Duncan you are just plain wrong about lemons not being alkalising:

Lemon water is most definitely alkalizing to the body. I know this might seem

confusing at first but my short video with Dr Young trained, alkaline expert

nutritionist Gareth will explain how lemons are indeed an alkaline food

(click here for a full list of alkaline foods):

Note: I am not saying that lemons are alkaline, I am saying that lemons are

alkalising!

See the distinction here? And by the way, this applies to all foods, not just

lemons & limes. The most important thing to note is not what the pH of the food

is in it's natural state – rather the EFFECT THE FOOD HAS ON THE BODY. " end

Duncan, your response below sounds like a lab experiment and has little to do

with digestion.

In lemon juice the citric acid is carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, thus burns away

leaving very little mineral ash. Another source of carbon in the juice are

sugars. Carbohydrates are often referred to as net-acidic, acidifiers to the

body, because they contain so much carbon. In the blood, waste carbon is in the

form of carbonic acid, which is exhaled as carbon dioxide, costing you two

molecules of alkaline oxygen per molecule of carbon exhaled.

low-mineral but high-carbon, not a good choice for alkalizing.

I've made the point very clearly that juice does not contain much mineral

compared to solids. You only had to look, but since you're quoting Dr.

Young-trained individuals now, I'll tell you that Young's is the website I saw a

couple years ago that said the stomach and intestines are supposed to be

alkaline of all things! I rest my case.

all good,

Duncan

Uh yea, and you're the guy who still thinks that SPF is an ingredient - so

you'll forgive me if your point isn't well taken without your providing any

credible references. And if you want to delve into the past I can recall a

number of additional discussion in which your declarations (regarding coconut

oil and coconut water to name just two) were proven to be equally incredible.

And Dr. Young is not the ONLY one who says that lemon juice is alkalising. You

said I should do a google and I did. Did you?
