It’s one of the simplest routines to implement…
When you wake up in the morning, put on a pot of water to boil. Let the water heat up to room temperature or a little warmer and remove it from the heat. Fill a mug with the warm water and squeeze half a lemon into it. Sip it as you wake up and get ready for the day.
This simple ritual works to cleanse your liver by helping flush toxins from your system.
Warm water helps support digestion.
Lemon is high in Vitamin C and helps calm liver inflammation
Why a Liver Cleanse?
With exposure to thousands of toxic chemicals, heavy metals and poisons from our air, water, food supply, homes, cars and more, it is important to support our detoxification pathways. This starts with the liver.
The liver functions to filter your body of toxins, but it can get over worked and a build up of toxins can occur.
Symptoms of Toxic Overload
You may experience some of these symptoms if your body is overloaded with toxins:
- weight gain
- brain fog
- bloating
- constipation
- heartburn
- autoimmune disease
- acne
- chemical sensitivity
- fatigue
- PMS
- Allergies
- Headache
- Joint and muscle aches
In addition to eating a diet of real foods, lemon water in the morning is an easy routine to help love your liver and support detoxification.
Need More Help with a Deeper Liver Cleanse?
Lemon water is a great routine to implement, but if you are experiencing many symptoms of toxic overload, you made need a deeper liver cleanse. I like to do a more intense/focused liver cleanse twice a year and just finished one last week. My energy has increased and my skin is even more clear!
