If the body does not regulate its acid-base homeostasis, there can be an adverse effect on many vital organs.


the acid=base homeostasis is maintained by lungs, kidneys and buffer systems.

Acidosis - too much acid, fall in blood pH levels

Alkalosis - too much base, rise in blood pH levels.

For vegetables and fruits, the water content as a percentage of the weight can be huge.


For example, fruits such as Watermelons contain 92% in every bite with just 6% sugar and 2% fiber by weight.
