How to maintain body acid base balance

Coordinating acid-base balance 

The body fluids of healthy people are weakly alkaline, with a pH of 7.35-7.45. When the pH is 7.4, the body is the healthiest, and when the pH is close to 7, it is close to acidic. The accumulation of acidic substances in the human body will cause disease. Therefore, you should pay special attention to regulating the acid-base balance in the body to maintain a healthy body environment.
