Warm lemon water and ginger

Stay hydrated this summer and give your digestive system a little detox and immune system a little support with this naturally soothing, anti-inflammatory Ginger and Warm Lemon Water drink.

Now, don't be fooled, if you've heard of warm lemon water for an easy detox, fat burner, drinking your way into weight loss, lose weight quickly, get a fat belly fast or any other "health claim" you may have heard, that may not be the case.

I will tell you this drink combination is no magic weight loss recipe or quick detox. It is simply one step in supporting your body into natural, gentle detox. It is a stepping stone in creating a foundation of a natural healthy lifestyle to reduce the number of toxins we consume as well as aid the bodies natural ability to remove the toxins we do encounter on a daily basis.

I’ve been waking up for a long time now with water first thing and highly recommend just starting there. Then after that became habit I added 1/2 fresh squeezed lemon juice, once that became a habit I added the ginger root.

Ginger root looks intimidating, I never really knew what to do with it or how much to use. However, it’s as simple as can be - after I watched a few YouTube videos lol. Just cut off a little nub, slice off the outer peal and grate right into your cup!

Warm lemon ginger water first thing on an empty tummy will give you a gentle little detox every day and can support overall health.
