Lemon Water Weight Loss

Lemon Water Weight Loss Benefits.

Rich in antioxidants, high in fiber and low in calories, limes are an effective weight-loss food. Lime is one of those foods that improve the body's ability to burn fat/calories, though the weight loss mantra still remains the same i.e. burning more calories than what you consume every day. You may have lime either by squeezing it in water or over delicacies/salads.


How lime helps one to lose weight

There have been several debates on the effectiveness of lemon in improving digestion and helping the body regulate sugar absorption, thus, helping in weight loss.  Lime helps the body detoxify by breaking food down with the help of stomach acid and move it into the small intestine where the nutrients are absorbed. Thereafter, food is converted into solid stool which is then eliminated naturally.



The Nutrition and Metabolic Research Center described lemon as a fat burner owing to the presence of vitamin C which helps the body to absorb calcium into its fat cells. Calcium in the fat cells restrains the desire to eat more, thus, preventing weight gain.  A study at Arizona State University also suggested that people who have foods that are high in vitamins such as lemons, oranges, and grapes are less likely to gain weight.
