When blood pH drops below 7.4 it is known as blood acidity: when this occurs, the following symptoms can occur: mucus membrane irritation, skin irritation/rash, heart palpitations, fatigue, and other metabolic disturbances/symptoms.

Blood acidity can be caused by a diet too high in sugars, flours and meats: which increases acidity in the blood. Fruits and vegetables increase alkalinity in the blood. If your blood becomes alkaline, that too will have detrimental effects on the body.
