A member asked:
Renal profie lab test shows ph --7.49 (normal range 7.38-7.44) can one use antacids or ppis to solve digestive issues in such a state?or can it lead to problem?

I think u r talking about a urine pH. Has nothing to do with gastric issues. Depends on what you eat and drink. Wikipedia has good discussion of this.
