so someone had a question recently related to the ph of saliva and they're very concerned
about their ph being too acid to alkaline and they wanted to know what should it be
well this is the normal ph range of your saliva between 6.2 to 7.6 and anything above
7 goes alkaline anything below 7 is acid 7 being neutral so your saliva could be slightly
acidic could be slightly basic or alkaline so it could be both now if your saliva goes too high
potentially you can start developing tartar if it's too low and you become too acidic
you could start developing dental cavities as well as infections in the gum
and bad breath and there's a whole bunch of other problems that you can develop
well you have to realize that in your mouth you have a lot of bacteria that use dietary sugar to
make acids and that's what really breaks down the tooth now if you're on the ketogenic diet
you could be very very acidic because the definition of keto is just low carb so you
can just do a lot of fat and protein and get into ketosis and end up becoming pretty acidic
now the type of keto that i recommend is healthy keto which my definition is
providing all the nutrients that you need and balancing out
your protein fat with vegetable a lot of it between at least seven cups up to 10 cups per day
now of course that would be more salad i'm not talking about 10 cups of broccoli for example
there's no way you're going to do that maybe you do four cups per day but when you're talking about
salad you have big salads that provides a lot of alkalinity to help balance off these acids so
you have a lot of potassium magnesium and also calcium so that way you provide all the nutrients
to help buffer any type of foods that could create excessive amounts of you know acids now
