MBTI and DISC tests are popular tests to find out personality, but the constitution of our body (body) was popular in the past.
The constitution of the human body is formed by combining genetic constitution elements and environmental factors, and the body's nature, base, individual form, and all of its functions refer to the characteristics or properties of each individual.
It can be said that its origins are Hippocrates in the West and the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic in the East.
In the East, the Sasang constitution is composed of the Taeyangin, Taeeumin, Soyangin, and Soeumin, and in the West, it consists of blood, phlegm, yellow bile, melancholy, and black bile. Surprisingly, the Sasang constitution of the East and the four temperaments of Galenus in the West are surprisingly similar.
This time, we will learn about our body constitutions, especially acidic and alkaline constitutions.
Our body is slightly alkaline with a pH of about 7.4, and chronic diseases including adult diseases are due to this acidic constitution, and it is said that if we change to an alkaline constitution, we will not get sick and live a long life, but it is said that this is not scientifically and medically convincing.
The acidity of the human body changes within ±0.04, and if the pH changes by only 0.1, a human can lose consciousness or even die. To this end, there is homeostasis, and the body has the property of maintaining a normal state in response to external reactions, so it can naturally maintain a certain concentration.
Therefore, it can be said that the idea that the body's constitution should be changed to alkaline as the human body becomes acidic due to scientific and industrialization is a commercial term.
(In general chemistry, the equilibrium of acids and bases, neutralization reactions, and buffers and buffering actions (buffering actions by bicarbonate ions and carbonic acid in the blood)
Whether a food is acidic or alkaline is not determined by its own properties, such as when it tastes sour when eaten, but by how the pH level is displayed when it enters the body.
The classification of acidic and alkaline foods below is for balanced eating habits.
Acidic foods: Carbohydrates such as rice or bread are broken down and ultimately changed into water and carbon dioxide, and this carbon dioxide combines with water to become carbonic acid, so they are acidic foods. (Carbonic acid: H2Co3)
Meat, eggs, and fish that contain a lot of protein are also acidic foods, because the elements contained in the protein, such as sulfur (S: sulfuric acid H2So4)), phosphorus (P: phosphoric acid H2Po3)), and nitrogen (N: nitrate H2No3)), enter the body and create acidic substances. In addition, our favorite snacks, ice cream, candy, chocolate, etc. are all acidic foods.
Alkaline foods: Vegetables, fruits, and other plant-based foods, seaweeds such as kelp, seaweed, laver, and milk are included in this category, and they are foods that contain a lot of alkaline minerals such as calcium (Ca: calcium hydroxide (Ca2OH)), sodium (Na: sodium hydroxide NaOH), potassium (K: potassium hydroxide KOH), and magnesium (Mg: magnesium hydroxide Mg2OH).
In contrast, duck meat, although it is meat, contains a lot of these substances, so it is called an alkaline food.
The human body has a mysterious homeostasis and has the property of trying to maintain balance and return to normal on its own, so there is no major problem if you do not eat only one type of food and maintain a balanced diet.
