Lemon juice challenge

Ok more more more stuff. I was on youtube. (black hole to where I get pulled in.... But I love it)
So yea I saw a video on a lemon juice challenge. I was reading and watching articles and videos about the values of lemon juice. 1st of all the recipe calls for warm water with 1/2 to 1 "FRESH" lemon 1st thing in the morning with no food. I like to put a tablespoon of REAL maple syrup to take the tang out of it.

So here are the benefits

Nutritionally, lemon's potassium content nourishes the brain and nerve cells. Its calcium content builds healthy bones and healthy teeth. Its magnesium, in conjunction with calcium, plays an important part in the formation of blood albumen. One lemon contains 48.3% potassium, 29.9%calcium, 11.1% phosphorus, and 4.4% magnesium.

Lemons have been used to treat liver disorders, colds, coughs, flu symptoms, diphtheria, and fever.

Visceral fat is caused by an over-accumulation of toxins in your body! When toxins enter your body, they are surrounded by fat cells and then stored. Drinking lemon water is a healthy way to get rid of those excesses and lose weight!

Lemon can help relieve many digestion problems when mixed with hot water. These include nausea, heartburn, constipation and parasites. It is even known to help relieve hiccups when consumed as a juice.

Lemon juice acts as a liver tonic and helps you digest your food by helping your liver produce more bile. It decreases the amount of phlegm produced by your body. It is also thought to help dissolve gallstones.

Lemons help purify the liver by eliminating toxins and waste products.

Lemon juice also relieves symptoms of asthma, tonsillitis, and sore throats.

Because of its high vitamin C content, it is used to prevent and treat many infections, hasten wound healing, and diminish allergies.

Since lemon is a natural diuretic, lemons mixed with water is especially good for people with urinary tract infections. People with arthritis or rheumatism can benefit from consuming lemons because it helps flush out toxins and bacteria.

When lemons are mixed with coffee, it may help relieve headaches. It is possible that lemon juice cancels out the side effects of caffeine found in coffee. (Interestingly, although caffeine can sometimes cause headaches, many OTC headache medications include caffeine.)

Lemon water cleanses and purifies your body and also has an alkalizing effect. It is essential to every bodily function at a cellular level. Although bottled water has become a staple product of our present day society, its not your best choice for water consumption. You should drink water that's clean and pure. Use a home water purifying system at home and reuse bottles you've already got on hand. The water you drink is essential to your existence but we forget how much we rely on it until we don't have it. Then we really miss and crave it. (Think about Hurricane Katrina or the reality show Survivor!)

When you consume both water and lemon in your diet, you increase your chances of staying healthy longer. When you mix them together to make lemon water, you get a healthy way to replenish and rejuvenate your body.

Sooooooooo  I am excited about the benefits and what changes I can make in my diet/exercise regimen. They say to do it for 28 days but I think its not a hard challenge and will make it a daily  going forward.
