As someone who recently had a kidney stone, my doctor recommended that I drink half a cup of lemon juice every day (as part of a kidney stone prevention diet). I have been making lemonade every day, but none of the artificial sweeteners taste good, so I have been using sugar. I'm curious how well this miracle berry would work if it was used to sweeten lemonade? I'm also curious about the health risks?

Very interesting. Sorry to hear about that. What is very interesting about lemon juice is that even though it is acidic, when your body processes it it becomes basic. Lemon juice is literally the ideal example. Check out all my demos starting at #2. You can eat the lemons straight up and they taste like the best lemonade you've ever had. No health risks besides maybe consuming too much acid in one sitting (but seems like that is doctor's orders for you). Coca Cola ran a study in November 2019 and showed no long term side effects neither to your taste buds nor to your body. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0278691519305526#:~:text=Miraculin%20was%20shown%20to%20be,an%20in%20vitro%20digestibility%20assay.&text=Overall%2C%20the%20results%20of%20this,associated%20with%20any%20safety%20concerns https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S02786....

  Coke is quite bad for your teeth, and lemons especially so.

    I agree. There are milder examples though that you eat anyways such as coffee, straw/blue/raspberries, greek yogurt, and dark chocolate. Miracle fruit works with all these foods too, not just extremely sour ones. In fact, the flavor enhancing is most prominent in these mildly acidic foods.

I'd love to chat. Can you shoot me an email? daniel.getman@miracle-nutrition.com This seems like an ideal use case I never knew about.

I can not thank you enough for mentioning this. I think these are the exact early adopters I needed. I spoke with a physician at Duke and indeed there seems to be a dire pain point: you either drink very unpleasant sour lemonade, eat a bunch of sugar which has caloric and dental implications, or eat artificial sweeteners which taste bad. FYI I'm doing a domain transfer so the website is currently down. I can email you when it is back up in the case you have not purchased yet.
