Lemon is a very healthy citrus fruit loaded with antioxidants including vitamin C and flavonoids. Lemon juice has a low glycemic index, boosts metabolism, and does not cause a spike in blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n<p>Different Ways to Use Lemon Juice<br \/>\n\u2022 Consider having a glass of warm water with lemon juice first thing in the morning to increase your metabolism which will aid in weight loss.<br \/>\n\u2022 Refrain from adding sugar to the lemon water. Instead, you may use artificial sweeteners like stevia, erythritol, and monk fruit.<br \/>\n\u2022 Add lemon juice to a high-carb meal to lower its GI value and prevent blood sugar spikes.<\/p>\n<p>Lemons contain bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, that possess antioxidant properties. These compounds have been demonstrated to lower oxidative stress and inflammation, which are crucial factors in the emergence and advancement of diabetes.<br \/>\n A study shows that lemon juice helped lower the mean peak blood glucose concentration by as much as 30%. Lemon juice also delays gastric emptying time and helps in controlling glucose levels. Drinking lemon water 5-10 minutes before a meal prevents the postprandial glucose surge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7729","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-nutrition"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.3 (Yoast SEO v25.3) -
