I am alive, in my belief, because I drank lemon water for the last six years. I was dying from Cirrhosis of the liver. Doctors looked me in the eye and told me I was dying. I was put on a liver transplant list. I quit drinking alcohol and started drinking lemon water, not because I knew the benefits but because the tartness replaced the wine I quit drinking. Here it is 2023 and I am healthy. I have been able to come off the transplant list six years later. I believe wholeheartedly it was because of the lemons. I believe I might take it to exstream because I only have two cups of coffee in the morning and then switch to my lemon water. I drink a lot of it during the day and believe me it is strong.

[@louisgiokas2206]

I drink lemon water every day. A good bit. I use an organic bottled pure lemon juice. I only drink water, brewed coffee and brewed tea (with no milk or sweeteners). In fact, I don't use sugar or honey, or any other sweetener, at all. I am pescatarian, but will occasionally eat meat when I am out. Most days I eat vegetarian. I also cut out all wheat and other gluten containing foods. I sometimes eat lentils. I also eat no processed foods. I lost weight (from 200lbs to 155lbs). I didn't track how long it took me. I was not long, though. I do not follow the intermittent fasting, but only eat two meals a day and one snack (usually feta cheese and olives). I don't eat the snack every day. As a result, my blood pressure is down, my joints don't crack and my poops are good. This has lasted about six years now. I am in my late 60s and my body is back to where I was in my late 20s. I did all this before discovering your channel. I like the detailed information you give, and it helps me pick foods that contribute to my well being. Thanks.

[@wfischer4456]

I stopped eating gluten, coffee and sugar, not to lose weight, but I was getting sick, with headaches, eye pain, liver pain and joint pain. No doctor found anything, I did several tests and I ended up discovering that gluten was the cause. The pain went away without eating gluten, I got better... But I also discovered that my B12 and vitamin D levels were very low, I had to study them on the Internet, the doctors didn't say anything about it. If these two levels are low, we are at high risk of serious illnesses.

I recently subscribed to your channel after my wife and I began a high protein, low carb, no sugar diet two months ago. Your point about one healthy lifestyle change -such as drinking water with lemon - leading to another is spot on. Since starting our diet we have lost our craving for sugar, ramped up the frequency of our workouts and increased our craving for dietary knowledge.... thus prompting us to begin watching your videos. Although we were not in poor health to start with as measured by our blood tests, we have each lost about 10 pounds or approximately one pound per week. So we feel better and look better. It surer would be good if the information you share could be the basis of mandatory classes taught to school children, and form the basis of conversations we all have with our physicians. Why is it that never in my life have I had a doctor say to me, "You stepped on our scale and your weight is XX pounds more than the ideal for a man of your body type, height and age. Since body weight is the number one indicator as to whether you are treating your body in a healthy manner, we are going to discuss how you are going to achieve your appropriate weight and stay there before your next annual physical. After this we will determine whether any other health concerns you have require medication." A conversation such as this would actually be health care, instead of symptom treatment. In any event, your presentations are educational, humorous and motivating. Keep up the great work!

YET even Dr. Ekberg will say we might need to take our medications, which means to me that he is catering to those allopathic doctors who make lots of money from pills. Sometimes Ekberg says words that tell me that he might be catering to someone else's ideas. He says our bodies are exceptional machines able to heal themselves. I have read this in many books and learned to heal myself really fast several years ago. He needs to stay committed to these words.

I had 3 separate kidney stone attacks in a 6-month period (each VERY painful). I had changed my diet as recommended by urologist but continued to have attacks. CT scan showed more small stones and one large stone still in the kidney. The last time I went to the urologist, I was seen by the "old" (near retirement) practitioner that told me to put a squirt of lemon juice in my water every time I drank water. Since I travel a lot, carrying liquid lemon juice with me was impractical. I found some lemon crystal packets (available from Amazon) and put a packet of granules in each of my drinks. I did that for 3 months. The week following the third month, I passed 2 small stones. The next week after that, I passed 2 more stones. The third week after, I passed a large stone (all of these were painless passings). I keep lemon crystals with me no matter where I go and will continue to use them for the rest of my life (I am 72).

