Artificial
sweeteners are even more acidic than white sugar. Note that honey which
contains minerals, is only slightly
acidic because although it contains natural sugar it also contains
minerals, vitamins and other components to help digest. Refined white
sugar and artificial sweeteners contain no minerals or nutrients to
speak of.
Fruit: Some
fresh fruits are slightly acidic because
they do contain natural sugars. Note the drastic increase in acidity
when processed sugar is added. Also, although these fruits have
an acidic pH, this is because of the natural sugar content, they also
contain vitally healthy antioxidants, so don't stop consuming them just
because they are a little acidic. Blueberries and strawberries
contain more antioxidants that any other food except garlic.
