1 Drinking it right before a meal
You dont want to consume lemon water before you eat.
When citric acid goes into the body, it gets burned up and it turns into an alkaline substance.
Doing this can inhibit digestion.
Consume lemon water for at least a half hour or an hour before you eat anything.
It could potentially break down some of the enamel on your teeth.
The ph of lemon juice is 2 to 3, similar to hydrochloric acid.
When you consume it, it will burn in your stomach.
Drinking lemon can aggravate this pH and make it worse.
