Here’s a short recipe for anti-inflammatory detox water that, if used on a regular basis, may significantly enhance your skin, health, and weight loss.
You just need three items, one of which is water.
I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but I truly like detox beverages. Not because I believe they will miraculously improve my body composition and eliminate pollutants even if I consume junk food all day.
They’re my favorite since they’re a simple way to include more antioxidants and anti-inflammatory foods into my diet.
Even if I don’t feel like creating an anti-inflammatory smoothie or a salad, there’s always time to infuse some good vegetables into some water!
Lemon with ginger, for example.
They’re both fantastic for detoxing and lowering systemic inflammation in the body. A little amount goes a long way.
I’ve mentioned the lemon ginger drink I prepare every day a few times, but I’ve never given the recipe.
Today is the big day, people!
This is the ginger lemon water that I drink on a daily basis!
It’s refreshing, makes me want to eat less (I nibble all the time), encourages me to drink less coffee and more water, making me feel more hydrated, energetic, and less bloated.
Drinking this is an easy approach to enhance your skin, health, digestion, and belly fat.
Because it reduces hunger and helps balance blood sugar, this lemon ginger water may also help you lose weight.
HOW TO CREATE ANTI-INFLAMMATORY GINGER LEMON DETOX WATER
There is a plethora of ways to produce this anti-inflammatory detox water.
But here’s how I go about it:
1 lemon (juice)
1 teaspoon grated ginger
4 filtered glasses of water
Optional: ice to keep things cold.
You combine everything and drink it throughout the day. You may also store the detox water in the fridge, but I generally don’t and drink it within 3–4 hours.
If you don’t want pieces of ginger in your water, I puree everything in my blender to ensure I get all the wonderful things from ginger, then sieve it. This method preserves the taste and antioxidants while removing the pulp.
Another alternative is to slice the ginger and lemon instead of grating and juicing them and infusing the water that way. This would result in a milder taste.
LEMON’S HEALTH BENEFITS
I know it’s a well-kept secret, but lemon is high in vitamin C.
How much is it?
So, for just 24kcal, you may get 44.5 mg of vitamin C, or 74 percent of the daily value, by eating one lemon. What a deal, right?
What if you ate two lemons?
Please, halt!
Who can withstand 48 kilocalories?
If you do decide to take that risk, keep in mind that having adequate vitamin C offers several health and cosmetic advantages, including:
antioxidant (for the prevention of illnesses such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurological disease)
anti-inflammatory properties (study)
improves your immune system.
enhances iron absorption.
keeps wrinkles at bay.
keeps the skin hydrated.
vital for good wound healing
and assists you in being calm.
protects against hair loss.
weight loss (a lower level of vitamin C in the body is associated with a higher degree of overweight)
essential for healthy nails and hair
The acidity of lemon may also help to reduce the glycemic index of high GI items like rice or bread (article).
GINGER’S HEALTH BENEFITS
Ginger is one of those foods that has gained popularity in recent years due to its health benefits:
reduces blood sugar levels.
decreases inflammation.
Fights fungal infections as an antioxidant (to prevent illnesses such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer’s).
alleviates nausea.
can assist with arthritis.
alleviates muscular and joint discomfort.
may aid with constipation.
WATER BENEFITS (YES, REALLY!)
Last but not least, there’s water! It’s amazing how much good drinking enough water can do for you:
improved energy levels
enhanced memory
improved skin
actually, burns more calories and keeps you from overeating.
improved digestion
