What Causes Me to be Acidic?

The reason acidosis is more common in our society is mostly due to the typical western diet, which is far too high in

acid-producing animal products like meat, eggs and dairy, and far too low in alkaline-producing foods like fresh vegetables.

Additionally, we eat acid-producing processed foods like white our and sugar and drink acid-producing beverages like co ee

and soft drinks. We use too many drugs, which are acid-forming; and we use arti cial chemical sweetners like NutraSweet,

Equal, or aspartame, which are extremely acid-forming. One of the best things we can do to correct an overly-acid body is to

clean up the diet and lifestyle. Refer to the recommended reading for speci c help with diet and lifestyle

Note that a food's acid or alkaline-forming tendency in the body has nothing to do with the actual pH of the food itself. For example, lemons

are very acidic, however the end-products they produce after digestion and assimilation are very alkaline so lemons are alkaline-forming in

the body. Likewise, meat will test alkaline before digestion but it leaves very acidic residue in the body so, like nearly all animal products,

meat is very acid-forming.
