        How many times have you come back and felt terribly tired, feeling like your head is going to explode? Sounds familiar, right? Well, there are several ways to reduce the frequency of headaches, and those are: eating balanced diet through the day, making sure your body is well hydrated (保持身体水分);getting some exercise to remove the negative energy, like helping yourself with a short massage (按摩)on your head. However, preparing an easy recipe will instantly put a smile on your face after your workday.

        You will need these simple ingredients (配料)to prepare the magical drink which will stop your headache: Lemon juice; 2 teaspoons of salt (preferably high quality salt); 1 cup of water.

        Directions:

        Squeeze 2 lemons. Pour the lemon juice into a cup and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Mix the two ingredients. Add a cup of water to the content. Drink the mixture quickly.

        How will this drink work and what are the benefits of its ingredients?

        Salt: Here is what salt does for your body: regulates your blood sugar, balances the sugar levels; benefits nerve cells for communication and information processing; obtains acidity from your body's cells, especially brain cells; works as a strong anti-stress element for the body; adds energy in your body's cells.

        Lemon Juice: This excellent juice, full of vitamin C and anti-poisons, will release all poisonous substances from your body and give you a sense of lightness. Here's how the lemon will help you ease your headache and maintain well-being to your whole body: balances the pH levels in your body; protects your immune system; nourishes your brain and nerve cells; reduces inflammation (炎症)in your whole body (the headache is a type of inflammation, so the lemon juice fights against it).
