BENEFITS OF DETOX WATER
Benefits
Water is just plain good for us, but it is thought that it helps flush nasty toxins and waste through our system, giving organs like the liver and kidney an easier time doing their job. Purified water can address water contamination and can ensure safe drinking but our other product- Detox water has the following benefits:
Lemon
Lemon helps stimulate and regulate the digestive track (which is why it’s so helpful with constipation, heartburn and gas), stimulates bile production, and thins out bile, which allows it to flow more freely. Bile is produced by the liver and ends up in the small intestine to break down lipids (fats) that we’ve consumed.
A medium-sized lemon that weighs about 150 g provides the RDA (recommended dietary allowance) of vitamin C for an adult non-smoker (about 60mg). Smokers require about 50% more of this vitamin.
PROPERTIES AND INDICATIONS:
Vitamin C stands out in the lemon’s composition, only slightly less than orange. Lemons have virtually no proteins or fats and about 8.23% carbohydrates.
However the most interesting components of lemons from a dietary and therapeutic standpoint are not its nutrients, but rather its so called accompanying substances or PHYTOCHEMICALS. These are substances that lack any calories , and they are neither vitamins nor mineral salts, so they cannot be qualified as nutrients.
Organic acids (between 6 and 8%) among which citric acid is predominant, followed by lesser amounts of malic acid, acetic acid, and formic acid. These acids potentiate the action of ascorbic acid or vitamin C. And have a significant antiseptic effect.
Flavoniods, among which hesperidin and diosmin predominate. These are found in the peel and pulp of the lemon. They perform physiological roles:
-Antioxidants
-Protecting the capillaries
-Anticarcinogens
Terpenes: these are the substances that give citrus fruits their unique aroma. They are found primarily in the peel. The most abundant of these is d-limonene with its
