Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ for Citric Acid pH Concentration Test Strips

Drinking acid, depending on the type, concentration, and quantity, can be extremely dangerous. Mild acids like citric acid found in fruits like lemons are generally safe to ingest in small amounts. They can cause discomfort if taken but are unlikely to cause significant harm unless one has a pre-existing condition like acid reflux or ulcers.
