Tired? listless? without energy? Acidosis takes many forms and impairs personal well-being.
In this article, we want to show you how acidosis occurs, what consequences it can have for you, how you can recognize acidosis in your body and, last but not least, 5 helpful tips on how to use it.
Acidosis" refers to an imbalance in the body's acid-base balance, which is primarily caused by excessive consumption of acid-forming foods and insufficient consumption of alkaline-forming foods.
Acidosis can lead to numerous complaints and secondary diseases in the long term. The symptoms often go unnoticed for decades - until the body has already suffered damage.
Acidification of the body occurs when we consume too many acid-forming foods and too few alkaline-forming foods. Highly acidifying foods include sugar, carbohydrates and animal products. (You can find a list of different types of food with regard to their acidity in the body here). Stress and lack of exercise can also be reasons for an unbalanced acid-alkaline balance.
In the short term, an excess of acids is not a challenge for the body, as it can break down excess acids through its buffer system. However, if our acid-base balance is out of balance for years or even decades due to an unhealthy lifestyle, this can lead to chronic acidosis - with numerous consequences.

For a better overview, here is a list of possible symptoms or complaints that can be caused or promoted by chronic hyperacidity:
To prevent our body cells from being destroyed by acidic metabolic products, the body constantly strives to keep the pH value of the blood constant between 7.2 and 7.4. For this purpose, our body has a complex buffer system consisting of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium, which is able to absorb and neutralize excessive acids (but also excessive bases).
These buffers are mixtures of weak bases that bind acids (or vice versa) and can therefore compensate for harmful pH fluctuations in the blood. They are therefore also referred to as"blood buffers". The stomach, kidneys, skin, intestines, lungs and connective tissue are regulators in the acid-base balance that provide the corresponding buffers.
The buffering capacity of a body corresponds to the amount of acid (or base) that can be added without changing the pH value of the blood to an extent that is harmful to health. The greater the buffering capacity, the more stable the system is against changes in the pH value.
If there is an excess of acids in the body over a long period of time (typically due to poor eating habits), a large amount of minerals must be used to neutralize them. As highly acidic foods do not provide any minerals, the body has no choice but to take the missing minerals from its own resources once the blood buffer has been completely used up: from the bones, teeth, hair, blood vessels and organs. This explains the various complaints described above that can result from acidosis in the body.
The pH value (derived from"powerof hydrogen") is a measure of the acidic or alkaline character of an aqueous solution. Every cell in our organism is influenced by the pH value of our body fluids.
Conventional tap water typically has a pH value of 7.
Due to their different functions, each body fluid has a different optimum pH value. Some parts of the body need to be acidic, such as stomach acid with a strongly acidic pH value of 1-2. After the strong stomach acid has acidified a meal in the stomach and thus predigested it, it is mixed with the alkaline digestive juices of the pancreas and bile after leaving the stomach.
As you can see, there is no such thing as a "good" pH value for the entire body - instead, each body fluid has its own optimum pH value range. The pH value of the blood is most important for the state of health.
Due to modern eating habits, there is often a risk of permanent acidification of the body.
Because chronic acidosis usually develops slowly and unnoticed and initially only causes atypical symptoms, it is best detected by measuring the pH value of the urine. You can carry out this measurement yourself relatively easily using pH test strips.

Many foods such as animal proteins, sweets and ready meals promote hyperacidity - so try to avoid these as much as possible! Also make sure you drink plenty of water - but always non-carbonated, please.
A ratio of ¼ acid-forming and ¾ alkaline foods is considered optimal for the body. The latter include fruit, vegetables and herbs, for example.
To give you an overview of recommended and non-recommended foods, we have compiled a list for you here:
At least until your acid-base balance has been restored and your body has had the opportunity to replenish its blood buffer, you should actively supplement your body with bases to help it deacidify. If you like to eat out or eat fast food, sweets and coffee, we recommend an ongoing daily intake of minerals even after an initial intensive alkaline cure to keep your acid-base balance in balance in the long term.
We at Herbano have developed two high-quality mineral formulas for targeted deacidification of the body, which are produced in Germany in compliance with the strictest testing standards and regulations.

Treat yourself to a 45-60 minute "alkaline bath" once or twice a week with special high-quality bath additives - ideally as a full bath, or (if you don't have a bathtub) at least in the form of a foot bath. The main effect of alkaline baths is not to stabilize your blood buffer, but to eliminate acidic waste products from your connective tissue. Especially at the beginning of an alkaline cure, when you neutralize a particularly high amount of acids through the intake of minerals, you should not do without regular alkaline baths so that the neutralized acids can be completely excreted from your body.
You can also perform brush massages to activate the elimination of neutralized acids via the lymphatic system.

Exercise regularly so that you really work up a sweat. This stimulates your body's metabolism and also supports deacidification in this respect.
But be careful: don't overexert yourself - especially if you are untrained. Otherwise you can achieve the opposite: so-called"overload acidosis".
Especially if you suffer from a stressful everyday life at work or at home, give your body a break.

In principle, there should be no side effects. However, if too much alkaline powder has been taken, diarrhea may occur, as the intake of alkaline powder particularly stimulates the organs.
No, not in the scientific sense! Metabolic or respiratory "acidosis" refers to a drop inthe pH value in the blood to a value below 7.35 - regardless of the pH value of other body fluids. Acidosis in the general sense can have life-threatening consequences and can occur, for example, in diabetics as a result of insulin deficiency.
Acidosis is not related to acidosis of the body. Even if the body is chronically over-acidified, the blood still remains alkaline - because the body does everything it can to keep the pH value of the blood at 7.4.
However, naturopathy often speaks of chronic, latent acidosis. This is not yet recognized by some scientists. But more and more experts are advocating it.
In the case of chronic acidosis as part of an unhealthy lifestyle, the person is affected by a disturbance of the acid-base balance. This chronic acidosis is not life-threatening, but it is often the cause of numerous chronic degenerative diseases. Precisely because acidosis is not a threat that requires immediate medical treatment (unlike acidosis), chronic acidosis can be counteracted in the long term with a healthy alkaline diet.
Many people initially think of heartburn when they hear the term"hyperacidity". However, these are two different things.
Since hyperacidity is the cause of most health problems (if these problems are not present from birth), it is also involved in the development of heartburn. However, heartburn is just one of the many possible symptoms of acidosis.
