Not exactly.
The human body is very capable of dealing with even our worst choices of foods and beverages that are low pH (acid) or high pH (alkaline) (at least in the short term). Unless you are doing shots of battery acid, anything you would ever drink pales to the extreme acid nature (pH 1.2 to 3.0)of the normally functioning human stomach. Examples include: Lemon juice (pH 2.3), carbonated soda (pH 3.0 to 3.5), orange juice (pH 3.5), tomato juice (pH 4.5), coffee (pH 5.0), saliva (pH 6.35 to 6.85), milk (pH 6.8), blood ( pH 7.35 to 7.45), lye (pH 14.0) - obviously not a beverage of choice. Homeostatic mechanisms do absolutely maintain blood pH between 7.35 and 7.45. The pH of fluids both inside and outside cells remain nearly constant despite adding to, or the body's manufacturing of strong acids and/or bases. This is an amazing physiological phenomenon known as the buffer system. It easily deals with most acid/base challenges we throw at our bodies.
Not exactly.
I know our bodies are very strong and can cobat it. However, to imply that a highly acidic environment is good for you long term is nonsense.
Most of our diets (meaning people in the United States) are acidic. It’s one of the main reasons why so many people are having medical issues.
” ...shots of battery acid ...”
Mmm, my morning brew. That’s how I roll ;-)
