Can Lemon Juice Really Help You Lose Weight

So let me just do this short video to explain what lemon juice can do and what it can't do .

There's no study at all that demonstrates that drinking lemon juice is gonna help you lose weight .

However , there is some benefit to consuming lemon juice .

So let's just talk about the 3 benefits .

Number 1 , it has Citric Acid .

Okay ?

The advantage of consuming Citric acid is that it will bind with oxalates and reduce the connection between oxalates and calcium thereby reducing the risk of kidney stones .

So that's number 1 .

Okay .

Number 2 , lemon juice can provide a good amount of vitamin c .

So each lemon provides about roughly half the RDAs for vitamin C .

But if you buy lemon juice that's pasteurized which all the lemon juice out there on the shelf is pasteurized , that means it's heated .

That heat will destroy the vitamin c and so the amount of vitamin c you're gonna have is much much less .

But sometimes they add in vitamin c as a synthetic version of vitamin c called Ascorbic acid .

And my view point is it's not the same thing .

So lemons do have a good amount of vitamin c if it's in the raw state .

And there's a tremendous amount of benefits from vitamin C especially if you're deficient .

And number 3 , even though lemons are acidic , when you consume lemon juice that will turn into an alkaline compound about an hour after you consume it .

And the benefit of having your urine alkaline is that it will decrease the risk of gout .

So the painful symptoms of gout mainly occur when the pH of your urine is overly acidic .

So if we were to alkalize the urine a little bit , you would have less symptoms from gout .

And there's also a type of kidney stone that is involves Uric acid .

So this will potentially decrease your risk from getting Uric acid stones .

So that pretty much summarizes what lemon juice can do and definitely what it can't do .

It's not gonna help you lose weight but it has some other benefits right here .
