The goodness of Lemons..?

A couple of weeks ago, someone advised me to drink fresh lemon juice every morning after taking a glass of warm water, and about 1/2 hour before taking breakfast.

I was not really keen to follow d advice due to minor gastric, but after doing some search, I decided to give it a try.



Alhamdulillah, so far I'm ok with it.


(Fresh looking lemons given by that lady,
she must had really wanted me to try..hehehe..)



Here's some info I managed to get online :


Detoxifying your body helps remove unwanted toxins, mucus, and body fats.

Doing it with lemon juice is simple, easy to follow, and most importantly it does not require a lot of ingredients.

Lemons are well known carriers of vitamin C and antioxidants. Freshly squeezed lemons have the power to break down mucus and body fats thereby providing the most beneficial detoxifying factors.

Find good quality, preferably organic, fresh lemons and drink lots of water during the cleansing process. Water on its own, has the ability to rid the body of toxins.

Detoxifying your body will also help you feel younger, improve your digestion, help you look younger, help you lose some unwanted pounds (note : I like this, cheaper way of losing the kgs..haha).

Although they are acidic, they are alkalizing in your body.


********************



Its a normal routine since then for me to squeeze the lemon every morning and sometimes I'd take d lemon with hot water..
esp when I felt guilty of eating more than I should..
hehehe..







Now I wonder how long will it take to lose that "unwanted fats".

hehehe..

Kalau rasa nak sakit tekak tu, I perah lemon ngan air suam, letak gula sikit. Selalunya guna limau nipis, tapi x semua kedai ada limau ni, jadi I use lemon... rasanya oke je :)

banyak betulkan guna limau/lemon ni, dulu-dulu pernah dengar orang gunakan perahan lemon ke limau untuk penjagaan keris. Ada juga yang gunanya untuk "potong stim" kalau dah terlebih dos pekena g*nj* atau pakal*l* :)
