Who among us has not heard about the recipe for water and lemon for weight loss, but did you know its disadvantages? :
Disadvantages of drinking plenty of water and lemon:
Erosion of tooth enamel:
As the consumption of acidic foods and drinks in abundance causes erosion of the tooth enamel, which weakens it and makes it more sensitive to hot and cold foods.
Heartburn
Drinking a large amount of water and lemon may lead to heartburn or may increase it in case of infection.
Heartburn occurs when the esophageal sphincter muscle between the esophagus and stomach is not working properly, which leads to acid returning from your stomach toward the esophagus in reverse, causing heartburn, or what is regarded as gastroesophageal reflux.
Increased Risk Of Dehydration
In rare cases, water and lemon may have a diuretic effect. Lemon is high in vitamin C, which is known for its diuretic properties, which means that it increases urine production in the kidneys and helps the body get rid of excess fluid and sodium more quickly
Treating That:
If you feel dehydrated after drinking water and lemon, you should reduce it and try to compensate by drinking water alone.
