1. Reduces abdominal bloating. 

If your pants feel tighter than usual, a glass of lemon water may be a good solution. "Lemon water is a diuretic, reducing body bloating as the body tries to retain water," said Jodi Greebel, nutrition consultant at Citation.

2. Increases immunity. 

If you are living a regular life right now, a little lemon water will further strengthen your immune system. Alicia Galvin, the resident nutritionist at the Sovereign Institute, said: “One lemon contains about 20 mg of vitamin C, which helps the immune system and acts as an antioxidant. This is equivalent to 20% of the recommended daily intake.” 

3. It can improve digestion. 

If you feel like you're having digestive problems, fibre is good, but drinking lemon water in the morning is a good alternative. Drinking lemon water in the morning stimulates bowel movements. 

4. You can have healthy skin. 

“Moisture improves skin health,” said Jessica Bifen, nutritionist at Essentia Water. Creams and serums can keep your skin healthy, but you can't achieve optimal skin condition without moisture." In addition, lemon water has a high antioxidant effect, so drinking lemon water makes your skin firm and prevents aging such as wrinkles.”
