    Having lemons/lemon juice can help lower your blood sugar faster if you are diabetic. Since blood sugars and metabolism are all linked, I guess in theory, lemon juice in water would help your metabolism.

    Don't know, but it's not great for your teeth...but then again I have shocking teeth, and an ok metabolism! Balsams vinegar is also bad for wearing down enamel.

    Well I am going to start this today - since I have a loaded lemon tree! Arcadia, I believe it is only really damaging to tooth enamel if it's left in your mouth for any length of time, so diluted juice with water, followed by a rinse with plain water should be fine.

    Ive started doing this in the morning too but with half a lemon. You can drink from a straw to protect your teeth more I guess? But I always have something else to drink afterwards.
