The liver can make more enzymes out of fresh lemon juice than any other food element.

I believe it is very high in Vit. C, but it can be hard on the enamel of your teeth! Do so in moderation. Orange juice, unsweetened is just as good in the C department. Other than that, all I know is that it can be mixed with water to encourage you to drink more water....which is definitely good for u, especially in the summer.

It's good for digestion and a good source of vitamin C.
Don't drink it full strength, though.
