I'm cutting up and squeezing in 1/3 to 1/2 of lemon the majority of the time I drink water. It is because lemons contain soluble fiber, vitamin c, citric acid, and polyphenols combining for a nutritional power punch. I believe in lemons so much that I leave the peels on in my smoothie recipes and keep a container of a blended-up whole lemon, fresh ginger, and fresh turmeric in my fridge to pour into my green tea. I got the idea from Mr. Jim Kwik. Let’s get right to it.

The Power of the Lemon 🍋

  • They help us digest and balance our gut health.1

  • They support heart health.2

  • They help us metabolize fat and fight insulin resistance.3

  • They help us grow and develop through better iron absorption.4

  • They can fight against and aid in the prevention of cancer.5

Check out this video from Dr. Axe for a rundown of the benefits of lemons. 📺
