Awesome Water

So for the last few months I've been quite into having a hot lemon water.  Sometimes I've had lime water and recently I've had ginger and turmeric.

So you might be thinking hang on a minute ain't that the stuff that goes in curry?

But in actual fact these can also be drunk with water or in a juice.  Fresh, powdered or consentrated.  For instance when I first started out was using a bottle of consentrated lime juice just dripping in few drops into my pint of half boiled water half cold water.   Make sure you put just a little boiled water in bottom of glass to heat up the glass before pouring more. Usually I do half an half or just a bit more hot water so it's nice an warming. Not too hot tho as it can burn, the reason I'm having warm water is that it's good for getting the digestive system going in the morning. Nice an soothing with the lemon wich is also cleansing.  I have added slices of ginger as ginger is a great anti inflammatory so is tumoric. As I only have powder form I have kept a spoon in so I can stirr it as I drink.  Be warned tho go easy on the turmeric as it has an quite a kick to it if you put loads in first time. Best to build it up gradually. 

Here is a link to more information on how awesome tumoric is.

It's well worth having this spice in your healthy food arsenal as it has so many benifits it would be silly not to.
