I love lemons/Limes, So much that I can drink it by the cut full no water just raw lemon juice. Is that bad for you? I dont do it daily more like once every other week. and If I did do it daily and drank water to dilute it would it still be bad?
1. I dont use it as mouth wash so no teeth answers please.
Answer away.

They are very high in Vitamin C - higher than oranges or any other food. Also very high in citric acid which can upset your stomach in high quantities but it doesn't sound like you're drinkning much...enjoy

Lemons and limes are also fairly high in fructose, a natural, simple sugar, so I'd cut it with water, but drink a little more, like 1/2 cup w/ water once a week.

i visit could pass with limes, for some motives. one million. they are commonly extra value-effective 2. They flavor better in mixed beverages 3. you additionally could make key lime pie, that's scrumptious, yet no longer a lemon pie.. thats gross.. 4. All those kitchen cleaners have lemon in them, or lemon scented.. no thank you.. provide me limes please :-)

Highest in Vitamin C as well as Zinc and many Antioxidants!
Only one problem I have personally noticed, mouth sores on the roof of my mouth, due to the acids. But there still so damn YUMMY!

i heard if u eat half a lemon after every meal u will lose heaps of weight because all the acid eats away at the sugar and fat in the food....

Southerners consume large quantities of lemonade all summer long. As long as you dilute it and it's not killing your stomach there is nothing to worry about.
