Lemon water is healthy — but are you drinking it the right way?
Many people make these dangerous mistakes that can damage their health, teeth, and stomach!
Save this guide before your next sip! 👇
1. Drinking Lemon Water on an Empty Stomach with Ulcers
→ Can cause burning, stomach pain, or worsen ulcers.
2. Using Bottled Lemon Juice Instead of Fresh
→ Packed with preservatives and lacks natural nutrients.
3. Not Diluting Enough

4. Drinking It Ice Cold

5. Adding Too Much Sugar
→ Turns your healthy drink into a calorie bomb!
6. Forgetting to Rinse Your Mouth After

8. Drinking Lemon Water Before Bed
→ It can increase urination and disturb sleep.
9. Not Washing the Lemon Skin
→ Pesticides and dirt on the peel can go into your drink.
10. Skipping the Seeds
→ Lemon seeds are bitter and may upset your stomach.
11. Overdoing It Daily
→ Too much lemon can lead to acid reflux, tooth sensitivity, or kidney strain.
12. Forgetting to Add a Straw
