18 Fascinating Benefits of Lemon

2. Boosts the Mood

Another big benefit of lemon is that it can help to give you a boost in mood and pick-me-up. Once again, this is actually due to the very impressive benefits of vitamin C. As well as being a potent immune-system booster, vitamin C is also highly effective when it comes to increasing the production of the neurotransmitter ‘serotonin’. This is the ‘happiness hormone’ and helps to make us feel better and more energetic. It’s even been shown to act as a natural pain killer!

At the same time, the small amount of natural sugar that comes from having some lemon in your water means you’ll also avoid the dip in glucose that can lead to an increase in cortisol – i.e. the stress hormone.
This is actually why a lot of people will burn lemon oil. The fumes help them to feel happier and more optimistic because they are raising those good hormones!
