Benefits of drinking every morning
Ms. Kanikka Malhotra - nutritionist and diabetes educator (India) said that drinking amla juice every morning can bring some long-term health benefits.
Gooseberry juice significantly boosts immunity due to its high vitamin C content, which helps the body fight infections and diseases.
Regular use helps promote healthier, more radiant skin thanks to its antioxidant properties, which fight free radicals and reduce signs of aging.
Amla juice can boost energy levels by improving metabolism and aiding in better nutrient absorption, providing natural and sustained energy throughout the day.
Benefits of drinking gooseberry juice on an empty stomach
Ms. Malhotra highlights the potential benefits of adding amla juice to your daily morning routine, including:
Rich in Vitamin C: Gooseberries are a rich source of vitamin C, an important antioxidant that supports immunity and fights free radical damage in the body. Taking it on an empty stomach can help with better absorption due to less competition from other foods in the digestive tract.
Aids digestion: Gooseberries have properties that stimulate digestive enzymes. This can aid digestion, potentially reducing constipation and bloating.
Blood sugar management: Some studies show that drinking gooseberry juice on an empty stomach is beneficial for blood sugar control.
Skin health: Vitamin C in gooseberries contributes to collagen production, which promotes skin elasticity and has the potential to reduce wrinkles. Gooseberry juice can help brighten and strengthen the skin.
Note
Ms. Malhotra notes that gooseberry juice is beneficial for health, thanks to its nutritional components such as vitamin C, fiber and antioxidant compounds. However, when drinking it on an empty stomach, you need to consider the following issues:
Effects on the stomach: Although gooseberry juice has many benefits, for people with sensitive or easily irritated stomachs, drinking it on an empty stomach can cause discomfort, stomach pain or irritation of the stomach lining due to its mild acidity.
Boosts Immunity: If you don't have stomach problems, drinking gooseberry juice in the morning on an empty stomach can help provide vitamin C, which helps boost your immune system and cleanse your body.
Drinking too much affects blood sugar: If you are monitoring your blood sugar levels, be aware that gooseberry juice can increase your blood sugar levels if you drink too much. As with other fruit juices, drink in moderation.
Dehydration: Gooseberries have diuretic properties, and daily consumption can lead to dehydration, so make sure you stay hydrated throughout the day.
