[Everything doTERRA] Re: Lemon oil in water

I read this post this morning and immediately messaged a friend of mine who happens to love this sort of research and always has PH paper on hand, AND who I happen to have just given a lemon oil sample to. She tested it and said that the Ph level of her water was the same with and without the lemon oil, but when using lemon juice it was much higher acid content.

I mentioned on a list that I drink lemon oil in water and that I feel that it is keeping kidney stones away. I got this reply from a dental hygienist (in parenthesis). Please help me with an answer to her. I know many of you drink lemon oil too. I'm not worried about variations in the pH of lemon oil, but I need to know what to tell her about it not having a detrimental effect on my tooth enamel.

 

 

TIA,

"One thing to think of is the PH of lemon oil. I would guess the product may change from different manufacturers. Using a straw and rinsing with water afterwards may help preserve the enamel of teeth.

There is no way to be confident about lemon oil PH without getting a PH strip and dipping it (which I think is a great idea). I cannot find a scientific source on the web regarding lemon oil ph, just commercial sites.

Anyone with children contemplating this should speak to their dentist first as hpth children may have non optimal mineralization of enamel.
