What could lemon water do to your body
We all may drink lemon water and find it somehow useful; here are some of things that you can gain by drinking water with a piece of lemon in it.
1.Helps digestion.
If you drink a cup of lemon water on an empty stomach in the morning that would ease bloating, gas and constipation. Lemon contains minerals that promote healthy digestion, alleviate heartburn, and stimulate healthy bowel function by reducing bloat and stimulating bowel movements
2. Promotes Weight Loss.
Some evidence suggests lemon water may help shed those stubborn pounds. The tart citrus flavor makes lemon water more refreshing and easier to drink than plain water, and this could encourage people to drink more fluids. It also curbs the appetite, hydrates, and helps prevent binges on sugary sweets.
3. Boosts Immune function.
The abundance of vitamin C in lemon provides a powerful immune boost and increases electrolytes to help support the immune system when the body is fighting off infection or illness. Lemons also contain bioflavonoids, which fight free radicals that can cause inflammation and blood vessel damage. Add lemon juice, honey, and ginger root to a cup of hot water for a potent immune-enhancing drink.
4. Freshens Breath
Bacteria or lingering food particles can cause bad breath. Lemon water can help alleviate many causes of bad breath by neutralizing the odor from foods like onion and garlic. It also stimulates saliva production, which helps flush the mouth of food and bacteria. Dry mouth can also cause bad breath, so staying hydrated with lemon water can prevent this issue.
5. Lowers blood pressure
Lemon is an excellent source of potassium, a mineral that can regulate blood pressure and maintain heart health, factors that reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, anxiety, and depression. Potassium deficiency can cause abnormal heartbeat, palpitations, anemia, and headaches. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables is the best way to get enough potassium, but lemon water can increase the quantity of this mineral without extra calories.
6. Treats Gallstones
The citric acid in lemon juice can help treat gallstones, calcium deposits, and kidney stones. For centuries, people have used a gallbladder flush made from lemon juice and olive oil. This method involves fasting for 12 hours then drinking 4 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice eight times every 15 minutes. While lemon juice shouldn't take the place of medical attention in these instances, it could serve as a supplementary treatment.
7- Supports detoxification.
Lemon water may support liver detoxification by activating digestive enzymes in the liver. Additionally, it may also be effective at lowering blood and liver cholesterol as shown in an in-vivo study.

Nowadays almost everyone is concerned with the impact of coronavirus, mainly on self health and family members, not to mention the concern for the business or the job. So far, there is no evidence that Covid -19 can be transmitted by water. Conventional treatment method that use filtration and disinfection by the municipalities should remove or inactivate the virus. US Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (A Guide for drinking water treatment and technologies for household use) shows that RO filter membrane pore size is 0.0001 Micron. Information about Coronavirus size is around 0.1- 0.12 Micron. Since the RO membrane filter pore size around 1000 time smaller the size of the corona virus , there is no way that this virus can pass through the RO unit purification system . If you drink bottled water, It may be a good solution , however it is difficult to store large quantities at home. When installing a water filtration / purification system some people don’t go into the details of what this system can offer them, as if the water filters are only one type and doing the same thing. The amazing thing about RO purification that it can remove some bacteria& viruses according to membrane pour size and the virus average particle size. The RO membrane is the core element of the Reverse Osmosis water purification system. The working principle behind reverse osmosis is the application of pressure to water. This allows water molecules to pass through the RO membrane, which intercepts heavy metals and other inorganic salts, organic matter, bacteria & viruses. The RO membrane separates the purified water from the waste water.
This is the first blog that may help people to differentiate between an equipment for water conditioning and water softening. In many towns and cities hard water need to be treated before even going into your appliances or equipment to avoid damages that eventually will happen if you keep using hard water . The issue that a softeners need to add a type of salt , in many cases it is the regular salt that is Sodium chloride . The softener is basically an ion exchange reactor ( bottle) that would replace calcium and magnesium with sodium. Since sodium is not a hardening ion, getting rid of these two ions ( calcium and magnesium ) will convert the water from hard to soft water. Adding the salt is periodic depending on the softener resin capacity and amount of hard water going through that resin in a certain period of time. This activity is tedious , and sometimes hard , especially most of the softeners are in basements or lower level and the salt bags are heavy for most people and for those who have lower back pain or elderly people. Many sellers , whether they know or they do not know , tell people that they have a water treatment equipment that can leave no deposits on their appliances and shower heads without using any salt,and this is half the truth . The conditioner makes the sticky ions namely calcium and magnesium suspended in water and do not stick or adhere to surfaces such as pipes , appliances , shower heads on the short run . However , it does not remove these ions . So basically the hard water is still hard water but in another form. To explain , if you take conditioned water and put it into water heater ( home electrical kettle) you will see the deposits of these ions when the water starts to evaporate the water. Unlike softened water, If use conditioned water with soap or detergent you will use excessive amounts of these detergents similar when using hard water. There are numerous types of conditioners some of which using electrical current others are using chemicals and they all target one thing is to keep the hardness causing ions ( calcium and magnesium)suspended in water . Softeners on the other hand will almost totally remove these hardness -causing ions .
