Whether you’re a
mom, a coach, a writer, a small business owner or a yoga teacher, what you do
first thing in the morning matters. Choices that you make regarding your daily
routine either build up resistance to disease or tear it down. But, if you can
only make time for one ritual that will improve your health, let it be this starting
the day out with a mug of warm water and the juice of half a lemon. It’s so
simple and the benefits are just too good to ignore.

CLEARS SKIN: The
vitamin C component helps decrease wrinkles and blemishes. Lemon water purges

FRESHENS BREATH: Not
only this, but it can help relieve tooth pain and gingivitis. The citric acid
can erode tooth enamel, so you should monitor this. I admit, I’m slightly
worried about it.
