Should i not start out the day by juicing 1 to 2 lemons mixed with distilled water and raw honey? Do you know of any benefits to this combination on an empty stomach?

Lemons are not really a good fruits for us; they are not very nutritional; they supply you with little energy. The taste tells you this. You like eating a lemon just like that? A bitter or acid taste generally tells you that it contains susbtances that can easily bind to nutrinets / inhibit their utilization. You certainly don't need lemons, and they don't help you to lose weight or something. quote: Should i not start out the day by juicing 1 to 2 lemons mixed with distilled water and raw honey?
