Now everyone knows that drinking lemon water has many health benefits, but when is the best time to drink lemon water? Wang Yi from Guang'anmen Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences made the following suggestions:
Lemon water can effectively stimulate gastric acid secretion and increase appetite, so drinking a glass of lemon water before a meal has a good appetizing effect, and drinking it after a meal also has Helps digestion.
In addition, drinking a glass of lemon water before going to bed at night can help you replenish the water lost while sleeping at night, and your skin will feel tender and tender when you wake up in the morning.
Some people like to drink a glass of lemon water after getting up in the morning. Although this can help eliminate constipation, lemon water is slightly acidic, so it is best not to drink it on an empty stomach.
When making lemonade, it is best to buy fresh lemon slices. Because fresh lemons are richer in vitamins, especially vitamin C, which can prevent skin pigmentation and have a whitening effect.
Please note that you cannot replace boiled water with lemon water for long-term drinking, because lemons are rich in citric acid, and long-term intake of citric acid will cause calcium loss. In addition, people with excessive gastric acid secretion, prone to acid reflux, and people with gastric ulcers should try to drink lemon water after meals to avoid gastric discomfort.
