The Body’s pH Balance
After food is digested in the body, it leaves behind a mineral residue (ash), which is excreted in the bodies systems.. Thus, specific foods have specific effects on the pH balance. All foods are either acid-ash, alkaline-ash or neutral-ash, meaning that they either decrease, increase or do not change the pH. Your pH can be changed by making different food choices.
