Foods That Create Acid in the Stomach

Certain foods are more acidic than others. If you suffer from acidosis, foods that create acid in the stomach should be avoided. Too much acid in the system can lead to acidosis, marked by fatigue and headaches. Here is a list of the top acid producing foods:

Corn

• Corn has the most acid out of any food, and it can create a very acidic stomach.

Meat

• Eating too much meat can cause acidosis. Eat meat in moderation, or you should eliminate it from you diet if it's a serious concern.

Beans

• Beans may be high in fiber, but they are very acid forming in your stomach.

Fish

• Fish are surprisingly high in acid, and eating fish may irritate the stomach and lead to acidosis if done too frequently.

Coffee

• Coffee can cause acid to form in the stomach and can lead to acidosis. People who have acidosis, or are following a low-acid diet, should avoid drinking coffee.
