How Food pH Affects Body pH

If you are interested in maintaining healthy pH levels inside your body, the first place you can start is by learning about food pH. All foods and beverages have a pH measurement. Interestingly, food pH and beverage pH may change once they are digested by your body. For example, orange juice has an acidic pH outside of the body, with a pH range of about 3-4. But, once orange juice is metabolized, it will leave alkaline residues in your body. Therefore, the effect of food pH inside your body may be very different than the pH of the food itself.

To maintain optimum health, your body is constantly working to maintain a slightly alkaline pH. The main culprit behind fluctuating body pH levels is the pH of food that you ingest into your body. Modern diets tempt us to consume a lot of acid producing foods like meat, coffee, cheese, butter, oils, breads, grains, and pastas. By remaining aware of the food pH of everything you eat, you can avoid acid producing foods and concentrate more on alkaline producing foods. Proper food pH in your everyday diet will take a lot of stress off your body and help your body to hold onto important minerals.

To eat a diet with more of an alkaline producing food pH or neutral food pH, increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, legumes, mushrooms, seeds, and milk. Also, since food pH can change inside your body, it’s a good idea to use pH testing strips to test your urine. These testing strips will give you a better idea of what pH effect your diet is having on your body.
