No Added Sugar Fresh Lemonade Made With Stevia

Cutting the Sugar but Keeping The Flavor of Fresh Lemonade
lemons a total super food that keep your Ph in balance

Who doesn't like a nice tall glass of lemonade on a hot Summer day or any day for that matter. Lemons are super rich in vitamin C as well as calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium and zinc. Aside from a wealth of vitamins and minerals, lemons can also improve acid alkali pH balance in our system which can protect us against infection and cancer. The only problem is the Lemonade contains about six heaping tablespoons of white sugar per serving. That pretty much negates all the awesome benefits plus it results in our kids running around like a bunch of banshees high on sugar. I am going to show you how to make lemonade without all the added sugar but retaining all the benefits that lemons have to offer. Check it out.

Have an excellent day.
