Alkaline diets, the alkaline diet, have started to come to the fore as a method that attracts the attention of people who want to lose weight with the arrival of the spring months.
So, do alkaline diets really have an effect on losing weight?
The alkaline diet advocates the view that the pH balance in the body may change due to the acid and alkaline content of foods. Proponents of an alkaline diet say that by shifting the body's acid-base balance to alkaline, the metabolism is accelerated and that people can lose weight more easily.
A pH value of 0-7 is acidic, a pH value of 7 is neutral, and a pH value of 7-14 is alkaline. represents the environment. Accordingly, if the acidity of the consumed foods is high, the pH balance of the body becomes acidic, and with the consumption of the alkaline food group, the pH value becomes alkaline. While poultry, fish, milk, eggs, grains and alcohol create an acidic environment, fruits-vegetables, oilseeds and legumes create an alkaline environment.
So, does what we eat affect blood pH or urine pH? Does it affect your blood sugar?
Urine pH2, not blood pH, changes with alkaline diet practices. If the food we take into the body affected blood pH, many functions would not occur in the body and many health risks would arise. Since blood pH2 is regulated by mechanisms in the body, the body's acid-base balance cannot be changed by external interventions.
