Dear
Barb When
we last spoke,
you gave me a
list of acid and
alkaline (base)
forming foods so I could balance
what I ate. Can you explain this a
bit more? Gladys from Boca.

A

nswer: Dear Gladys, pH
(acid-base) balance is be-
lieved by many to be very
important in the diet. Acid-base
balance is achieved when the body
acids produced equal those that are
expelled. Usually, our bodies are
smart enough to buffer this process
(i.e., limit change) and maintain
equilibrium. This symmetry
1 .
?-- is accomplished through
breath (respiration), kidney
function, and chemical
buffers working together
to maintain balance. High
acidity is known as aci-
dosis, while high alkality
is known as alkalosis.

Alkaline foods like whole grains
and seasonal fruits and vegetables
produce more alkalinity, while
foods like meat, sugar, and refined
flour products may increase acid-
ity. Balance is achieved by eating a
proper variety of the right foods.

Acid is introduced to the
body in different ways:
for example, acetic acid
can come from eating too
much vinegar, citric acid
may come from ingesting lemon
juice, and other acids exist in our
daily diet. Medical conditions
like diabetes, diarrhea and kidney
failure can alter the body's proper
acid-base balance.
