This final tip is something that has been used for centuries and can easily be incorporated into your daily regime.
Tip # 5 – Drink Water with Lemon in the Morning
Upon rising, it is extremely beneficial to kick off the day with a cup of hot water with lemon. Alternatively you can use room temperature water if you prefer. Simply take the juice of half a lemon and dilute it with water.
After a night of fasting, this is the perfect beverage to stimulate your body’s daily digestive and cleansing actions. It not only improves the body’s ability to rid itself of toxins, but it is also very alkalizing. A welcoming change to the acidifying “Standard American Diet”.
