Lemon infused water

The human body is 70% water. We want to start preparing for the daily tasks ahead of us by cleansing the body internally. When making lemon-infused water, always use fresh lemons. Squeeze half a lemon for every 8 ounces of water. Make a pitcher for the refrigerator and just slice lemons into it. I prefer slicing lemons into my water bottle and drinking with a straw because I tend to drink more water this way. To make it as healthy as possible, use filtered water and organic lemons.

Below are the top benefits of drinking lemon water.
