Measure gastric acidity

Stomach acid or, in scientific terms, hydrochloric acid, is essential for the proper functioning of the digestive system. Low stomach acidity can lead to incomplete digestion of food, accompanied by problems with gas, bloating, belching, diarrhea, or constipation. A fluctuation in the acidity level of the stomach or vagina allows candida to proliferate. An adequate level of stomach acid also protects the digestive system against bacteria, yeasts and parasites. An easy way to get a feel for your stomach acid level is to look at your fingernails. Vertical streaks are a characteristic sign of low gastric acidity.
