If a person ingests too much vinegar, lemon juice, or any acidic foods, would metabolic acidosis occur?
Answer:
No. It all would depend on the metabolic end products that are created when a food’s constituent compounds are disassociated. For example, when citric acid (found abundantly in citrus fruits) is metabolized, it becomes the strong base citrate, and is further metabolized into bicarbonate, the blood’s preferred buffer.
Many foods, such as lemons and citrus fruits are acidic by chemical analysis, but they actually have an alkalizing effect on the body.
High animal protein, processed junk foods and many cooked foods all become acid in the body and may result to metabolic acidosis.
i dont think so coz once i did and nothing what so ever happened, but then to each one his own.
No.
no way
no. it passes through your GI tract first. metabolic acidosis depends on the buffer system in your blood
i agree with furball... when that happens your body would still have to compensate for that. =)
