Lovely Lemon Water

Ladies- let me level with you right now.  We often get UTIs. It hurts.  Then you have to go through the process of downing gallons of cranberry juice, going on antibiotics, or taking those pills that turn your pee orange and stain all of your underwear.

Now let me tell you something that works better than cranberry juice and faster than antibiotics- lemon essential oil water.

I personally get UTIs, bladder infections, and kidney infections frequently due to medications I take.  I used to have to drink straight, non-concentrated cranberry juice constantly (trust me, this stuff is awful, and I enjoy cranberry juice.)  Well, once I got my premium starter kit I did some research and found that lemon essential oil is great for treating and preventing UTIs.  Not a week later did I start exhibiting symptoms and I decided to test it.

I filled up my glass water bottle (lemon essential oil, and all other citrus essential oils cannot go in plastic bottles as they will pull chemicals out of the plastic), added two drops of lemon and then I started drinking.  Within 24 hours all symptoms disappeared completely.  

Lemon is also a key ingredient in the Weight Loss Trio because it works as a diuretic and helps prevent and ease bloating. 

Finally, it just tastes good! So get your lemon water on.

Once again, it is incredibly important if you are going to take oils internally to only take therapeutic grade essential oils.  Make sure you get them from a seller that can be trusted (not Amazon!).  This is why I choose Young Living.  All of their oils are monitored from the time they are grown until packaged and tested by both YL and an outside company.  Then they are shipped directly to the customer.  Health food store oils may be great to smell but you don't know if they are adulterated.  The FDA does not regulate oils so ANYTHING can be in them.  If you want to purchase oils you can get them here or find more information about oils here.
