Health advice
This simple juice has many impressive health benefits but may cause gastrointestinal distress and a heightened risk of kidney problems. It is better to consult a doctor before adding this juice to your diet:
Stomach Issues: While many people praise calamansi juice for its detoxifying and anti-inflammatory properties, it is still an astringent and a potentially irritating substance for the stomach. If you have a sensitive gut, be sure to moderate your intake of calamansi juice to prevent acid reflux, stomach problems, and cramping.
Kidney Health: With a high level of vitamin C and the ability to stimulate urination, this fruit juice may detoxify the body. However, for people with kidney issues, diuretics can lead to numerous complications and even a worsening of your condition.
