Not to sound negative but I am just inquiring...how does mucus cause acne? Is it secreted from the skin? How is it related to hormones (if it is at all).
what is it in the lemons that stops mucus.
this sounds a lot like all the new age health remedies that talk about how we live in a toxic world and all these diseases are caused by toxic plaque building up in our bodies.

it pretty much is. apparently the mucous builds up in the system, often inside of the colon (i think?) and traps the sort of foods and toxins that create acne by erupting through the skin. by drinking the lemon water, which has been proven to break up mucous, you can get rid of the stuff that traps the toxins and cause disease. thats sort of a basic run through, get the idea? i think it's sort of related to colon health, but for teenagers that shouldnt be too much of a problem(?) so cutting down on the 'bad' foods and staying well hydrated with lemonwater should work. look for the 'master cleanser' on the internet as well? I believe it's a concotion of warm water, cayenne pepper, fresh squeezed lemon juice, and maple syrup that is meant to travel throughout the system and detox our insides. The juice breaks up the mucous, the syrup slows the mixture so i can work more effectively, and the cayenne pepper speeds up the travelling through the bloodstream. people fast on it i guess. dont think i can list the site which talks about it, but i found it easy enough.

I fast all the time like this and it really does work as long as you can keep your refrigerator loaded with all the right kinds of foods.What happens is I run out of something and am not able to get it and start getting cravings that ultimately FORCE me to eat something I shouldn't be eating simply because what I should have ate wasn't there.The only thing I dislike about fasting is that I have to breathe more often cause since I'm eating less I'm getting less oxygen.It also effects my sex life somewhat too.

My family sucks! My dad called and asked if I wanted any krispy kreme doughnuts, I said no, because today is my first day of fasting, what does he do...bring home 12! I couldve resisted at the site of like 4, but 12!?!? So I ate one, I'm so mad though, I had the perfect schedule, every night this weekend I'm gonna be out, so my parents wouldnt have to know I was fasting, because I dont think they would approve. O well, I'll eat no more today, and still call it my first day of fasting, I'll just drink an extra amount of lemon water to make up for it!

Are potatoes ok (French Fries)?
If lemons really work, will dabbing some lemon juice on my huge cysts get rid of them?

This is really funny. Do you realize that I have been seeing all these posts about putting lemons on your face? So I figured if lemons were good on your face they were even better in your system. For the past 2 days I have been drinking lemon water. Before any of this even came up. Mind you I have been eating what ever I want. I have mild acne and hypoglycemia so I can't let the blood/sugar levels drop in my system.
By the way, I have not been using drops. I have been slicing lemons and cutting them in fours and putting them right into my water.

Hi, I've got this like lemon juice, its called Jif? don't know if this is the correct stuff to use to make lemon water, but its in a little container in the shape of a lemon and it says the container that its natural strength lemon juice. Is this the correct stuff to put into water? oh and another thing how much should i put into water too? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I Just realized I never responded with my results! Ok, well when I did this it was a little while ago. I drank a bunch of lemon water on the first day and didn't eat anything, and around 5 that night I went and sat on the couch and thought to myself, "wow, I am doing really good, I'm not even hungry!". Then about 5 minutes later I got this feeling in my stomach and I was like omg, I'm gonna throw up, so I went over to the sink quickly and threw up a bunch of lemon juice, I think this was my bodys way of telling me, 'eat some food!' I still drink lemon water, but I just drink it with my regular diet, in which I avoid mucous causing foods as much as possible, but not so much that I feel deprived of them and unhappy! I think it deffinately has helped my skin.
