I drink lemonade regularly (I make my own), but to prevent heartburn, as lemon turns into a base in your stomach and is very helpful with heartburn. Now knowing that it is also good for kidney stone prevention just puts the cherry on top!

- DennisP 4y agoCan you link a study showing that magnesium citrate pills block the progression of kidney stones? If not, I'll stick with lemonade, which does have such a study. I don't need to put sugar in it.
- arcanemachiner 4y ago> lemon turns into a base in your stomach This doesn't make any sense to me. How can two acids combine to create a base?
- dawnerd 4y agoThinking the same. Lemonade gives me severe heartburn. Hurts just thinking about what a glass would do.
