The alkaline diet is based on the fact that the modern diet is dominated by a higher content of food of animal origin compared to the intake of fruits and vegetables. This way of eating leads to the burden of the body with acidic components. In order to prevent the accumulation of acid in the body, advocates of the alkaline diet believe that with the help of food we can maintain an alkaline pH value in the body, which is very important for health.

 

Is that right?

 

 

 

Dear students,

 

Together we will implement the Alkaline diet topic, during our online meeting on April 27. On the following links you can find basic information about Alkaline diets and prepare for the topic of our online meeting.

• Your opinion about this diet
• Would you use or recommend the alkaline diet to others? Explain.

Here is the presentation that will be used.

 

 

 

This meeting consists of:

 

-a menti
- From the point of view of Chemistry, we will talk about the pH value, buffers, the regulation of the pH value in our body and the influence of food on the pH value in our body
- information about the alkaline diet regarding the definition, principles, pros and cons of the alkaline diet
- Discussion about alkaline diet - Would you use this type of diet? Would you recommend an alkaline diet to your friends or family?

 

 

 

 

 

See the results of the menti survey held during the online meeting.

 

 

Students' answers to the questions: Would you use this type of diet? Would you recommend an alkaline diet to your friends or family?
