Turns Out Your Grandmother’s Weird Morning Habit Was Actually Brilliant

This video reports how familiar morning routines are being validated by recent health research and why that alignment matters for everyday well-being. A longevity researcher at NYU Langone told Today that starting each day with one glass of water supports healthy aging and digestion. The Cleveland Clinic adds that vitamin C in lemon water serves as an antioxidant, and a 2024 study links daily apple cider vinegar to modest weight loss and improved blood sugar in young adults.
