9. Lemons
It might sound like a massive cinema cliche, but a glass of cool lemonade on a hot summers day is quite frankly one of the best things on the planet. And why wouldn’t it be, lemons are a marvelous fruit, and you can put them in almost anything. Think about it, lemons go well in desserts and savory dishes. They even pair well with alcohol. Now, we all know that it is a very versatile ingredient, but it is not a huge leap to consider what it can do for a person’s health.
When you bite into a slice of lemon, you can almost taste the goodness in it. When it comes down to fluid balance in the body, unsurprisingly, lemon can help here too. The reason for this is that it is a natural diuretic. But, this does not mean that eating a lemon sorbet will help you get rid of that excess water. If you are going to be consuming it for its health benefits, then it is best to stick to the fruit in its most natural form. This can be done by squeezing half a lemon into warm water and drinking it when you wake up in the morning.
