Hi Melly:
While taking adequate minerals is a very important part of health, I strongly
disagree with that blanket statement, which is backed by opinion and not real
science. In fact, the truth is that the alkalzing minerals IN lemon are
primarily calcium, magnesium, and potassium. It actually stimulates the
production of calcium carbonate in the body. I'm aware that some people out
there are trying to teach this "leaching" idea, but it is not backed in common
sense or science, and is obviously being taught by individuals with very little
background in the scientific approach to biochemistry.
For example, I actually have cellular and metabolic work done to monitor my
electrolyte and mineral balance. I'm one of the few people who test at near
perfect mineral balance levels. No mineral supplementation needed; only a
reasonably healthy diet is required.
Kind Regards,
Jason

For those drinking lemon juice to alkalize i hope you realize that for
lemon to convert your ph, it leaches on your minerals like calcium and
magnesium, so it would be best to take mineral supplement too.
