Most of the damage will be done to your teeth, as the acidity erodes the enamel on your teeth.

I love lemons! I used to live in Cali and my neighbor across the street had a lemon tree. We used to eat lemons like they were apples when we were kids. Now I am 26 and dont. Occasionally do I have lemon. Like at a restaurant when they give you a lemon in water. I love putting salt on lemons and just sucking it and eating it all up. I also love salt. But dont worry. I go to the doctor on a regular basis and my blood pressure is just right! Im awesome.

The main concern is in regards to it eroding the enamel on your teeth. Lemon acts as a purifier in your blood and too much could cause problems I guess. But, we would be talking about something like someone who existed on a diet of only lemons or consumed great quantities of them.

It probably wont damage your liver, but it can be very bad for your teeth. The acid eats away at you tooth enamel and they can (in severe cases) even fall out! Citrus is good for you, but just in moderation.

you would have to eat alot of lemons to damage your organs...what you heard is true..it can also lower your levels of potassium and cause your heart to stop...but like i said you would have to eat alot for that to happen...it's kinda like if you drink too much water it can kill you...too much of anything if bad for your body..
