This Morning’s Trending Coffee Hack: Can a Squeeze of Lemon Actually Torch Belly Fat? A Doctor Spills the Truth!
Side effects of drinking lemon coffee
Coffee and lemon are both low-calorie, minimally processed foods, so it’s easy to assume there’s no harm in trying this trend. However, there are a few potential downsides to consider.
Digestive upset
“Drinking this combination on an empty stomach can be rough for some people,” Dr. Dasgupta says. “Both coffee and lemon are acidic, and that can lead to heartburn, acid reflux or just an upset stomach—especially if you’re prone to those kinds of issues.”
Tooth damage
“Lemon coffee might be trendy, but it is not tooth-friendly!” says Sandip Sachar, DDS, a NYC dentist and board member at Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine. “Combining these two acidic substances raises some serious concerns about tooth enamel erosion, increased tooth sensitivity and acidic overload in the mouth.”
