the digestive system produces a hydrochloric acid medium for the action of pepsin without which it would be impossible to digest proteins. this hydrochloric acid emission causes the pH of the stomach.
If the pH is too high than your body will digest less of the food it would have naturally digested. If the pH level is too low, meaning a stronger acid, then the acid will start eating away at your stomach faster than the new cells can replace the old ones, causing heart burn. Heres a pH scale. Acid 0-----------7------------14 Base
Neutral
High stomach pH signifies overproduction of hydrocholic acid.
i slowly weres the lineing down
Your stomach has a pH of 2.0
The hydrochloric acid in the stomach is strongly acidic - pH 1-2.
around 1-2 is the pH of stomach acid
Your stomach acid has a pH of 1.5 to 3.5
stomach acid has a lower ph, therefore a stronger acid
pH of stomach juice is between 1 and 2.
Stomach pH at digestion is 2.
The pH of your stomach changes depending on what you are eating. If you are digesting a fat the solution can increase.
A very basic solution that is at about 14, it is called penis juice.
Stomach acid - hydrochloric acid - has a pH of between 1 and 2. This makes the stomach very acidic.
It is usually not too high of acidity that causes acid reflux. Acid reflux is a product of a faulty cardiac sphincter, which allows the highly acidic chyme to flow back into the esophagus. Your esophagus is not protected from the acid like your stomach is with the stomach lining of mucus. The pH range of stomach acid is about 1.5-2, which is strong enough to dissolve iron nails.
It means that the stomach is very acidic.
