Dear Reader, Contrary to popular belief, eating acidic foods will not cause one's stomach, blood, or entire body to become more acidic. In fact, during the process of digestion, the stomach secretes hydrochloric acid (HCl), a super-duper acidic substance that causes its contents to become acidic. Digestive enzymes, which begin their work in the stomach, require such an environment to function properly.
How the body reacts to certain foods is what determines what foods are alkaline-forming and what foods are acid-forming.For example lemons are acidic in nature, but have an alkalizing effect on the body once they are digested. Similarly, milk is alkaline outside the body, but acidic upon digestion.ow the body reacts to certain foods is what determines what foods are alkaline-forming and what foods are acid-forming.
