Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, but fresh-squeezed is best for maximum vitamin C and no added sugars. If using store-bought, choose 100% juice with no added sugar and reduce the amount slightly (use 3 oz instead of 4 oz).

Absolutely! Fresh citrus juice is packed with vitamin C, which supports immune function. Combined with proper hydration from electrolytes, it's an excellent choice during cold season or when feeling run down.

Morning for a vitamin C boost, post-workout for recovery and hydration, or anytime you need refreshing energy. The natural sugars from fruit provide quick energy without a crash.

If you have a sensitive stomach, reduce the lemon juice or skip it entirely. You can also drink this with food rather than on an empty stomach. The electrolytes help balance the acidity.
