I heard if you put some fresh lemon juice and a slice of lemon into a cup of hot water, it's good for your health.
In the past I heard it rottens your teeth..


Is it healthy or non healthy?

Well it gives you Vitamin C and the citric acid from citrus fruits kills bacteria.

"Lemon and water both have clarifying actions in your body. Both lemon and water help flush out toxins in your system. Although lemons are acidic, they are alkalizing in your body.

Lemon water helps clean the toxins out of your body. Your skin can't look healthy if your body is holding onto toxins! When you get rid of toxic waste in your system, your skin will show it first! Your skin will be the first thing you notice cause it looks clear and not sallow and full of acne. However, that's not all the benefits that lemons provide for us! (Another healthy way to get rid of toxins that hold onto your fat and cause visceral fat, is by doing a health cleanse!)

Because of its high Vitamin C content, it is used to prevent and treat many infections, hasten wound healing, and diminish allergies. Lemon juice also relieves symptoms of asthma, tonsillitis, and sore throats.

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 us digest our food by helping your liver produce more bile. It also helps cut down on the amount of phlegm produced by your body. It is also thought to help dissolve gallstones"

^ Ooh, how exciting. I like to squeeze lemons all over my salads and I knew it was good but I didn't know why. I eat a lot of tomatoes and cucumbers too and I feel like my skin has been enjoying all three!

I hate hot water though and don't think I would really enjoy hot lemony water, either. But I'm guessing it would work in tea as well?

It rots your teeth if you brush your teeth right after drinking it. Acid softens the enamel of your teeth and if you brush your teeth while the enamel is soft, you're slowly stripping it off.
