A member asked:
My urine ph has dropped from 7.0 to 5.5, is this normal. (shortness of breath and palpitations as well)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Urine pH measures urine acidity and ranges from 5 to 7. Animal protein is the major source of acid in diet and will result in low urine pH. Vegetarians usually have U pH in higher range. Your symptoms suggest anxiety/hyperventilation which raise blood pH, and hence U pH.
