The interesting thing about the body trying to maintain pH is that it will do anything to keep a pH set point that is best for the body. I liked the quote on the various ways that is done. However it doesn't mention how the body will take calcium from bones and bring that into the mix when there's too much acid somewhere. These are all reasons to try to be more alkaline, don't you think?
That's because with a normal body, your body PH doesn't change much until you have massive change in your cellular structure ( Eg: cancer ). Otto warburg has proven that depreviation of cellular oxygen up to 35% lead to formation of cancer. Many scientists have reconfirmed the discovery. But no credible research has proven that low PH alone lead to initiation of cancer.

I'm advocator of healthy non-processed and balanced diet but i just don't buy into this "alkaline diet". The food in alkaline diet maybe healthy but it may not have alot to do with alkalinity. It has more to do with full spectrum of minerals that are in the whole food ( certified organic certainly has more )

Otherwise you may as well add sodium/ammonia in your trans fat ladden french fries and make it a healthy alkaline food to solve the cancer problem for millions.
