A member asked:

6 weeks pregnant. is it ok to continue to drink warm lemon juice with one full lemon in it every day? heard detox benefits may not be good for baby

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Its OK: Drinking warm lemon juice would be fine. It can help you absorb iron and may also help with morning sickness. Adding a little ginger will also help with morning sickness. Its really tasty with a tiny bit of honey.
