pHneutralist
pHneutralist refers to a personal philosophy or lifestyle choice focused on maintaining a neutral pH balance in various aspects of one's life. This can extend from dietary choices, aiming to consume foods that are neither overly acidic nor alkaline, to personal care products, seeking out those labeled as pH-neutral. The concept often draws from a belief that a neutral pH, typically around 7 on the pH scale, is optimal for biological processes and overall well-being. Proponents may believe that consuming or using products with extreme pH levels can disrupt the body's natural equilibrium, leading to various health issues. While the scientific basis for some of these claims is debated, the pHneutralist approach emphasizes balance and moderation. It is not a recognized medical term or a formal scientific discipline, but rather a self-identified approach to health and lifestyle. Individuals adopting this philosophy often research the pH levels of different foods, beverages, and personal care items to make informed choices that align with their goal of achieving and maintaining pH neutrality.
