The term pH has become increasingly common in our everyday vocabulary, but few people know its origin. pH refers to a scale used to measure acidity and was introduced in the early 1900s by the chemist S\u00f8ren S\u00f8rensen. The term comes from the German \u201cPotenz Hydrogen<\/em>\u201d, meaning the power of hydrogen.<\/strong> <\/p>\n

The pH scale ranges from 0 (very acidic) to 14 (very alkaline). For example, pure water has a pH of 7.07, while most fruits are generally acidic. The stomach environment is also highly acidic, ranging from 1 to 1.6. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Overly acidic environments<\/strong> often promote bacterial growth,<\/strong> which is why it is important to understand the pH of the foods we eat and take steps to counteract their effects.<\/div>\n

 
\nThere are various types of acids: citric acid<\/em><\/strong> in citrus fruits like lemons, malic<\/em><\/strong> and benzoic acids<\/em><\/strong> in plums, berries, and apples, and tannic acid<\/strong> in coffee, tea, unripe fruits, and red wine (in these cases, only excessive amounts can cause imbalances in the body). <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

These acids, along with the fruits and vegetables that contain them, are not harmful when consumed in moderation. It is important to balance them with alkaline foods, such as vegetables and dairy products, and to maintain proper oral hygiene to protect tooth enamel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Our saliva is naturally slightly alkaline and helps protect tooth enamel from erosion<\/strong> between meals. However, when saliva becomes more acidic, it allows bacteria to multiply and produce additional acids, which can attack the enamel. <\/p>\n

The foods<\/strong> mentioned above are often harmful to teeth, yet beneficial for the body<\/strong> overall: so what should we do?<\/p>\n

A few sprays of Cariex\u00ae<\/strong> immediately after eating and drinking help neutralise the acidity of food and support the buffering capacity of saliva, preventing enamel demineralisation. Cariex\u00ae is also recommended before brushing<\/strong>, to avoid having to wait the customary 30\u201340 minutes, and above all before going to bed, to counteract nocturnal dry mouth \u2014 which often creates an acidic environment and exposes the teeth to prolonged demineralisation.<\/p>\n

\r\n\r\nLa parola pH \u00e8 diventata di uso sempre pi\u00f9 frequente nei nostri vocabolari, ma pochi sanno da dove derivi. Per pH si intende una scala grazie alla quale \u00e8 possibile misurare l\u2019acidit\u00e0<\/strong>; il termine risale agli inizi del 1900 ed \u00e8 collegato al Chimico Soren Sorensen. La traduzione dal tedesco significa\u00a0Potenz Hydrogen<\/em>, ovvero\u00a0potenza dell\u2019idrogeno<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nIl pH ha dei valori che vanno da 0 (molto acido) fino a un massimo di 14.14 (molto alcalino). Ad esempio l\u2019acqua pura ha un pH di 7,07, mentre la frutta ha un pH generalmente acido, cos\u00ec come \u00e8 molto acido l\u2019ambiente gastrico che oscilla da 1 a 1,6.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
Gli\u00a0ambienti troppo acidi<\/strong>\u00a0sono spesso causa di\u00a0proliferazione batterica<\/strong>, ecco perch\u00e9 \u00e8 importante conoscere il pH degli alimenti e prevenirne gli effetti.<\/div>\r\n
<\/div>\r\n
Esistono vari tipi di acidi: l\u2019acido\u00a0citrico<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0contenuto negli agrumi come il limone, l\u2019acido\u00a0malico<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0e\u00a0benzoico presente\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>nelle prugne, nei frutti di bosco e nelle mele. L\u2019acido\u00a0tannico<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0si trova nel caff\u00e8 e nel t\u00e8, nella frutta acerba e nel vino rosso (anche in questo caso solo l\u2019eccesso pu\u00f2 causare degli scompensi all\u2019organismo).<\/div>\r\n
<\/div>\r\n
Questi acidi, insieme alla frutta e alla verdura che li contengono, non sono nocivi, basta consumarli con moderazione e controbilanciare con alimenti alcalini come verdura, latticini ad esempio ed adottare delle misure di igiene orale per preservare lo smalto dei denti.<\/div>\r\n

ACIDITA' E SALUTE ORALE<\/h2>\r\n
\r\n\r\nLa nostra saliva naturalmente dovrebbe essere alcalina ed evitare\u00a0l\u2019erosione dello smalto dei denti<\/strong>, tra un pasto e l\u2019altro. Quando la saliva diventa pi\u00f9 acida, invece, permette ai batteri di moltiplicarsi e di produrre altri acidi, che vanno a intaccare lo smalto.\r\n\r\nGli\u00a0alimenti<\/strong>\u00a0sopra menzionati\u00a0 sono spesso dannosi per li denti, ma utili per l'organismo: \u00a0cosa fare dunque?\r\n\r\nQualche spruzzo di Cariex\u00ae<\/strong>, subito dopo aver mangiato e bevuto, aiuta a neutralizzare l\u2019acidit\u00e0 degli alimenti e sostenere la capacit\u00e0 tampone della saliva, evitando la demineralizzazione dello smalto. Cariex\u00ae<\/strong>, \u00e8 raccomandato anche prima di lavarsi i denti, per non dover aspettare i canonici 30-40 minuti e soprattutto prima di andare a letto, per contrastare la secchezza delle fauci notturna, che spesso provoca una situazione acida e quindi espone i denti a una demineralizzazione prolungata.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[93,182,94],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3322","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dental-erosion","category-further-reading","category-tooth-sensitivity"],"yoast_head":"\npH: Beware of Acidic Foods!
