Did you know that fasting on honey and lemon juice (an alkaline food) is a beneficial treatment for obesity without the loss of appetite and energy?
This is a natural home remedy for lowering cholesterol levels and cutting down on obesity. How it does this is by mobilizing fat deposits in your body so that they can be used as energy. Energy for what? purifying blood and other normal functions.
Recipe: 1 tspn raw honey, 2 tspn lime/lemon juice in a glass of water. The water should be warm (not hot) and the honey should be unheated. Drink in the morning upon waking up and with an empty stomach. It can also be taken after big meals.
What it can do:
Reduce weight, belly fat, obesity: its fat free, low in calories, and it melts fats in the body.
Cure cough: it removes phlegm from the throat much better than store bought cough syrup.
Cure digestion problems/constipation: its a tonic for digestion. It restores the body’s PH level and improves liver function.
Boost immunity: it boosts the body’s immune system.
Helps with colds and flus: Its rich in Vitamin C. You might want to add ginger slices to the drink here.
Detoxifies: it has antibacterials and antioxidants. They flush out toxins. Its also a diuretic and improves hormonal action.
Antioxidants seem to be a big part of the foods that are being called superfoods these days.
Several compounds belong under the heading, “antioxidants.” Vitamin A, C, and E are there. So are polyphenols in vegetables and fruits.
What they can all do: neutralize harmful molecules in our cells, called “free radicals.”
Free radicals can cause cancer. This is because they have unpaired electrons. Having a single electron makes the molecules reactive. They can attack components inside our cells.
We don’t know where free radicals come from yet for sure. Some are made from reactions in our cells, others come from environmental elements like pollution, UV light, radiation, tobacco smoke.
We do know how to partially protect ourselves against them though. And that includes eating anti-oxidant rich food.
A woman named Crystal Davis felt that she needed to try it for herself. She embarked on a 12 month journey, during which she drank honey and lemon water every morning. She wanted to see if there would really be any difference in her health. In short, Crystal was blown away by what the morning drink did for her and her loved ones.
First of all, to do this experiment, Crystal used all natural ingredients. No chemist-bought, artificial packets or fake honeys. She worked with raw honey and fresh lemon juice. She does admit skipping some days, but, all in all, she tried to follow the protocol as diligently as possible.
After 1 year, these were the main things she noticed:
During the 12 months she was drinking her morning concoction, Crystal developed no cold, flu or digestive problem. There were days when she felt slightly run down, low in energy or had a light headache. However, in the whole year, no illness materialized. She described that as particularly surprising, as she is known to frequently suffer from maladies and bugs attack her readily. She often had quite strong headaches in lots of different locations, which are highlighted on articles similar to https://treatheadaches.com/headache-locations/, so for her to only have light headaches was a huge improvement.
She no longer craved coffee in the morning. It seemed that honey and lemon replaced her need for caffeine. Her new choice of a morning drink came with an additional bonus: no caffeine crash or headache.
She became a morning person. The new morning habit also resulted in a new morning rhythm. Instead of feeling grumpy, Crystal reports feeling energetic and ready to start the day upon waking up.
The potion helped others as well. Crystal introduced her morning drink to other members of her family. They, too, had positive experience and reduced their sick days.
