Cook with lemon juice to slim down

Fight hunger cravings

Cooking with lemon juice adds that special kick of flavour to food. Not only that, but it's a great weight loss aid as well.

Lemon juice is low in calories and packs an incredible zesty flavour. Use it in chicken dishes, salads, baking goodies, tea, and water.

Lower your daily calorie intake by mixing lemon juice and a bit of olive oil for a tasty salad dressing.

Or, if you're feeling adventurous, grate some lemon zest and throw it in the pan the next time you stir fry veggies for supper.

Lemons are high in pectin fibre, which helps fight hunger cravings.

Enjoy a cup of hot water and lemon juice at the start of your day to help boost your immune system. This is especially a good idea with the infamous cold and flu season just around the corner.
