Why is the pH of urine important?
Indicator of your health
The pH value of urine provides insight into the degree of acidification of your body. A good balance between acids and bases is essential for the optimal functioning of organs, tissues and body fluids.
Influencing factors
Diet, stress, medication, physical exertion and environmental factors can affect pH. Regular measurement can help you understand and adjust changes in your health.
Morning urine and diurnal variations
- Morning urine: Usually more acidic due to the excretion of acidic waste products at night.
- During the day: The pH value fluctuates depending on meals and base production.
How does measuring with Alka® pH Test Strips work?
The pH scale runs from 0 to 14:
- < 7: Sour.
- 7: Neutral.
- > 7: Alkaline.
Average daily pH value:
- 6.5 – 7.0: No significant acidification.
- 5.5 – 6.5: Moderate acidification.
- 4.5 – 5.5: High degree of acidification.
Instructions for use
-
Preparation:
- Stop eating and drinking after 8:00 PM the night before test day, except for water.
-
Measurements on the test day:
- Morning: Measure immediately after waking up with a new test strip.
- Afternoon: Take the second measurement around 1:00 PM.
- Evening: Conclude with a third measurement around 8:00 PM.
-
Calculating the average:
- Record the pH values of all three measurements.
- Add the values together and divide by 3 to determine the average daily value.
-
Registration:
Use the handy chart on the packaging to keep track of your measurements.
Interpret the result
- Average pH 6.5 – 7.0: Healthy balance.
- Average pH 5.5 – 6.5: Moderate acidification, attention required.
- Average pH 4.5 – 5.5: High acidification, action needed to restore balance.
What can you do about acidification?
Acidification can be tackled by:
- Consume more alkaline foods, such as vegetables and fruits.
