                                The human body maintains blood pH within a very narrow range of 7.35 to 7.45 through complex physiological processes involving the lungs and kidneys. This tight regulation means that a truly alkaline body, a state known as alkalosis, is a rare and life-threatening medical emergency, not a state of ideal health achieved through diet.
