Today's tip, 12/4...- Lemon water. Lemon is a natural appetite suppressant. Bring a glass of lemon water with you in the car on the way to the Christmas party. Get a glass of lemon water as soon as you arrive at the party. Keep drinking lemon water all evening. It will suppress your appetite making it easier to avoid the "table-of- yummies"! If you are drinking lemon water, you are drinking less alcohol. Less alcohol means less sugar calories and less of its' appetite enhancing effects (a.k.a. "The Munchies") . Lemon water is also touted to have other benefits such as improved digestion and absorption of important nutrients. Lemon water helps to alkalinize our bodies which offsets the unhealthy acidic environment created by all the crappy foods we eat. By alkalinizing our system, we are less susceptible to infections and can better fight off the ones we get(colds, flu, etc)
Tis the Season to....
Eat Like Mark
