What are the benefits of drinking coffee with lemon? Dietitian speaks

Recently, unusual tips for losing weight are increasingly being found on social networks. Recently, there has been a trend of adding lemon juice to coffee.

Lemon juice in coffee is supposed to help remove fat deposits, but also to reduce the risk of diabetes. Although the combination of these two ingredients is not very tasty, it has become extremely popular due to its simple preparation.

This combination is also said to be a good aphrodisiac, but nutritionists point out that there is no evidence that this drink has such benefits.

"Coffee and lemon are rich sources of antioxidants. However, there is no significant evidence to suggest that adding lemon to coffee may provide additional health benefits beyond increased antioxidant intake," said nutritionist Crystal Scott.

The idea that these two ingredients in combination have different benefits comes from the fact that drinking black coffee and lemonade without added sugar actually stimulate the intestines.

In addition, coffee contains caffeine that stimulates the nervous system and gives us energy, while lemon is rich in vitamins, so it is often used as a natural remedy, especially for colds and flu.
