Prevention of Acidity

Acidic foods are those that have a PH level below 5.0. These foods are often high in protein and low in fiber. Examples of acidic foods include meat, dairy products, and processed foods. Foods that are alkaline tend to have a higher pH level than acidic foods. Alkaline foods are often high in fiber and lower in protein. Examples of alkaline foods include fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, and legumes.

The body produces acids naturally to help break down food and digest it. However, if the body's natural balance of acids and bases is disrupted, then the body becomes acidic. When the body becomes acidic, it can cause damage to cells and organs. If the body's PH levels become too acidic, it can lead to conditions like arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and even premature aging.

To maintain a balanced PH level in the body, we need to consume foods that are alkaline and avoid consuming foods that are acidic. To do this, try eating lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, beans, lentils, and nuts. Avoid drinking soda, alcohol, and coffee.
