It depends on the individual, but I remember a study we did back in medical school that showed Malic Acid causes some mild gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining) in rare cases. This does happen to some people. If it happens, then you should have some mild cramping and possibly some bloating. You can prevent this from happening by only taking small doses of Malic Acid or directed by your physician.

Is malic acid a natural product?
There are two forms of malic acid; the L-isomer is found naturally in most fruits and many vegetables in varying amounts. Of the total acid content in apples, 90-98% is L-malic acid. Malic acid can also be produced synthetically from maleic anhydride. It is impossible to choose whether natural L-malic acid or the unnatural D-malic acid isomer is formed during synthesis so a mixture of the two is formed, often called DL-malic acid. It is most likely that if malic acid is used as an additive, it is the synthetic DL-malic acid. The body metabolises the two forms in exactly the same way.
Why does malic acid increase when the temperature increases?
Malic acid concentration may increase with temperature as increased temperature can enhance the metabolic processes within the fruit, leading to more malic acid production. Additionally, as the temperature rises, there may be a breakdown of other compounds in the fruit that results in the accumulation of malic acid.
What acid does an apple contain?
The main acid in apples and other fruits and vegetables is malic acid, which creates the tartness of green apples and certain varieties. It is found in our cells as one of the chemicals in the process of breaking down sugar to provide energy for our cells. Apples also contain ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and small amounts of vitamin B5 (also an acid).
What is the Colourless crystalline compound found in apples?
The colourless crystalline compound found in apples is called malic acid. It is a natural organic acid that contributes to the tart flavor of apples and other fruits.
What happens to maltic acid in winemaking fermentaion does it increase or decrease form start to finish?
Malic acid in new wine will often under go a process know as malolactic fermentation. The harsher 'malic' acid in the wine is broken down by Lactic bacteria into Lactic acid and Carbon dioxide. It is usually desired in a wine that has a higher acidity level.
Does malic acid cause stomach pains?
Yes it can. Because it causes major pain in the bladder and in the stomach. It hurts very much and it
What is differnece in dl-malic acid and malic acid?
There are two different structures of malic acid, an L-isomer and a D-isomer. These two molecules are identical like your left and right hands. While they have the same atoms and bonds, they are not necessarily interchangeable, just as you cannot fit your left hand in a right hand-shaped hole. L-Malic acid is produced naturally in fruits. 90% of the acid in apples is malic acid. When malic acid is produced synthetically, a mixture of the two isomers is obtained which is called DL-malic acid (because it contains both D- and L-malic acid). When you eat DL-malic acid, your body digests the L-malic acid normally (it is part of the Kreb's cycle), but the D-malic acid is excreted in the urine. A 1967 study by the WHO shows evidence that D-malic acid is toxic and causes renal damage. When purchasing malic acid, if it is called "malic acid" it is likely DL-malic acid. If the natural form is desired, purchase specifically L-malic acid.
What is difference in malic acid and dl malic acid?
There are two different structures of malic acid, an L-isomer and a D-isomer. The only difference between the two is that they rotate the light shining on them in two different directions. L-Malic acid is produced naturally in fruits. 90% of the acid in apples is malic acid. When malic acid is produced synthetically, a mixture of the two isomers is obtained which is called DL-malic acid (because it contains both D- and L-malic acid). When you eat DL-malic acid, your body digests it in just the same way as it does for L-malic acid. It is part of the Krebs cycle.
Do tomatoes have malic acid?
the answer is yes. tomatoes do contain Malic acid.
Is malic acid soluble in water?
Yes, malic acid is soluble in water.
What acid is present in apple?
Malic acid, also shown as E296 when used as an additive ingredient
Do apples contain malic acid?
Of all the acid in green apples, 90% of it will be malic acid. This naturally-occuring acid will be found exclusively in the form of the L-isomer, whereas synthetic malic acid is made up of both L- and D-malic acid
What fruit has the most malic acid?
Apples contain the most malic acid as a percentage of total fruit acid content. The amount of malic acid in apples as a percentage of the total acid is 94-98%
What acid is present in banana?
Bananas contain mainly citric acid and malic acid. However, the majority of the acid in bananas is malic acid.
