Side Effects of Drinking Lemon with Water


Tooth Erosion Consuming too many acidic foods or beverages. Such as many glasses of lemon water per day. Causes your teeth to have a constant amount of acid washing over them. This will erode tooth enamel and make your teeth extra sensitive to hot or cold foods. To protect your teeth, drink acidic beverages through a straw. If you’re already experiencing tooth erosion, consult a dentist who can recommend treatments such as bonding or sealers.


Heartburn Lemon water can trigger heartburn or worsen it if you’ve been experiencing this condition. While lemon water provides an alkaline effect on the body. It is still acidic and can therefore contribute to acid reflux.


Urination and Dehydration Lemons are high in vitamin C, which is a natural diuretic. What this means is that it increases the production of urine. So that sodium and excess fluid will be eliminated from the body. Although this is beneficial, you may want to reduce your lemon water consumption especially when you start feeling dehydrated after drinking.


Upset Stomach The lemon juice can upset your stomach because it retains its acidity in the further digestion. In some cases, the acidity is helpful for digesting food, but an excessive amount can irritate the mucous membrane and cause stomach pain and heartburn. To provide this negative effect, start with a small amount of lemon juice diluted with some water.


Gallbladder and Kidney Problems Lemon and lime peels are rich in oxalates, substances found in animals, plants and human beings. When these oxalates are too concentrated in the body fluids, they crystallize, causing many health problems. For this reason, people with gallbladder and kidney problems should avoid the lime and lemon peels. According to some laboratory studies, the oxalates can obstruct the absorption of calcium from the body.
