Lemon water peeled or not peeled good
Not peeled bubble better.
Lemons must be peeled and sliced thinly, as this part of the rind contains more flavonoids and may be more worthy of steeping than the lemon pulp. Lemon essential oils are also found primarily in the peel, and if it is sliced thinly, the aromatic components of the lemon peel can easily blister.
Lemons are rich in fruit acids, vitamin C and other ingredients. However, lemon peels are relatively high in fiber. Soaking lemon peels in water can effectively integrate the fiber into the water. When consumed, it not only promotes intestinal peristalsis and improves constipation, but also lowers blood pressure and blood lipids. However, it should be noted that stomach ulcer patients are not recommended to drink too much lemon water, otherwise it may lead to acidic substances to irritate the gastric mucosa and cause stomach pain.
The right way to make lemon water
There are the following:
1. Not too much. Many people will put a lot of lemons in their lemonade, and some won't even cut them into slices. In fact, putting 3-5 slices of lemon in your lemonade and then brewing it with warm water is fine.
2. Don't peel the lemons: apply salt on the skin first, then rub it for a while, rinse it under running water, and then slice it.
3. The temperature of the water should not be too high: too high a water temperature will easily cause the loss of nutrients in the lemon and the flavor will be bitter, but the temperature should not be too low, otherwise the lemon's aroma will not be easy to emerge.
When steeping lemon water, if you want a stronger flavor, you can add a little honey as appropriate, and try to choose fresh lemons. Dried lemon slices are not as nutritious or flavorful as fresh lemons.
