The Alkaline Diet Myth: The body’s pH is NOT impacted by diet - TopicsExpress



          

The Alkaline Diet Myth: The body’s pH is NOT impacted by diet Our bodies maintain pH levels – regardless of diet – because our survival is entirely dependent on it. Folks who think they are monitoring their body’s pH balance will often perform urine tests. While foods may impact the pH of urine (output of waste), they won’t affect the pH of blood or other vital body parts unless you are very, very ill. So those pee sticks are not telling you a thing about the pH of your insides. (source) As with any sensible, nutrient-dense diet, an “alkaline” diet discourages eating processed foods and refined sugars. It also encourages eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables and staying hydrated. That all sounds perfectly fine, and for folks in need of a more cleansing diet due to disease or obesity – a lean toward greens and other veggies may a smart move.
