The recipe for parsley water has been known for over a thousand years, but it is rarely talked about even though it has a number of positive effects.
To prepare parsley water, first boil a liter of water and let it cool. Then add a finely chopped bunch of parsley, the juice of one lemon, and optionally a spoonful of honey. Mix everything together and let it sit in a dark and cool place.
Drink it every time before a meal except for breakfast. Parsley is a strong diuretic, so it is important to drink enough water throughout the day. Let your body cleanse itself in the morning, and assist it throughout the day with parsley water.
1. By drinking parsley water, you will quickly and visibly lose weight. This is due to the decrease in water retention, but if you replace the lost liquid with fresh water, it will have the effect of cleansing your body from the inside. Along with excess water, toxins, fats, and other impurities will be eliminated as well.
2. Patients with liver problems often drink parsley water. This beverage stimulates and eases liver function. Due to its cleansing properties and improved digestion, your overall well-being will be enhanced.
3. In addition to the liver, kidneys will also benefit from parsley water. Some claim that after 10 days of drinking at least one liter a day, you may get rid of kidney stones. Of course, proceed with caution. Parsley water is particularly potent if consumed on an empty stomach with a splash of lemon juice.
