What is pH?	Am I acidic?
The Importance of Balancing pH	See the difference!

The "potential hydrogen" (pH) scale ranges from 0 on the acidic side to 14 on the alkaline, and is neutral if its pH is 7. The pH scale is a logarithmic scale, so a change of one pH unit is actually a change x10 in the concentration. pH 6 means you are ten times more acidic than pH 7.

As an example, a popular Cola at a pH of 2.5 is almost 50,000 times more acidic than neutral water. Your system has to compensate with the equivelent of 32 glasses of neutral (pH 7) water to counteract the consumption of one Cola.

Living things, including humans, are extremely sensitive to pH and overall, function best when solutions are nearly neutral. A blood pH of 6.9 can induce coma and death. That is why your system of pH balancing takes primary importance within your own body. Your body will willingly shut down digestion, alter temperature, rob your bones of calcium, deprive your pancreas just to maintain adequate alkalinity to balance the tide of acid we inflict upon ourselves through diet and stress.

Odds are: yes. In fact, 99% of people are. To find out exactly how acidic you are, you can take a litmus test... but let’s start with the obvious... Here’s a list of extremely acidic foods. See anything familiar?
