Tasty Tuesday: Benefits of Drinking Coconut Water

Dear Wonderful Reader,get-attachment.aspx 2Lately I have been consuming a considerable amount of Coconut Water. Mainly, because its so delicious and incredibly refreshing. Also, after doing a little research, I found out many health benefits to this magic potion. Feel free to make it a part of your daily routine.

Why Drink Coconut Water?

1. Accelerates Digestion

since it contains lots of fiber.

2. Lowers Blood Pressure

since it contains an ample amount of electrolytes.

3. Boosts Hydration

since it contains 294 mg of potassium and 5 mg of natural sugar per serving.

4. Helps in Weight Loss

It’s rich nature makes you feel full and suppresses your appetite without having a high caloric-count.

5.  Clears out Skin

it’s rich, nutritious nature detoxifies and moisturize the skin.

6. Cures bad Hangovers

it will calm your stomach and replaces the electrolytes that departed your body due to vomiting or  urination.

7. Bursting with Nutritions 

since it contains calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium and sodium.

8.  Harmonious with Human Blood

This is a very complicated point to explain, but pretty much Coconut water could be used to save lives when its being used medically.

P.S. Feel free to substitute your current snack or dessert routine with a serving of Coconut Water because it fills you up pretty nicely and it’s also sweet. So Sweet!!

P.S.S. The “Naked” brand could be quiet over priced, so feel free to get any cheaper brands, or better yet buy a coconut =]

Dear Wonderful Reader, 

I present to you Warm Lemon Water for a more wonderful-looking-and-feeling you!

This simple step has been a part of my morning routine for the past two weeks and it has proven itself to be a success. I have researched and it appears that lemon has great beauty and health benefits (hence, all the beauty and skin products that are made with lemon/lemon extract). The list could go on and on but I’ll just present you with the top benefits.

Benefits of Drinking Warm Lemon Water

1. Clears Skin

because vitamin C and the other antioxidant found in lemon help revive and rejuvenate the skin, clear acne and blemishes, and decrease wrinkles.

2. Improves Digestion

by flushing out toxins and prompting the production of bile.

3. Helps Cure the Common Cold

and aids against immune system deficiencies.

4. Boosts the Sense of Well-Being

because of its refreshing taste, scent, and color.

The Recipe

1. Warm up the water. I usually drink it at 120 Fahrenheit and I use regular water from my faucet.

2. Squeeze half a lemon in your cup, preferably fresh or no more than a day old (make sure to keep the other half of the lemon in the fridge).

3. Pour the warm water in your cup and start your morning the right way!

Enjoy…
