Healthier Daily Drink Ideas

Though lemon juice does contain some healthy boosts, it is not healthy for everyone and should not be overindulged. Consider trying out some of these healthy alternatives.

  • Opt for a high protein, high green smoothie in the morning to replace both your morning drink and breakfast.
  • Try out an herbal tea, such as dandelion root, which has the nutty, rich taste of coffee and assists the liver with detoxification.
  • Add a dose of brain power to your daily coffee or tea, by adding coconut oil, ghee, or grass-fed butter right into the brew.
  • Kombucha is a fermented drink that contains loads of probiotics – the bacteria that fill our gut and boost our immune system. It can be brewed easily at home from store-bought kombucha, tea, and any fruit flavorings you love.

 

Too Much Lemon Juice  – What to Watch Out For

You may experience headaches, tooth pain, or diarrhea if you consume too much lemon juice. Be sure to fully dilute it, and discontinue use if you begin to experience symptoms of too much lemon juice. While consuming lemon juice, be sure to also monitor your vitamin C levels to not overdose.
