10 Benefits of Lemon Water

10. It Counts Toward Your Eight a Day

Hydration is vital to optimal health and overall wellness. Dehydration can cause a lot of problems whether you were really working out hard or going about a typical day. The headaches, cramps, and lack of focus that come with it can be debilitating and eventually deadly in extreme cases. Re-hydrating is important, but many turn to sugary beverages or beverages loaded with caffeine that don't effectively improve the situation. On the other hand, the 64-100 ounces of plain boring water can be a tough to get through in a day, every day. Add a twist of lemon to your water to make it go down easier than plain.
