Lemon adds a nice, citrusy flavor to water — and beyond the taste, you may have heard of people drinking the combination for satiety or to encourage weight loss. But you may be surprised at the latest beverage lemon is making an appearance in: coffee.
There's something of a modern legend around adding lemon to your coffee. Proponents say that the combination will help you burn fat. Not only that, but some say that it's nutritious and can help fight everything from diarrhea to headaches.
When the trend went viral on social media, many swore that a touch of lemon in their coffee has helped them shed some pounds — including one TikTok user, who claimed to lose eight pounds in two weeks.
Those claims see a bit, well, inflated, so we talked to two dietitians to separate the health from the hype.
Find out if coffee and lemon is really a magical weight-loss potion.
