                                While the human body tightly regulates the pH level of its blood within a very narrow, slightly alkaline range of 7.35 to 7.45, proponents of the pH7 or alkaline diet suggest that the foods we eat can influence our body's overall acid load. This diet, though scientifically controversial regarding its core premise, is structured around the theory that consuming more alkaline-forming foods can promote health.
