What role does lemon play? The citrus fruit adds flavor, slightly stimulates salivation and gastric secretion, but it has no detoxifying properties. “It provides vitamin C, organic acids, and a little potassium, but it doesn’t dissolve fat, magically alkalize the body, or eliminate toxins,” the expert points out.

We can therefore state, without fear of contradiction, that the internal shower is simply another “current fad.” It’s not a miracle drink: it’s simply water with fiber and vitamin C. “If a person drinks it and it helps them consume more fluids and fiber, great. But it can’t be a shortcut to ‘cleanse the intestines’ after overeating.”
