As acids are water soluable the kidneys are capable of handling large amounts of it without too much ill effects at all. The most notable effect is that you will notice that your urine takes on a distinctive colour.

Why is too much citric acid produced in the human body?

I'm not a doctor, and i don't have any certificates or whatever, but your body doesn't produce citric acid, and its citric acid content comes solely from the rutaceae fruits which you consume (oranges, grapes, berries, tangerines, mandarin's, grapefruit, limes, lemons, lemonade's, kiwi fruits etc). you would just be eating too much citrus fruits.

What does citric acid do to your body?

Citric acid is a naturally occurring acid found in citrus fruits. It can help improve digestion by increasing acidity in the stomach, aiding in the breakdown of food. However, consuming too much citric acid can lead to stomach irritation and erosion of tooth enamel. It is generally safe in moderate amounts when consumed as part of a balanced diet.


Is citric acid a liquid?

It is a solid. See the discussion page for further info. (It does not matter that it is dispersed, it still maintains its fundamental state of matter.) Citric acid (anhydrous) is a solid at temperatures below 153C (307F). Citric acid becomes liquid at 153C. At some temperature well above that, pure citric acid may enter vapor phase, but its likely the energetic state of atoms in the molecule at this temperature will cause it to come apart. The boiling point of a solution of citric acid in water depends on the concentration of citric acid in the water.

No. As tasty as oranges are, they are filled with citric acid. Too much citric acid can kill you. We could live on water for a while since it keeps us going, but we couldn't eat just one food or drink just one thing. We need a variety of food to keep us alive.
