Benefits of Drinking Warm Honey-Lemon Water
19 February 2015
Both honey and lemon are known for their innumerable health benefits. They possess
antibacterial and antioxidant properties, which work together to not only boost
the immune system but also act as a beauty tip which promotes healthy skin and hair.
Drinking honey and lemon mixed with warm water, every morning, on an empty stomach
is often recognized as one of the best way to lose weight. But this mixture, if
had at the right time in the day, can do much more than help you reach your weight
loss goal. Here are 6 ways in which a mixture of honey, lemon juice and warm water
can help act as a beauty tip that keeps you fit and healthy.
- Aids Digestion and Cleansing - It detoxifies your body by flushing out unwanted
materials and toxins from the body. It also helps in digestion by clearing out the
digestive track. The digestive qualities of lemon juice help to relieve symptoms
of indigestion, such as heartburn, belching and bloating.
- Boosts Immune System - Helps fight cold with its high vitamin and potassium
content, which stimulates brain and nerve function. Potassium also helps control
blood pressure.
- Clears Skin - Honey and lemon act as antioxidants that helps decrease wrinkles
and blemishes while combating free radical damage. Vitamin C is vital for healthy
glowing skin and also helps in reducing acne or rashes while honey makes your skin
supple and glowing. It also gives your skin instant fairness. Learn more on how to get fair skin using honey.
- Energizes and Enhances Your Mood - They aroma of honey-lemon has a mood enhancing
effect due to its energizing properties. It provides your body with more energy
when it enters the digestive tract. Consuming warm honey-lemon water can brighten
your mood and help clear your mind while reducing anxiety or depression.
- Freshens Breath - Besides refreshing your breath, a honey-lemon mix is also
known to help relieve tooth and gum pain. But be careful, as it can damage your
tooth enamel if the lemon is used in excess. Make sure to rinse your mouth with
water before brushing your teeth.
- Helps in Weight Loss - Last but not the least, honey-lemon water is an excellent
natural home remedy for obesity and lowering of cholesterol levels. Fasting on honey
and lemon-juice is highly beneficial in the treatment of obesity without the loss
of energy and appetite. For this natural cure, mix one teaspoon of raw honey with
two teaspoons of lime or lemon juice in a glass of warm water (not boiling hot water!).
Take this remedy as a wake-up drink once in the morning on an empty stomach. You
can also take it as an effective digestive and detox tonic after lusciously spread
feasts and oily meals. And of course, always keep in mind that it’s equally important
to follow a healthy diet and a regular exercise regime over the long run to keep
yourself healthy and hearty.
