One simple thing that you can do to support your body on a daily basis is to start the day off right with a cup of warm lemon water!
Begin by drinking 8 oz. of warm water (not boiling) with the juice from one half a lemon mixed in before breakfast. CAUTION: Don’t put lemon juice in water that’s warmer than 140°F, as this can break down all of the goodness inside.
This morning ritual helps thin bile to get it moving. It’s a great way to gently cleanse and detoxify your liver and kidneys*.
NOTE: Lemon juice is acidic and can affect teeth enamel. After drinking lemon juice/water be sure to rinse your mouth with plain fresh water!
Kick it up a notch with Lemon Vitality!
Lemon Vitality essential oil is cold pressed from the rind of the fruit, making it alkaline and not acidic like lemon juice.
Add 2 drops of Lemon Vitality to your cup and stir to combine. Sip before any other food or drink of the day!
