A disorder characterized by abnormally high acidity (high hydrogen-ion concentration) of the blood and other body tissues. A pathologic condition of acid accumulation or depletion of base in the body. The two main types are respiratory acidosis and metabolic acidosis, due to metabolic acid build up.

Metabolic acidosis is a condition in which acids build up in your body. Causes include untreated diabetes, the loss of bicarbonate in your body and kidney conditions. Symptoms include an accelerated heartbeat, confusion and fatigue. Blood and urine tests can help diagnose it.
Metabolic acidosis can be caused by acid accumulation due to increased acid production or acid ingestion; decreased acid excretion; or gastrointestinal or renal bicarbonate (HCO 3 −) loss. Metabolic acidoses are categorized based on whether the anion gap is high or normal.
Metabolic acidosis is characterized by an increase in the hydrogen ion concentration in the systemic circulation resulting in a serum HCO3 less than 24 mEq/L. Metabolic acidosis is not a benign condition and signifies an underlying disorder that needs to be corrected to minimize morbidity and mortality.

INTRODUCTION. On a typical Western diet, approximately 15,000 mmol of carbon dioxide (which can generate carbonic acid as it combines with water) and 50 to 100 mEq of nonvolatile acid (mostly sulfuric acid derived from the metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids) are produced each day.
