Yet there is one lifestyle change in particular that we want to share with you today. Morning concoctions!
Let’s be honest. So many people today are confused about what drink they should begin their day with. Should you consume lemon water or herbal tea? Or, is a spice concoction better for you? And if you begin your day with coffee or tea, you need to stop.
So what are some Super Morning Concoctions you can wake up to? Here is a guide to five of our favorite concoctions, each intended for a specific purpose. Over the years, these have worked beautifully for many of our clients. We hope they can do the same for you.

These can range from toxin buildup, bloating, acidity, cancer, skin and hair health issues, inability to lose weight, brain fog, and even cancer.
