It’s Good For You, But Could You Drink It ?

August 19, 2015 by Shellie Wilson 9 Comments

It has so much of the “Good Stuff” in it that it’s recommended we drink it every morning. But seriously? I don’t think I can stand the smell. What about you?

Could you drink lemon juice every morning? I like hot lemon water where it contains a small squeeze of lemon but these sort of quantities? No Way!

I was also told that lemon juice strips the teeth enamel and especially the sensitive toothpaste off my teeth. So after having lemon water I get sensitive teeth.

But lemon juice is not just a cleanser for your body but studies indicate that it helps with so much more including: Weight Loss,  inflammation, alcohol cravings, fibromyalgia, nail care and can even help prevent food poisoning.

Is lemon juice really a natural wonder tonic? Have you used it as a DIY treatment for an ailment? Did it help? Share here.

    I’m using lemon juice to help break up kidney stones. Fingers cross it helps. WORST PAIN EVER!

    It’s a shot. Just knock it back & swallow in one gulp. No sitting on the teeth, no hanging out in the mouth – just one & done. It’s not so hard, really.

    I’ve never had that much at once, but I would drink it quickly and then rinse my teeth off afterwards!

    I grew up with a lemon tree in our front yard and an elderly neighbor would come and get the lemon leaves and make a tea every day. I grew up eating lemons all the time. I swear its why I was never fat or hardly ever sick as a kid because we had to fend for ourselves often and we ate junk with a capital J.

    I’ve used it before kidney stones and it really helped with those. I make sure I keep some in the refrigerator I also shared that info with a male friend and he started drinking some everyday because he had previously ended up at the ER once a month with kidney stone pain. He told me that now when he starts feeling twinges from one starting he starts drinking lemon juice. I just didn’t realize it is supposed to help with the other things you listed.

    You could use a straw and direct it to the back of your mouth to prevent the acid from touching your teeth.

    Yes, I could definitely do this. I have Crohns and after a flare of vomiting, I crave lemon slices with salt on them and I drink pickle juice from the jar with a straw. It’s got something to do with getting the stomach acids replenished.

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
