Tea with lemon is useful during a diet, as well as for colds due to its general strengthening properties.
The drink helps the body get the vitamin C it needs.
It is important to know how to properly drink hot tea with lemon to get the maximum benefit.
It would seem that everyone knows how to brew tea with lemon.
It is preferable to drink such a drink during colds and acute respiratory viral infections.
However, if the drink is prepared incorrectly, it can destroy its main value – a large amount of vitamin C.
Experts recommend not to throw lemon slices into hot tea. To preserve the useful vitamin, it is better to consume citrus slices fresh.
You can eat lemon just like that, washed down with warm tea.
This way you will get almost all the vitamin C that is contained in lemon.
100 g of lemon contains about 40 g of vitamin C. However, if the same amount of lemon is in hot liquid for about 5 minutes, this amount decreases to 1.31 g.
One slice of lemon contains up to 2-3 milligrams of vitamin.
This small single dose will not cause harm and will benefit the entire body.
