Uses:

• Water is just plain good for us, but it mainly helps us flush nasty toxins through our system which makes it easier for our organs like the liver and kidney to do their jobs! 

• Mint leaves add a refreshing flavor to your drink and also helps you digest more effectively. It also helps relax cramped up stomach muscles.

• Lemon/Lime helps stimulate and regulate the digestive track. This helps when you have a stomach ache!

• Watermelon/Cucumber helps flush out toxins, it helps the liver and kidneys filter and get rid of ammonia which is damaging to cells. 


Making these is so easy! I like bringing these drinks to school and soccer just for a little extra to my water. And you can add whatever fruits you want: pineapple, blueberries, oranges, pomegranate, etc. It's fun to experiment and see what you can make.  Detox waters also help you burn fat depending on what ingredients you using...  Here's another website with even more recipes for you to try: 20 Delicious Detox Waters to Cleanse Your Body and Burn Fat
