A slice of lemon should be added to a warm, not hot, drink to get the most benefit from it.
Many people love tea with lemon for its taste and invigorating properties.
There are several rules that must be taken into account when using it, said culinary expert Yulia Arkhipova .
Two rules for drinking tea with lemon
Firstly, many tea lovers prefer to add a lemon wedge to their drink, but this may not be the best choice.
When lemon comes into contact with hot boiling water, the vitamins it contains can be destroyed.
Therefore, it is better to put a slice of lemon in a warm rather than a hot drink.
In addition, too hot lemon water can lead to increased acidity in the mouth and destruction of tooth enamel.
Secondly, it is worth remembering that it is better not to add lemon to tea during the evening meal. Lemon drink can cause problems with sleep and eventually lead to insomnia.
If you follow these two simple rules, you can benefit and enjoy the drink.
