing enzyme function.

 

• Keeps your skin clear and brighter. The antioxidants in lemon juice detoxifies your blood and that helps in keeping the skin clear, acne free and wrinkle free. Plain lemon juice can also be applied directly on any blemish, to reduce the inflammation.
