It is recommended that honey and lemon juice be taken early morning which is beneficial to health in more than anyway. My question is can a diabetic patient can take this?

Yes you can have lemon water but without honey because you are a diabetic patient.

Mr. Sitapati lybrate-user, There are a lot of benefits claimed about honey and lemon juice. It is very difficult to scientifically substantiate all those. Basically lemon juice has a fair amount of vitamin C, plus honey is basically similar to sugar, with some antioxidant properties. If one wants this can be had. In case of a diabetic person quantity honey has to be very limited because it is just sugar. Thanks.
