Benefits of Lemon for Health and Detox

Lemon has various health benefits. It stimulates the liver to flush toxins, aids digestion by stimulating bile production and breaking down foods, and fixes and extracts calcium from foods. Being anionic, lemon also assists in releasing energy from foods and breaking down fat stores. Lemon helps detoxify the liver and body, dissolving fatty tissues, mucus, cholesterol deposits, and calcium deposits. It can help with conditions like arthritis by dissolving crystalline deposits from joints and muscles. Lemon also benefits the skin, hair, mouth and more. A daily lemon water regimen can provide these benefits, with adjustments for individual circumstances.

WHY USE LEMON

The use of lemon has frequently been denounced by the medical health
profession as a food the body can do without. However, as it relates to the
biological ionization process the lemon is classified as an “anionic” substance.
This is not to say lemon juice would be found on the right side of the periodic
chart. Anionic substances are those which release the energy from a reaction
or stimulate the body to accent energy.

The most notable property of anionic substance is that it can establish a


“resistance” medica when in contact or reaction with other foods. This
resistance between nuclear atmospheres produces energy which the body can
modify to a frequency its organ systems can use. In simple terms, lemon, in
conjunction with calciums, helps extract the energy from the living aspects of
our food.

Lemon also stimulates the liver to flush itself of toxins. Within the liver it stimulates
biliary action making the bile more capable of breaking down food for
absorption. Therefore, the lemon is a valuable aid to digestion.

The lemon also “fixes” calcium. Calcium is essential to the process of building
bile salts. In general, it can be said lemon stimulates, detoxifies, decongests and
cleanses the liver; assists in bile formation and aids the digestion.

The lemon also “ties up” toxins and poisons in the digestive tract as well as
unwanted salts. Not only does this aid digestion but, just as importantly, it
reduces the absorption of toxins.

Being that lemon is “anionic” it assists in releasing energy. This elevation in


energy allows the body to do more and use the calories in the diet as it also
begins breaking down the fat pool.

Lemon detoxifies the liver. It’s long been known that a toxic liver contributes to
a toxic system. A toxic system uses energy poorly so toxins accumulate, body
activity slows, and the body starts relying on carbohydrates (as they are easier
to digest), the blood becomes erratic, the pancreas gets out of phase and the
body starts pulling the excess carbohydrates into the fat pool.

As a reducing agent, lemon juice is superior in every way to other dietary


systems because it dissolves and eliminates all fatty tissue. Fat melts away at the
rate of about two pounds a day for most persons – and without any harmful side
effects.

Lemon juice rapidly dissolves all mucus congestion and eliminates mucous
diseases such as colds, flu, asthma, hay fever, sinus and bronchial troubles
leaving the body free from the various allergies which cause difficulty breathing
and clogging of the sinus cavity.

Cholesterol deposits in the arteries and veins also respond to the cleansing
power of fresh lemon juice. Calcium deposits in the joint, muscles, cells and
glands are readily dissolved and removed from the body. Lemon will help
dissolve both cholesterol and calcium deposits in the gallbladder, as well as,
assist in the removal of calcium deposits in the kidneys.

Lemon has been used abroad in helping arthritic conditions. It seems to dissolve
or pull crystalline deposits out of joints and muscles. Lemon seems to do this
both directly and as a component of many interactions. It’s long been known
that a toxic and plated digestive system and a toxic liver contribute to
rheumatism and arthritis. Lemon also helps the body flush out uric acids and
urates. Excesses of these products accumulate in the joints and muscles. In a
joint they will produce “gout” and arthritis. In muscles they produce rheumatism.

Lemon is disruptive to intestinal parasites. Lemon plus grated lemon peel will not
only effect certain protozoan, parasite eggs and segments, but it will also render
some bacteria forms inactive.

Lemon will help dissolve both cholesterol and calcium deposits in the
gallbladder, as well as, assist in the removal of calcium deposits in the kidneys.

Lemon is a good gargle and lemon and honey have long been used to soothe
throat irritations and oral infections. It is acceptable to use honey and other
natural sweeteners with lemon, but processed sugar will neutralize the lemon’s
beneficial effects.

Lemon and olive oil on salads help soothe the gallbladder. Olive oil also “ties
up” unwanted alkaloids and will dissolve cholesterol gall stones.

An absolute intolerance to lemon is quite rare. Occasionally, it will be manifest


in people with problems relating to advanced cellular change (delta cells). As
the system begins throwing off these cells the person will begin to tolerate lemon
with few or no problems.

