Medicinal value of lemonade
First, drinking lemonade can also prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases. Lemonade can alleviate the role of calcium ions in promoting blood coagulation, and can prevent and assist in the treatment of hypertension and myocardial infarction.
Second, lemon water contains a lot of citrate, which can inhibit the crystallization of calcium salt, thus preventing the formation of kidney calculi, and even reducing the number of stones in some patients with chronic kidney calculi. The research results published at the annual meeting of the American Urological Society also show that drinking lemon juice can increase the level of citrate in urine, and citrate can prevent minerals in urine from forming crystals in the kidneys, that is, kidney calculi.
Third, lemon is rich in vitamin C, which has many functions, such as antibacterial, improving immunity and assisting the formation of collagen. Drinking lemonade regularly can supplement vitamin C. Drinking 500 to 1000 ml of lemonade every day when you have a cold can reduce your runny nose and let the cold spread rapidly. At the beginning of a cold, you may wish to wash it with lemon and honey, which can relieve sore throat and reduce discomfort such as dry throat.
Fourth, in addition to anti-bacteria and improving immunity, it also has the effects of appetizing, promoting digestion, quenching thirst and relieving summer heat. What is even less well known is that lemon can also expectorate, and the expectorant effect is stronger than that of oranges and citrus. Add warm water and salt to lemon juice, drink it and cough up the thick phlegm accumulated in your throat.
Conclusion: A glass of lemonade after fitness exercise can relieve fatigue.
Suggestion: If possible, drink some protein powder or eat 2 egg whites, which is more conducive to physical recovery.
