when life gives you lemons…

I forgot when or why I started obsessing over fresh squeezed lemon juice, but I think it’s been few years now. Fresh squeezed lemon has such different flavor than those bottled ones you get from the store. I actually keep a big glass bottle of water on my kitchen counter spiced up with some fresh lemon juice and make sure before the day is over I’ve finished it. Why I keep it on the counter is because I don’t like to drink anything too cold. And refrigeration makes it too cold for me. Doesn’t feel nice on my throat. I’m just weird like that, I guess.

I love my retro citrus juicer

Lemons are filled with flavor, while delivering an extra blast of vitamin C and enzymes. Lemon has been associated with boosting liver’s function and tissue regeneration, which is helpful while cleansing, as the liver is our main detoxifying organ. 
 
To maximize cleansing benefits, get into the habit of drinking one hot mug of water with the juice of half a lemon squeezed in, first thing in the morning. Refresh yourself throughout the day with cool lemon water. Source
Let’s get lemonized!
