The pH of the human body lies in a tight range between 7.35-7.45, ... Different organs function at their optimal level of pH. For example, the enzyme pepsin requires low pH to act and break down ...

This method differs from that of Mirsky et al. 2 in that acidification is accomplished without the use of a pH meter, considerably simplifying the procedure for routine use. The pH for digestion ...

According to Dr. Koufman, however, alkaline water can benefit people who suffer from acid reflux because, as her published research has found, the stomach enzyme pepsin dies at pH 8. Pepsin is ...

It should be noted that, because pepsin is determined after complete activation of pepsinogen and at a buffered pH of 4.9, the values obtained are independent of gastric acidity.

Clara’s 100% animal-free pepsin is developed by isolating the DNA sequence that encodes for the exact same protein, and using fermenters and yeast instead of factory farms and animals to create ...
