Good Morning,

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. And in the interest of healthy living, when life gives you lemons, make lemon water.

Today, discover what you can do for yourself when you switch out your pop or your coffee with a simple drink like Lemon Water.

A glass of Lemon water every morning can not only give your body the vitamins, minerals, and elements your body needs, it is also an energy booster as well. A glass of lemon water in the morning will rehydrate you better than anything else you can drink in the morning.

However, it can also do so many more things for your body! Discover the Benefits of Lemon Water.

Oh, and per request from Lynda-Marie, and keeping with today's lemony theme, I have a delicious recipe of some Easy & Light Lemony Fish. Enjoy!

Regards,
Steve
