Mmmmmm… Water! ?
.
Spoiler alert ➡️ It’s not gonna be the miracle cure diet culture makes you think it’s gonna be. ?♀️ The amount of recipes I’ve seen this past week on IG for “Flat Tummy Water” Is BANANAS! ? And it’s also a bogus concept.
.
Sure, it might be yummy tasting water (except fun fact: I h8 lemon water ? so not to me) but the “magic” of this water comes from it helping to hydrate your body and that’s really the extent of it. It’s not going to magically regulate your pH (your body does that) and it’s not going to provide a hugely significant daily dose of vitamins or minerals to your body- food is going to be much more efficient at that (like, a red bell pepper has 15x more vitamin C than your lemon water)
.
Moral of the story ➡️ if you like the taste of lemon water, enjoy it! If it helps you drink more water- fab! But all of these flat tummy water recipes? Keep on scrollin’.
