I do not know but I don't think so. Go to the AVC forum if you are concerned but I honestly do not think it would. As I said I take 1 tablespoon day & night sometimes on a empty stomach, sometimes not. I always make sure to drink lots of water before & after I take it to water it down in my stomach. Sometimes I feel a bit queezy for a few moments but that passes. Again I wouldn't worry. But make sure to brush your teeth. It can take the enamal (sp?) of your teeth. Or use baking soda and rince with that, but don't swallow it. It will neutralize the AVC.
