Physiological pH is like a measure of how "sour" or "soapy" something is inside our bodies. If you think of sour things like lemons, they have a low pH. Soapy things, like baking soda, have a high pH. Our body likes to stay in the middle, not too sour and not too soapy, just right, like water. This helps everything inside us work properly. Fad diets like the alkaline or acidity diet claim that eating certain foods/drinking certain beverages can change the pH balance of your body and improve your health. However, this is not supported by science and can be unhealthy for several reasons:
1. **Misunderstanding of pH Balance**: Our bodies are very good at keeping our pH levels stable. What we eat has little effect on our blood pH, which stays around 7.4, slightly alkaline. The body uses various mechanisms to maintain this balance, regardless of diet.
2. **Lack of Scientific Evidence**: There is no solid scientific proof that these diets can cure diseases or significantly improve health. Many claims are based on misconceptions or misinterpretations of how our bodies work.
3. **Potential Harm**: at least, gastric issues such as gastroparesis. At most, death.
In short, fad diets like the alkaline or acidity diet oversimplify complex body processes and can be misleading and harmful. Save your money and avoid alkaline water. Drinking too many carbonated drinks, no matter if plain water, can create a change in the pH of the stomach, too. Look for a culprit there if you're experiencing problems.
I just returned from 5 days at Disney World in Orlando. I thought I would really test the 🚫 seed oils = 🚫 sunburn in the typical Florida weather...hot, glaring sun...for 8-10 hours each day. I did not wear sunscreen. At all. Anywhere. Not even my face. You can see.. no sunburn. I will admit, I am super impressed! Did you know that seed oils in your diet are the cause of sunburn? Buying food at Disney was a total no-go. I honestly was shocked. Most places only offered plant based meats with the usual SAD fare. I found a real meat burger, but it was inedible. It was definitely processed with fillers. The texture and taste were not the ground beef I am familiar with at all. Thankfully, we had a place to cook and groceries delivered. I meal prepped backpack bacon and burgers for the week. And, I am happy I had the forethought and brought 3lbs of my homemade jerky and a few @thecarnivorebar. I enjoyed every bite! I did eat a few noncarnivore treats. (So much for those seed oils!) A couple of fries, a few chips, two sips of a delicious creamy orange drink that tasted like an orange Creamsicle. But, I kind of went overboard on the freeze dried skittles, y'all. I did share my bag but I ate most of them. Thank goodness that's behind me. 🫣 If you have the chance to ride Flight of Passage (Pandora) and Rise of the Resistance (Star Wars), 20/10 recommend!!
Enjoying my carnivore ice cream topped with my carnivore caramel sauce sprinkled with my carnivore crumbles. A delicious carnivore sundae on this Sunday. 😋 What does your Sunday look like?
