Now people pay more and more attention to health. Drinking lemonade is a habit of many people. So, what are the benefits of drinking lemonade? Let's take a look below.

Lemon is rich in vitamin C. It has a role in the human body like natural antibiotics. It has various effects such as antibacterial anti-inflammation and enhance human immunity. Usually, we can drink more hot lemonade to maintain our bodies.

Lemon contains citric acid, which can help improve the body's absorption of calcium. Under this premise, human bone density will increase, so it can effectively prevent bone hyperplasia.

Lemonade can also prevent cardiovascular disease, prevent and assist in the treatment of hypertension and myocardial infarction. Lemonade contains a large amount of citric acid, which can inhibit the crystals of calcium salt, thereby preventing the formation of kidney stones, and even reducing the stones of some patients with chronic kidney stones.

Fresh lemonade is a good drink with extremely low sugar. The energy contained in lemonade can be ignored, so it will not make people gain weight. However, it is different after adding sugar or honey to lemonade.

Sweet lemonade contains about 5%sugar, whether it is fruit sugar or sucrose in honey. Calculated according to 5%sugar, a paper cup (200 grams) with sugar honey water contains 40 kcal in water. If you drink two cups, it is equivalent to eating 1/4 bowl of rice, so people who control weight still need to drink less sweet lemon water.

When is the best time to drink lemonade? Experts suggest drinking 15 to 20 minutes before a meal in the morning is good for your skin. Then have a drink between 3 and 4 p.m. and exercise for an hour between 5 and 6 p.m. If you want to achieve slimming effects, lemon water must be drunk every day, three to four times a week, each exercise must be up to an hour.

It's worth noting that no matter how good the food is, we can't overeat it, and lemons are no exception. There are many women who hurt their stomachs by drinking too much lemonade every day in an attempt to achieve beauty. Therefore, drink a moderate amount of lemon water, not more than 1 liter a day.

Some seafood, such as shrimp and crabs, contain rich protein and calcium elements, but the content of fruit acid contained in lemon is more, and the fruit acid and protein will form sediment. This will not only reduce the nutritional value of lemon but also cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Therefore, we should avoid eating these two foods at the same time.

Below are some precautions for lemonade:

Fresh lemon has a strong aroma, while the aroma and vitamin C of dry lemon have certain losses. Do not throw away the lemon peel when cutting the lemon. Because some flavonoids of lemon peels are higher, such as orange lever glycoside, grapepertinosides, etc., they are all good healthy ingredients, and lemon essential oils are mainly inside the skin. Cut the lemon into thin slices, which is conducive to the volatilization of the aroma in the lemon peel.

If the water is too cold, the aroma of the lemon cannot be volatilized. If soaked in boiling water, there will be more bitter substances dissolved, such as orange levering. Some people are worried that the water temperature is too high will cause the loss of vitamin C.

In fact, the acidity of lemon is strong, and vitamin C has good thermal resistance under acidic conditions and is not so easy to lose. Therefore, the water temperature of lemon is generally appropriate at 60 ~ 70 ° C.
