7. Lemony Ginger Detox Water
Ginger has powerful detox properties and is a natural pain reliever so when you add it to lemon and water; you are creating a tasty yet super detox drink.
Simply grate about ½ an inch of organic ginger root (peel it first) into 16 ounces of pure water. Add the juice from ½ of an organic lemon and mix well. This will not only relieve joint pain and stop inflammation in the body, it will remove toxins at the same time. Simply heat two cups of water in a saucepan. Add 1 inch of organic, peeled and thinly sliced ginger root along with the juice of ½ of a large, organic lemon. Allow to boil for about 5 minutes, then strain. If this is too tart for you, add a little raw, organic honey. You can drink this hot, like a tea, or add a few more lemon slices and let it cool in the refrigerator, then drink cold or over ice.
