Lemons



Lemons are very versatile, you can put them in your water, add them to guacamole, squeeze them on fish or finish a salad with them. Are you aware that they have many health benefits as well?


1. Lemons are loaded with vitamin C.


2. Lemons promote hydration when added to water, it encourages you to drink more water. Adds flavour without adding sugar, artificial flavourings or sweetener to your diet.


3. If you drink warm lemon water first thing in the morning it helps detoxify your body.

Ways that I use Lemons:


1. Squeeze half a lemon in my water throughout the day, or warm water in the morning.


2. Lemon and Dill Salmon - Squeeze Lemon over the uncooked salmon pieces, sprinkle

fresh dill and cook for approximately 10 minutes on 400 degrees.


3. Make Guacamole - Mash up an avocado, add some lemon and garlic and mix together. Great for chips, vegetables, and on any kind of sandwiches.


4. Salad Dressing - Mix Lemon with Olive Oil and drizzle over a sweet salad (spinach with berries is my favourite).


5. When I am out I tend to put Doterra Lemon Essential Oil in my water (people might look at me weird if I start pulling out a lemon everywhere I go). Message us if you have questions / want to know how to order for wholesale prices or order yours today at http://mydoterra.com/johannedouma
