The Best Morning Drink For Health and Weight Loss
Health | February 02, 2015
What is your favorite beverage in the morning? Is it coffee or tea? I love both, but I decided to start my days with a healthy drink from now on. That doesn’t mean that I am giving up on coffee and tea, however it is very important what goes into your system first thing in the morning. That’s why Im starting my days with lemon water. It’s nothing complicated and the benefits are huge. You will need a freshly squeezed juice from 1/2 of a lemon, and 8oz of warm or room temperature water. Squeeze the lemon into the water and if you want you can also add fresh mint. That’s what I do, because I have a fresh mint herb in my kitchen and I am always happy whenever I get the chance to use it.
Here are the benefits of drinking lemon water in the morning on an empty stomach:
1. Lemon water will help you cleanse your body of toxins, which is going to show on your skin. Lemons are full of skin rejuvenating and anti-aging properties.
2. Lemon water will improve your digestion. The lemon juice will activate the production of bile in your digestive system and when combined with warm water, it will flush out un-welcomed stuff out of your body and help with bloating and heartburn.
3. Lemon water eliminates headaches.
4. Lemon water fights infections. The high amount of vitamin C in lemons is a very powerful way to for fighting illnesses.
5. Lemon water helps with weight loss. Lemons are full of pectin fiber, which will regulate your hunger levels.
Enjoy your healthy morning drink!

I really enjoy a glass of room-temperature water with fresh lemon juice in it. It’s super simple for me as I just leave my brita filter out on the counter overnight. I’m wondering though, would the benefits be enhanced by WARM water instead of room temperature? Or is room temperature warm enough to reap benefits?

Hi Zuzka, thanks for the tip about using warm or room temp water. I’ve been starting my day with an ICED lemon water, but after reading this article will change to warm. I’ll switch to the iced version later in the day as a refreshing treat after one of your ZCUT workouts! 🙂

Hi Zuz,
I love your workouts and I love your recipes and tips how to do on something really tasty and healthy! Before I tried to drink that lemon water I drank just a water with no lemon. I want to say that the lemon water really works! And it tastes really yummy! Thank you so much for for that little but very helpful tip!

I read somewhere you were in the process of making a recipe book. I would absolutely love a recipe book of the foods and recipes that you eat.
