Last night I received an email from a woman who wanted to conceive a child or a baby boy. She had heard from her aunt that eating lemons, drinking lemonade, and eating lemon-flavored products (yogurt, pudding, jelly, etc.) would help her conceive a boy. She wanted to know if this advice was true, and if so, would other citrus fruits, such as oranges, apply as well? I will deal with this in the next article.

The reasoning behind the aunt’s advice is that the aunt is assuming that the lemons will alkalize your body. Since being alkaline or having a low PH stimulates the sperm chromosomes that help form males, the aunt assumes that eating plenty of these types of foods will help stimulate and maintain optimal PH.

Many people reading this are probably thinking, “no, that’s wrong. Lemons and all citrus fruits are acidic. That’s why you’re not supposed to get too many of them, and that’s why it can erode tooth enamel.” And, all this is true. On the surface, citrus foods have a high PH. But, lemons are one of those foods that are initially acidic but then become alkaline when further metabolized. (On a side note, this isn’t always going to be true. It only applies when the fruit is picked when it’s ripe. If it’s picked when it’s not ripe or green and then changes once it’s in the grocery store, then the opposite would happen and would actually be digested as acid.) Also, this applies to many other fruits and vegetables. Some examples are things like some apples, mangoes, and peaches.

And, there are many other foods besides these that read as alkaline in your body. This is not just limited to fruits and vegetables. Walnuts are also a good option. But, due to the recent trend of fasting and cleansing, most people are more fruit conscious.

So I guess the short answer to the question is that lemons may be a food that would help the writer to become more alkaline (although I would advise you check if you start reading before you even start this as it might not be necessary). . And it would not be a good idea to consume juice sweetened with sugar or derivatives such as yogurt or pudding. These are processed foods that should be avoided. People sometimes confuse it with douching as well, which is another method of changing the PH. Douching with lemon juice and water would produce a completely different result and is probably not the best idea in this situation.

And douching and food aren’t the only things to consider with conceiving a child. He also wishes to reduce her time. To encourage the men to produce sperm that I talked about earlier, you need to have sex at the end of your ovulation date.
