LEMON WATER

The scorching rays of sun affects your body in different manners. it takes away all the fluids making the body tired and dehydrated. To beat the heat exhaustion from the sun rays, I prefer to drink lemon water.

After driving for long hours at work and coming back home I felt lethargic and dizzy. All the energy to perform daily house chore seems to be drained away. The lemon water at that moment elevates my mood and refreshes me to perform those household chores.

The brightly coloured and juicy lemons are vitamin infused and considered as natures bounty. The fruit is sour in taste but is good for health . When freshly squeezed in water the fruit makes a drink that not only provides refreshment but other health benefits.