The lemon may also be uses externally. Many people with acne wash their face
in lemon juice. Not only is it death to the bacteria found associated with the
lesions, but it cuts the oil on the skin and acts as a mild antiseptic. Note: Many
authorities now realize that when a pimple appears it should be drained.
Otherwise the poisons cause scarring and eventually are reabsorbed into the
system to possibly cause problems elsewhere. Their main concern in draining a
blemish is the possibility of infection. Wash the area with a lemon slice (it may
burn) it will neutralize the bacteria that might cause infection, and it will clean
the wound of dead cells and tissue debris.

Lemon juice is excellent to cut the soap film and scum out of your hair. Lemon
juice will also wash out excess oil as well as neutralize unwanted scalp bacteria.

Skin disorders such as boils, abscesses, and carbuncles also disappear when the
body is cleansed using lemon juice. Lemon juice can be used to wash out scuffs
and abrasions. It will burn, but it does a good job of cleaning. It is also good for
insect bites – especially jiggers.

Lemon peel, with its high Vitamin C and bioflavonoids, is excellent as a massage
for the gums. If you are using the lemon as a source of vitamin C you will get
nearly ten times as much if you will carefully cut or peel away just the outer
yellow on the skin and run the lemon sections with remaining peel through a
juicer.

Lemon juice will kill bacteria in your shoes and will clean and deodorize your feet
and toughen sensitive skin.

Lemon Water Recipe: We mix lemon juice at a ration of 1:9; one ounce lemon
juice to nine ounces distilled water, up to a total of four ounces of fresh lemon
juice daily depending on the weight of the individual. Half the weight of the
individual converted to ounces is the rule for how much fluid one should drink
each day.

Example: A 160 pound individual would drink 80 ounces of fluid daily. Half of
the fluid intake each day should be lemon water. Therefore, our 160 pound
individual would drink 80 ounces of fluid a day of which 40 ounces would be
distilled water and 40 ounces would be lemon water.

Using our 1:9 ratio an individual would drink four ounces of lemon juice in 36
ounces of water. Four ounces of lemon water would be consumed on the hour
usually starting at 8:00 AM and four ounces of distilled water would be
consumed on the half hour. Neither water nor lemon water would be taken
during the hour set aside for meals.

This schedule would be followed until the person consumes the required amount
of fluid. In the case of the 160 pound individual it would take 10 hours
(irrespective of meals) to consume the recommended fluids.

Another Example: A 120 pound individual would drink 60 ounces: 30 ounces


each of distilled water and lemon water. Using the 1:9 ratio that would be 3
ounces of lemon juice in 27 ounces of water. At a total of 8 ounces of fluid per
hour (irrespective of meals) it would take 7 ½ hours to consume the
recommended fluids.

Several things to note: First, tree ripened lemons are more effective than lemons
picked green and allowed to ripen in transit. Many times lemon juice does not
seem to help; this is due to lemons that are virtually “dead” by the time they’re
purchased. Order a case direct, and then share them with your clients.

Second, some people who are greatly debilitated or who have very low reserve
energy levels will not be able to drink ¼ of their weight in lemon water. If this is
the case, cut the recommended amount in half.

Third, people with either high urea (above 20) or high salts (above 20) or both
should not be instructed to drink lemon water. Cleanse these people using
distilled water until their salt and urea levels come down, then you can start
them on the lemon water.

Fourth, burning in the pit of the stomach may signify an ulcer when they are on
a lemon juice regimen. These cases should drink two ounces of cabbage juice
several times a day instead of lemon water. Continue the water and increase it
to make up for the lost lemon water. Nothing is better than distilled water for de-
ionizing or de-plating the stomach or intestinal walls.

Fifth, lemon water may cause the liver to flush too rapidly and salts and urea to
dump too fast. If your retests show this to be the case, cut your lemon water in
half. In extreme cases you may have to pull the individual off lemon water for
several days and restart them on half the original amount and gradually build
up as their system clears. Sufficient rest during the initial phase of the program
will eliminate this condition.

Sixth, once in a great while the lemon water program may produce hives. This is
due to toxins being pulled out of the skin and the resultant response by the small
naked nerve endings just beneath the skin. Stick with it. They’ll go away unless
they are emotionally oriented.

Seventh, in some cases of gout or arthritis the lemon juice may have to be
initially doubled to check the problem.

Finally, with urine sugars below 3.00 you should add sweetener to the lemon
water to offer extra, rapid energy to the system. Never use white sugar; this will
neutralize the effect of the lemon. Use “local” honey, maple syrup, blackstrap
molasses or brown rice syrup, alternating between these sweeteners from day to
day. The body will respond to some sweeteners and not to others and it may be
hypersensitive to some. This rotation will minimize the hypersensitivity and yield a
better overall system response.
