Habit 1 starts your day and helps you rid the body of the previous days toxins. Morning elimination is a great sign of detoxification.
Here are some potential ways the body may benefit from the ingredients. Choose the best one that suits you and try to stick to it. Celtic or sea salt can be an addition to any one of them to improve your hydration.
Warm Water:
Warm water can aid in hydration and help improve digestion by stimulating the digestive tract.
Lemon (Rich in Vitamin C and Malic Acid):
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an essential antioxidant that supports the immune system and helps protect cells from oxidative damage.
Malic acid is a natural alpha-hydroxy acid found in certain fruits, including lemons. It may promote skin health and has been used in some skincare products for its exfoliating properties.
Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV, Contains Acetic Acid):
Acetic acid is the main active component of apple cider vinegar.
Some studies suggest that acetic acid may help regulate blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity, potentially beneficial for individuals with diabetes or insulin resistance.

Acetic acid has been shown to have antimicrobial properties, which may help inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria in the digestive system.

It’s important to keep in mind that while these ingredients have some potential health benefits, individual responses can vary, and some people may experience discomfort or adverse reactions when consuming acidic substances like lemon or vinegar.
Which one will you be choosing? you can vary them during the week. Before i forget always drink with a straw as these acids can be harsh on the teeth.
