What box? Are you testing saliva or urine? Have you consulted any books that are written about this?

Without getting into the accuracy of your pH measurements, it's worth pointing out that (dental health issues notwithstanding) Kombucha is rather acid and offers additional health benefits. Do NOT overdo it on Kombucha, though, as it can lead to dangerous levels of acidity if over-consumed.

Wow, I am jelous! My base saliva is still 5.5 in the morning before any food or drink. That is base ph. between meals sometimes i am 7.5, but that doesn't mean much yet. Are you 8 in the morning before anything goes to your mouth? Then tell me how your diet looks like? because I am trying to get rid of acidity. As for too much alalinity - eat more nuts and seeds and sweet fruit.

this was urine tested in morn and evening..its meant to be just eventing test but...*grin* i did it last night and it was where it was meant to be.i feeeel that the high reading is due to huge amounts of greens been eaten mostly in green smoothies and a green juice..so greenin.. thats my advice to you!
