 It is well known that lemon water is good for health and promotes weight loss while improving energy levels and digestion. Here are five rules for drinking lemon water:

1. Do not mix sugar or salt

Mixing sugar or salt in the lemon water increases its calories. Just by squeezing lemon in it, we add six calories. Hence, sugar and salt should be avoided for weight loss. 

2. Add Honey And Lemon Slices To Improve Taste

To enhance the taste of lemon water, one can add honey, lemon slices or mint to the drink. 

3. Don't Drink Lemon Water Throughout The Day

It is not necessary to drink lemon water throughout the day. Just drinking it habitually once or twice every day works well for weight loss. It is best to drink it first thing in the morning. 

4. Use Filtered Water

When making lemon water, one should always use filtered water. This is because the contaminants present in unfiltered water alter the properties of the mixture after interacting with it. 

5. Never Directly Consume Lemon Juice

Lemon juice should never be consumed directly as it may erode tooth enamel. It is best to dilute it with water and then drink it.
