Thanks for this, MrsD. Something else for me to investigate regarding acidosis.
I had an episode last Sunday when I had the audacity to drink two beers while watching a football game with friends. My legs and feet again started their cramping thing which I had previously thought was tied to salt intake. I guzzled two big glasses of water, and it subsided. In thinking about it, I had not been drinking my normal amount of water that day, but had two big mugs of coffee and then two beers. I assumed it was just dehydration.
I seem to be finding that both alcohol and caffeine can alter the acidity of your blood.
Am putting a couple of links here for safe keeping.
