    I am pretty sure lemon seeds plus dark unsweetened chocolate is boosting my metabolic rate to insane levels. The fact that food is rushing through me so quickly is evidence of that. I really am melting the weight off.

    I actually did drink it for a whole 2 months. I started to like it. I used real lemon juice though the concentrated lemon juice tasted bad to me.

    I have been grinding up lemon seeds and rind (discarding pulp and juice) and spreading it on unsweetened chocolate. I have had absolutely astonishing results, although it does give me a touch of the runs.

    What I have heard about lemon and water - this is stuff from natural medicine and eastern medicine philosophies.

    1) it balances the ph levels in your digestive tract and neutralises acidity - the western diet is very acidic while our bodies are alkaline (not sure why this matters as I haven't read/heard about it much)

    2) it assists with methylation which is a chemical process at the cellular level. Again I haven't read much about this but is quite an interesting theory.

    My MIL is a kinesiologist and often tell me some quite interesting stuff.
    How exactly does a highly acidic food (lemons) neutralize acidity? The pH of your stomach acid is more acidic than any food we eat.
    There's really no food that makes our body more acidic.

    It is nearly impossible to "throw off your body's pH." If you somehow managed to do it, it would be a serious medical emergency which would lead to death very quickly.

    I can tell you this, I drink warm lemon water almost every morning and I have for about the last year. Its helped with my acid reflux, I rarely get heartburn anymore and if I do, its nothing to take a prilosec over. My skin looks really healthy and clear, no more acne ( I have no idea if that's the cause tho). Whether it works or does nothing, I will never know, but I just keep drinking it. 1 cup of that followed by 4 cups of green tea! It does not curb my appetite in any kind of way.

    I don't know how to use the diary stuff. I've lost almost 40 lb this month, but am not sure how to work the diary thing yet.

    HI.
    I am just wondering if it is true that if you add concentrated lemon juice to your water that it will cut back sugars that you consume throughout the day.
    I don't know where I heard this, but I really am curious.

    Thank you!

    Simple answer no.. What happens is you get water that tastes lemonny
