Does lemon water works?

saanjali2003

Anyone tried warm lemon water in morning for weight loss?
I m not sure if I should try.

Lemon water is a tasty way to hydrate. It is not a weight loss method.

Try to think it through. With your common sense.

It tastes good. It hydrates you. And when I was working as a nurse, many little old ladies swore by it to get their bowels to move.

If you like it, drink it.
I imagine calorie count is next to nothing

But, No, doesn't magically do anything for weight loss.

Don't try it, you'll love it too much. So refreshing. Get a food scale and count calories if you want to lose weight.

When in doubt assume if it's easy it doesn't work.

Warm lemon water=easy=doesn't work since we have a global obesity epidemic which could be solved with lemons if it worked.

How would drinking lemon water possibly make anyone lose weight? Unless you're replacing something high calorie with the water instead it Isn't going to do a thing for weight loss. But it can make water taste better and of helps you drink more water and you like it then nothing wrong with doing it.

If putting lemon in your water inclines you to drink more of of it, hooray for better hydration.

Or you could take the money you'd spend on lemons, buy a food scale, log correctly, and lose weight.

I've switched out from my 2 coffee with cream and sugar to hot water and lemon. It is said to flush things out of you (lemons clean well! ) but I don't know if it's true. What it does do is help me hydrate much more regularly, assisting in the weight loss. Also, coffe used to cut my hunger in the morning allowing me to put off eating breakfast til almost noon. Now I eat by 830.

Coffee is also said to help you poop- so... But the water has less calories than creamer and sugar. I am not about to give up my coffee though.

It's a good mild detox. Also, if you're retaining fluid for any reason, it's will get the retention down faster. A natural diuretic.

Looks like it works best if you drink at least 8 cups a day tho

So I looked this up a while ago and websites claim it helps with weight loss but honestly I tried it and lost weight, but I also excercized a lot so it could have been from that. It might help mildly with digestion though

Do you have a link to a reputable, peer reviewed study on this?
