    Another reason lemon juice works is because it helps keep the blood at an alkaline pH. And acidic body is more susceptible to illnesses and skin conditions

    Add stevia to make a sweet glass of lemonade with NO sugar. Guess the only calories would come from the lemon juice.

    Lemon is a great detoxifier. I also use lemon peels on my arms (not the face) for whitening effects.

    Hot lemon water in the morning (half a lemon dropped into boiling water and drunk like tea) is an invigorating way to start the day, & fantastic for cleansing the digestive system. :)
