Health information that need attention
If the body becomes too acidic — a condition known as acidosis — it can disrupt normal cell and organ function because your body’s chemical balance depends on keeping blood pH tightly controlled (around 7.35–7.45, slightly alkaline).
Here’s what can happen:
Short-term effects
Fatigue & weakness – Cells can’t produce energy efficiently when the pH is too low.
Headaches, confusion, dizziness – Acid buildup can affect brain function.
Rapid breathing – The body tries to “blow off” acid by expelling more carbon dioxide.
Muscle cramps or twitching – Acid imbalance affects muscle contraction.
Long-term / severe effects
Bone loss (osteoporosis) – Chronic acidity can leach calcium from bones to buffer excess acid.
Kidney strain – The kidneys work harder to remove acid, risking kidney stones or damage.
Inflammation – Acidic environments can promote chronic inflammation.
Coma or death – In extreme, untreated acidosis (e.g., in uncontrolled diabetes or severe kidney disease), organ systems can shut down.
Common causes
Uncontrolled diabetes (ketoacidosis)
Severe lung disease (respiratory acidosis)
Chronic kidney disease
Excess alcohol intake
Extreme dehydration
Certain medications or toxins
The good news: Your body has strong buffering systems (lungs, kidneys, blood buffers) that prevent mild acidity.
Be alkalanize our body for disease prevention.
