Nutrition Society Article Suggests A Possible Link Between Acidic Diet And Bone Health
According to an article published in the Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, "The role that the skeleton plays in acid-base homeostasis has been gaining increasing prominence in the literature; with theoretical considerations of the role alkaline bone mineral may play in the defense against acidosis dating as far back as the 19th century. Natural, pathological and experimental states of acid loading and/or acidosis have been associated with hypercalciuria and negative Ca balance and, more recently, the detrimental effects of 'acid' from the diet on bone mineral have been demonstrated."
