When you eat food, after it has been digested it is presented to the body in either an acid or a base form. There are nutritional bases which cover the acid nutrition base. If your diet has too much acid the net acid load on your body is increased. If it is in excess it can cause you problems such as ulcers. This stays with a person for a long time and some people do not get healed.

To avoid this you need to go back to your diet and ensure that it is balanced so that your body does not react to an excess of anything. Drink lots of water and foods that are alkaline so that they can help to balance the acidity in the body. Avoid eating too much meat but instead substitute this with vegetables and fruits which do not contain acid in them. You can use many food charts that are available to measure the degree of acidity in your food.
