Are you searching for a daily drink that is great for your health? One great option is warm lemon water with a couple of tablespoons of chia seeds.This is one beverage that’s great to sip throughout the day, due to its numerous health benefits. Lemon water alone is very healthy, and superfood chia seeds add even more to the nutritional punch.Let’s take a look at 10 reasons why warm lemon water with chia seeds should be a part of your daily diet:Lemons are high in antioxidants Lemons contain a high concentration of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These include vitamin C, calcium, potassium, magnesium, citric acid, pectin, limonene, and bioflavonoids. All of these compounds work together to supercharge the immune system, and to keep our bodies functioning optimally. Lemon water is great for detoxification Lemons happen to be a strong detox agent.

However, lemon water is no better than regular water when it comes to losing fat. That being said, it is tasty, easy to make and can be used as a low-calorie replacement for higher-calorie beverages.Lemons can help balance your body’s pH Although lemons taste acidic, they are actually alkalizing within the body. Due to their mineral content, they help to alkalize the blood. Because many people’s pH is too acidic in many cases due to an unhealthy diet or poor lifestyle habits, lemon water can help a lot.Balancing the body’s pH can help to lower inflammation and draw uric acid from the joints, which may help relieve certain cases of chronic joint pain.Lemons may help you to look and feel youngerBecause of their high antioxidant, vitamin, and mineral content, lemons can help you to feel your best.

They are high in fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, calcium, iron, and magnesium. They also contain vitamins B1 and B3, which are essential to a properly functioning nervous system. Additionally, chia seeds contain an abundance of antioxidants. Chia seeds boast a wealth of omega-3s Omega-3 fatty acids are amazing for our bodies! Omega 3’s have been linked to cardiovascular protection, lowering inflammation, and boosting cognitive function. These essential fatty acids, which must be derived from food sources, have also been associated with lowering insulin resistance, and potentially relieving depression. Chia seeds are full of heart-healthy fiberIt has long been known that fiber is vital to a healthy heart — and to healthy weight loss, for that matter. Chia seeds contain both insoluble fiber and soluble fiber, which can keep your cardiovascular system healthy. Fiber also helps you feel fuller for longer, thus preventing the urge to have unhealthy snacks.

The protein content in these healthy seeds promotes growth and development, building muscle mass, and thereby reducing your body fat in many ways.If you want to make this concoction it couldn’t be easier to make. Start with warm, purified water, squeeze in the juice of half an organic lemon, and add a tablespoon or two of chia seeds. The chia seeds will form a gel-like consistency in your glass, and are easy to sip.

Add a couple spoons of Apple Cider Vinegar to the mix and drink it in the morning on empty stomach. Better not to eat anything after that till lunch. You'll get the maximum benefits.
I generally mix the Seeds with water and let it sit overnight. This will release all nutrient into water.
