Is it safe to drink acid?

Answer 1

Never drink or even touch a strong acid or base.

That said, people drink mild acids every day.

Some acids you probably have drunk already, e. g. citric acid is in fruit juices and soft drinks. Acetic acid is the main component (5-10%) in vinegar.

Stronger and more concentrated acid solutions, pH below 3, can be harmful or even toxic. A lot of acids are toxic anyhow!

Answer 2

Acidic foods tend to be more shelf stable and safer longer than neutral or slightly basic foods because the acid inhibits the growth of most bacteria, including pathogenic bacteria and spoilage bacteria.

Answer 3

The acids found in foods, such as citric acid and lactic acid, are safe to eat because they are components of the foods, and the foods are safe to eat.

Answer 4
