Health Benefits of Drinking Lemon Water
Lemon water is a drink that is not only easy to prepare but also has many health benefits.
The nutritional content of lemon water may vary depending on the variety, size, and ripeness of the lemons. Lemons weigh on average about 65 grams (including peel) and contain about 57.8 grams of water, 18.8 calories, 1 gram of protein, 1 gram of fat, 6.06 grams of carbohydrates and 1.82 grams of carbohydrates and fiber.
Lemons are also rich in vitamin C. The average lemon contains 34 milligrams of vitamin C, which helps the body maintain a healthy immune system, scavenge free radicals (harmful substances that can promote cancer), support collagen production, and absorb iron from foods. Drinking a glass of lemon water can provide almost the amount of vitamin C we need every day.
Some studies show that drinking lemon water can help prevent certain types of kidney stones. Adding lemon to water can also help us drink more water. Drinking enough water and urinating regularly are also effective ways to prevent and treat kidney stones.
