water with lemon

[WarriorPL]

Are there any benefits to drinking water with lemon in it? Might sound like a dumb question, but i was curious.

a lot of restaurants use lemon to neutralize the chlorine in tap water to make it taste better. I dont know if it's of any other use besides that?

I heard from someone (or read it somewhere?) that lemon is a natural diuretic. Don't know if it is true, but if so, the lemon, combined with lotsa water, can help keep water retention down.

It also is a nice change for your tastebuds when you drink SO much water.

yes it has slight diuretic qualities

lemon fights the acidity from sugar (lemon is alkaline in your blood)

Can you explain what you mean? Do we need to fight acidity?
