Re: can i alkalize without causing heartburn or upsetting bowel ph?
Hi
Do you rather mean to higher your pH hence lowering the acidity level of the urine?
Your mixture s/b taken between meals.
Use sodium bicarb only temporary and if you don’t have water retention or blood pressure problems.
It is better to use it with with potassium (potassium bicarbonate, potassium citrate ...) so that the sodium/potassium ratio is not too much unbalanced.
Maybe ½ tsp is too much, better use ¼ tsp with at least ½ a glass of water.
Lemon juice can be replaced by unfiltered raw Apple Cider Vinegar, maybe 2tbs.
If you’ve been in acidosis for quite sometime you are surely deficient of many minerals, so it is a lot better to alkalize with a variety of minerals.
So the solution? Eat food which has a lot of minerals: Quality veggies
I would like to invite you to the AskMoreless Acid/Alkaline pH balance.
