Drink a glass of lukewarm water with lemon juice in it every morning. Better yet, drink lemon water throughout your day. What's so great about lemon water?
Lemon water is very alkalizing and when your body is in an alkaline state your body functions more optimally. The body's entire metabolic process depends on an alkaline environment.

In addition, acid also provides a favorable environment for harmful bacteria and other micro organism that can damage organs, glands and body cells.
