The Association Between Dietary Acid Load and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. [PDF]
Based on the findings of this systematic review, higher dietary acid load (assessed by PRAL and NEAP scores) is significantly associated with an increased risk of non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adults. The primary mechanisms underlying this relationship appear to be the induction of insulin resistance, systemic inflammation, and ...

The German LAKE-score reliably predicts urinary and dietary potential renal acid load: a three-armed translational study [PDF]
Background Evidence supports kidney injury from a high potential renal acid load (PRAL). Existing predictive equations to estimate the PRAL have important limitations and require either a 24-h urine collection or the estimation of an individual’s ...

Association of Diet Quality, Dietary Acid Load, and Dietary Antioxidant Index With Cardiometabolic and NAFLD Risk Factors Among Patients With Metabolic Syndrome: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
This cross‐sectional study of 420 patients with metabolic syndrome found that higher Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI) and Dietary Antioxidant Index (DAI) scores were associated with improved lipid profiles, lower liver enzymes, and reduced non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) risk indices.

Dietary Acid Load Across Vegans, Lacto-Ovo-Vegetarians, Fish-Eaters, and Meat-Eaters, and Its Association with Body Mass Index: A Secondary Analysis from an Italian Survey (The INVITA Study) [PDF]
Diet represents a key determinant of the body’s acid–base balance because foods are metabolized into non-volatile acids or bases. An increase in dietary acid load can elicit low-grade metabolic acidosis, which has been associated with systemic ...

Increased dietary acid load May elevate the risk of coronary artery disease severity: Findings from a cross-sectional study [PDF]
Background: Chronic low-grade metabolic acidosis appears to play a role in the development of chronic disorders. This study aims to examine the relationship between Potential Renal Acid Load (PRAL) and Net Endogenous Acid Production (NEAP) and the risk ...

The Potential Renal Acid Load of Edible Marine and Land Snails [PDF]
Edible snails, such as the giant West African land snail (Archachatina marginata), are an important protein source in many African countries. The potential renal acid load (PRAL), an estimate of the capability of a food to alter net endogenous acid or ...
