This harmful excess of acidity comes largely from the diet that contains too many acidifying nutrients - examples of acidifying vs. basifying foods, such as sugars, meats, or cheeses. This disruption of balance acidifies our " milieu " and can lead to many disorders. Fortunately, excess acidity can be easily detected with a pH Test, and the acid-base balance can be rebalanced with appropriate food and nutrients such as those contained in the food supplements in this range.
