It may have shattered your whole belief in life but the truth is that it won’t be as effective as it can be if you consume it without the right procedure.
What is it?
Apparently, you don’t have to squeeze the lemon in the water, owing to the fact that most of the nutrients in are present in the pulp and peel of the lemon. When you squeeze lemon you lose all those nutrients. Instead of extracting the juice you need to cut a lemon in half and boil it in water for around five minutes.

That’s it, your lemon water is prepared with right procedure.
