Alkalinity: AKA - A basic talk about pH - Episode #112

What's the deal with the "alkaline diet"? This week, Michael and Chris try to answer a whole bunch of questions on the topic, like what is alkaline ash? What happens when you put a basic substance into your acidic digestive system? Is it even possible to make your body alkaline? Is being too acidic a bad thing? How does acid/base balance influence your bones, inflammation and immune system? What about cancer? Plus, they boys toss around the idea of creating a new genetically-modified probiotic.
