I looked for the dehydrated lemon at the groc. but couldn't find it, so I just bought the bottled juice -- cheap groc store brand. Lemons, like everything else, have gotten so expensive! But I am feeling inspired today, cause hubby agreed to do this week AF with me -- he'll probably hate it but I need his help. So I am cleaning out the fridge, putting away the groceries, and what do I find but a couple of whole lemons! Gonna go make some lemon water now. Good to know about the liver thing, too.

For those of you using fresh lemons, are you juicing/squeezing the lemon, or putting whole slices in the water?

Healer,

Thanks for the tip. I can't use fresh lemons on trips but I sure could buy a bottle of real lemon juice at the start of the week and use that.

I, too, and finding lemon juice to help me. I think because I used to drink red wine, which is fairly acid and the lemon juice is acid. I don't add much sweetener at all.

CS, for fresh, I squeeze, not sure about the others, though.

Love,
Cindi

I am definitely gonna try this, I have to have a lemon or lime in the frig somewhere! I guess squeeze the slice and then ditch the seeds and put the remainder in the glass, yep, that's what I'm gonna do. Thanks guys, you're the best! I need an AF vacation (Or stay-cation, cuz that is what this is).

Love the Harry Niilson song, it is the Friday afternoon song I play at work. Harry was an alkie?

I am going to try this also.......from what I hear on this thread it sounds like a good alternative - and a natural, detoxifying one at that.

Thanks for the tip! Looking forward to seeing how it works for me!

Make a big pitcher of lemonade and sweeten it with stevia, that's very good.

I drink my water with lemon all the time, lemons are expensive. Does the "real lemon juice" do the same thing? Is it a detox also?

Bump for Blanchieboo

I have been using the reconstituted lemon juice in a bottle, grocery store brand. It is just so darn easy -- it's in the fridge, and squirt some into your water glass. It was about $2 for the bottle, so way cheaper than using "fresh" lemons. It's not fake lemon flavor, so one would assume that lemon juice is lemon juice, as far as the detox abilties. I do like the real fruit, but once in a while and for good reason, small concessions are OK. (at $1 a lemon around here!)

I use the lemon juice as well. Bought a big 18# bag of grapefruit at Costco last week. Cost less than 5$. Sliced it into wedges, water and a fancy glass, it is really refreshing and a change from lemon.

Bump for newbies. The lemon really does take that edge off the craving, and several here say it's good for your liver.
