Lemon Juice

[Guest guest]

Hello.

I've been having a hard time getting my HCl supplements lately, so

I've decided to start using the juice of one lemon with each meal to

help aid digestion (including helping to stimulate my gall bladder).

Is the sugar that is included in the lemon OK?

Am I right in thinking there is about 5 grams of sugar in the juice of

one lemon?

I would be taking the juice of one small lemon with every meal, which

is 3 per day. I'll be feeding candida with this, right? My lemons are

very small, about the size of a lime really. It nets about a

tablespoon of juice.

Would I just be better off without this?

I think vinegar is my only other option, but I know that this is not

an acceptable substitution since there is the potential for aflatoxin

(since the cider is initially fermented with yeast before is undergoes

bacterial fermentation to make the vinegar). I guess I've been

wondering which is the lesser of two evils -- sugar from the lemons or

aflatoxin/vinegar?

I know that the acid in the lemons is great for detoxification, from

what I've read. So if someone can assist me determine if the benefits

outweigh the negatives, I'd really appreciate it, because I'd rather

not thrash this around in my brain for much longer.

Thanks everyone!
