Acidity Foodborne pathogens require a slightly acidic pH level of 4.6–7.5, while they thrive in conditions with a pH of 6.6–7.5. The United States Food and Drug Administration 's (FDA) regulations for acid/acidified foods require that the food be brought to pH 4.5 or below.
As foods vary by brands and stores, the figures should only be considered estimates, with more exact figures often included on product labels. For precise details about vitamins and mineral contents, the USDA source can be used. [1] To use the tables, click on "show" or "hide" at the far right for each food category.
[1] [2] PRAL is a different acidity measure than the food ash measurement. [3] Some acidic foods actually have a negative PRAL measurement, meaning they reduce acidity in the stomach. [4] [5] A low PRAL diet (not to be confused with an alkaline diet) can lower acidity in the stomach, which can be helpful for people suffering GERD or Acid Reflux ...

Free acidity is an important parameter that defines the quality of olive oil. It is usually expressed as a percentage of oleic acid (the main fatty acid present in olive oil) in the oil. As defined by the European Commission regulation No. 2568/91 and subsequent amendments, [ 1 ] the highest quality olive oil (extra-virgin olive oil) must ...

The lowest pH of the secreted acid is 0.8, [7] but the acid is diluted in the stomach lumen to a pH of between 1 and 3. There is a small continuous basal secretion of gastric acid between meals of usually less than 10 mEq/hour. [8] There are three phases in the secretion of gastric acid which increase the secretion rate in order to digest a ...
