在这段视频中，圣巴巴拉营养公司总裁 UCSB 教授 Thomas Weimbs 博士讨论了如何测量尿液 pH 值、为什么肾病患者监测尿液 pH 值很重要，以及饮食对尿液 pH 值的影响。 Santa Barbara Nutrients 还宣布赞助 代谢健康峰会。 对于患有肾脏疾病的人来说，监测尿液 pH 值非常重要。根据我们吃的食物种类和某些健康状况，尿液 pH 值可能会有很大差异。完全中性的 pH 值（既不是酸性也不是碱性）的值为 7。工业化社会中的大多数人的尿液 pH 值呈酸性（例如，pH 值在 5 左右，比 pH 7 的酸性强 100 倍），因为大量食用酸化食物，例如如谷物和动物蛋白（肉类、奶制品、鸡蛋）。此外，许多健康状况会影响尿液 pH 值。例如，患有慢性肾病的人的尿液 pH 值经常呈酸性。如果尿液 pH 值太酸或太碱，形成微小晶体的风险就会更高，从而损害肾脏并导致肾结石。例如，酸性尿液 pH...
