if you drink it first thing in the morning, it helps to act as a diuretic and promotes bowel movements. This is helpful when you are dieting and the change in your eating habits cause you not to be regular any more.

The mixture of warm water with lemon is to produce a substance called an "alkalizer."
Because of the citric acid in the lemon, evidently, it is supposed to counteract acidic conditions in the body. It is believed that reducing the acidic content and bring the body towards a pH level of 0 will do multiple things (including skin care)
Take these statements for what they're worth. Drinking water is never bad for you and lemons are good for you as well.

Well they say water does wonders for skin. But I have never heard hot water and lemon doing anything. But hey give it a go. I really feel the best thing for your skin is to keep it clean. Wash twice daily!

drinking herbal tea (that's all hot water and lemon is) helps for respiratory and sinus problems. However, I don't think hot water and lemon specifically would do anything special for the skin that water doesn't do...

It is good for your skin to be hydrated, so if having it warm makes you drink more water then yes it is good for you. I do not think it is the lemon that does it however it is the water. If you want more vitamin c then try taking it in tablet form or drinking juice or eating eating fruit.

Some people drink that in the morning before eating breakfast to burn fat. Don't know if it really works!
