A Cypriot once told me that Zirvania had many medicinal benefits. He brought me a bottle to try & my impression was if you could drink this you would survive almost everything

How can you possibly trust the "information" offered in a website that tells you just about how to cure any problem that you may or may not have?

The article had citations to back up the claims. Why don't you try reading them before getting all pompous.

Here's an example.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11412050/

That's from a government site.

If so many people drink lemon water, without seeing this video, it strikes me that it could either be, that it just tastes pleasant, or that basic instinct is telling you to drink it, who knows. Whatever, I always feel more refreshed after drinking it.
Back the claims up with medical test data, simple, drinking lemon water will not lower anyones cholestoral or liver fat , fact , but please feel free to show us some data supporting it, as i said i drink cold tonic water with fresh lemon, it refreshes me, that's all.

Come on Dominic , what's with the pompous bit?, everyone knows eating fruit and vegetables is good for you, but the video we are discussing was making claims that drinking lemon water will lower cholesterol and liver fat ,

Hang on. You asked where all the data was. I produced an article choc full of citations from Scientific studies on Government sites, and you haven't even bothered to look at them?

You didn't read them very well.

Plant compounds found in lemons — namely hesperidin and diosmin — have also been found to lower cholesterol (7Trusted Source, 8Trusted Source, 9).

This made me laugh out loud - love it



There is an “old wives tale” that a warm glass of water and lemon juice is good for the system helps you loose weight !!! I’d drank first thing in the morning

Back to the topic: I always produce ice cubes from lemon juice in times when plenty fruits are on my trees to use them in high summer, when there are no lemons around. The imported ones from other continents taste very different and are expensive then...

The lemons here in the UK are awful, but even so, I still drink lemon juice first thing.

You can't beat a lemon straight off the tree in Cyprus. There used to be a large lemon tree in Polis, on open scrub land, my OH and I used to pick them regularly.

30 years ago I did organic farming near Latchi and had beside 100 Mineola Fruit trees also some lemon trees which fruits tasted ever so good...
I also tried the Verdelli process where one can produce lemons ready in high summer to harvest when you stop watering the tree for 4 weeks in July.
The next year I had fruits early August when nobody had any....
