when your body becomes too acidic, it will attempt to compensate by retaining alkaline salts in the bloodstream to offset the increase of tissue acidity. Since your body can ONLY tolerate a small imbalance in blood pH, it will rob alkaline components from other places including your body's precious alkaline reserves in an effort to restore a proper pH balance. This can result in heartburn, digestive distress, stomach upset, fatigue, and a multitude of varying symptoms.

Commerical antacid products only alleviate the symptoms by blocking the production of acid and can often produce unwanted side effects. They alter your body's ability to absorb protein and calcium which can create the need For a calcium supplement to compensate.

The ingredients in Acid Defense® however, contain naturally occurring alkalizing components such as calcium and magnesium that re-establish a balanced, healthy, system-wide pH. It is safe For daily usage with no known side effects.
