Lemon water may help flush out excess water retention.
You might notice lighter, less sluggish mornings and a minor improvement in skin clarity.
Things to Keep in Mind
Turmeric Absorption: Curcumin is not easily absorbed on its own. Adding a pinch of black pepper and a small amount of healthy fat (like coconut oil) can improve effectiveness.
Acidic Nature of Lemon: Frequent consumption may erode tooth enamel. Drink through a straw and rinse your mouth with water afterward.
Not a Miracle Cure: One week is too short to expect major weight loss, dramatic detoxification, or curing chronic inflammation.
Realistic Expectations After a Week
Increased hydration and mild morning energy boost
Improved digestion and less bloating for some people
Subtle anti-inflammatory support (mostly noticeable for those sensitive to joint discomfort)
Slightly brighter skin or feeling “lighter”
How to Make It
Warm 1 cup of water (not boiling).
Squeeze half a lemon into the water.
Add ½–1 teaspoon turmeric powder.
Optional: a pinch of black pepper and a small drizzle of honey.
Stir well and drink in the morning on an empty stomach.
