What's an "Acidic pH"?
An acidic pH, or "acidosis," is the term used to describe the imbalanced acidic condition of all our body fluids.
Virtually all cellular functions of the body are sensitive to the pH of their fluids. If the pH deviates too far
to the acid side, cells become poisoned in their own toxic acidic wastes and die.
Which Foods
Are "Acid-Forming" and Which Ones Are "Base-Forming"?
Most high protein foods (such as meat, fish, poultry and eggs), nearly all carbohydrates (including grains, breads,
pastas) and fats are "acid-forming." And most fruits and vegetables are "base-forming." Although citrus fruits, such
as oranges and grapefruit, contain organic acids and may have an acid taste, they are not acid forming when metabolized,
leaving no acidic residue. Similarly, Free-Form Amino Acids are not acid-forming, but instead offer unique buffering
capabilities to the body.
How Do
I Get Rid of an "Acidic-pH"?
Watching your diet can help, especially by increasing
the number of fruits and vegetables you eat while
decreasing the amounts of acid-forming foods consumed.
But an easier way is to take Växa Buffer-Ph