Love your channel Dr Stan, but as a professional inorganic chemist and chemical crystallographer (I have worked with two Nobel laureates at MIT) I want to clarify that citrate doesn't 'bind oxalates', rather it is an alternative ligand to bind calcium. It helps against build up of kidney stones by lowering the amount of unbound Ca2+ ions, that might otherwise bind to oxalate. Such Ca-oxalate complex could then add to existing Ca-oxalate crystals in the kidney increasing stone size. BTW once stones have precipitated, they will be practically impossible to re-dissolve away, best you can do is slow their growth and lemon water may help with this.

I used to drink gatorade zero (with sucralose) after working out, I knew it wasn't good for me, so I switched it for lemon water with salt, I love the flavor and I think it really helps me to recover but also the salt helps, I do the lemon mostly for the flavor and because it's low carb but if I get any additional benefit I welcome it, although I don't expect it to be a magical elixir.. 😜

[@orowizard1369]

Thanks for another great video Dr. Ekberg. I have lost over 70 pounds in the last year on keto/intermittent fasting that YOU got me started on. My wife has lost over 60 in the same period. I would be careful, I just looked up lemons and the first one I came to said each lemon had 20 total carbs with a net of 10 carbs. I see varying opinions on whether to have less than 20 total carbs or net carbs per day on keto, but, that would limit you to a maximum of 2 lemons per day best case. Edit: forgot to thank Dr. Ekberg.

[@kfgabriele9852]

Excellent point. Those with metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and/or high insulin resistance may need to keep their carbs as low as absolutely possible. In such cases ACV may be a good alternative.

[@pattireznik5547]

I have T2 diabetes and do low carb + I F 18/6. 10 days into lemon water "tonic" first thing and I feel great! You don't need much (1/4 to 1/3 lemon) is plenty to change the PH balance & tune up the liver..

Wonderful presentation. Love the way you explain what happens behind the scenes incase of every type of food. We always have some kind of acid along with our food example in south Indian dishes tamrind is used while in the North Indian ones lemons or tomatoes are used. Drinking lemon water the whole day is good but one has to be careful about ones teeth too due to acidity.

[@metaspherz]

Thanks, doc! I appreciate the advice and the common sense that your channels provide me and many others. It's a breath of fresh air in a foggy miasma of misinformation and bad content on YT! Intermittent fasting is something that I've heard of but never practiced. I've always craved a late-night snack mere hours before sleeping. The snack of choice was typically buttered popcorn or chips with a carbonated sugar-free soda while watching a movie. Sometimes it was milk and cookies or ice cream. I never thought twice about it in my 74 years! That's also why I became 40 pounds overweight and a T2 diabetic with high blood pressure! Six weeks ago, I started a Keto diet. After restricting carbs, I honestly don't find it hard to resist eating four or five hours before I go to sleep. I don't even think about it now as not snacking has become a habit. I admit to cheating once in a while, though, I'm only human. But, the late-nightly craving to eat something is gone.

I like milk mixed with orange soda ... taste like a creamsicle.

Just a comment about potassium. I just recently had a panic attack and it kicked me into atrial fibrillation for the first time in my life. The blood test in the hospital said my potassium was 2.5, so it definitely happens. I also drink an entire lemon every day. I didn't think this was a lot. I like the bite of the lemon juice.

I was having issues with joint pain and nodules on mine fingers swelling and making me feel 90. I started drinking lemon water all day other than 2-3 cups of coffee in the morning and it has helped a lot with my body not being so acidic which then in turn reduced the inflammation in my joints and finger nodules reduced down to almost nothing. I had already eliminated gluten, sugar (for the most part) and many night shade vegetables that I felt were causing joint pain but I still had pain and the nodules but after doing the lemon water my joints and inflammation are much better. You said about how it helps with the gallbladder but what if you don’t have a gallbladder, how would the process go and improve your liver and pancreas?

When the pitcher empties, before I refill it, I take the lemons out and add the fruit in my banana & blueberry smoothies, and slice a new lemon into the pitcher with new water! The best thing about the lemon water is that I enjoy it and prefer it over my former favorite drink, cream soda!
