Notes
Use fresh, organic lemon juice for best results. Always shake or stir the mixture right before drinking as ingredients may separate. This tonic is best taken daily for consistent benefits. If you dislike the taste, chase it with a sip of warm water or herbal tea.
Tips
You can add a small piece of grated ginger for extra anti-inflammatory power. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce lemon juice slightly and increase warm water. Always use cold-pressed olive oil for maximum health value. Consistency is key—take it every morning for long-term liver support.
Health Benefits
Supports Liver Function: Lemon juice helps activate digestive enzymes and supports bile production, which aids the liver in toxin breakdown.
Aids Digestion: Olive oil lubricates the digestive tract and promotes smoother digestion while reducing bloating.
Anti-Inflammatory Power: Turmeric contains curcumin, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect liver cells from inflammation and oxidative stress.
Boosts Immunity: The combination of lemon and turmeric provides vitamin C and antioxidants that strengthen your immune system.
Improves Metabolism: Taken before breakfast, this blend wakes up your metabolism and helps your body process nutrients more efficiently.
