Drinking lime water improves digestion. Limes are acidic and they help saliva break down food for better digestion. Additionally, flavonoids in limes stimulate secretion of digestive juices.
Instead of lime try other citrus fruits – grapefruit and lemon are great alternatives
½ tsp stevia or xylitol to taste
Juice of ½ lime
2 slices of cucumber
Slice of lime
4 mint leaves
Crushed ice
200ml Sparkling water or cucumber flavoured sparkling water
