Is coffee acidity bad for you?

Research shows that close to 34 combinations of natural acids are present in coffee similar to in oranges, apples, and vinegar.

With the presence of antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins, coffee beans are inherently acidic.

But, each body reacts differently to the natural acids when we drink coffee.

Some feel discomfort. Some experience a burning sensation is similar to heartburn and acid reflux. Those with weakened or thinning tooth enamel tend to develop tooth decay when drinking coffee.

Though such issues occur, it’s not necessarily a direct correlation to coffee. Coffee does not cause or result in acid reflux or tooth decay. Instead, those with existing conditions often have a negative body reaction to coffee.

Coffee isn’t all that acidic anyway. An average black coffee has a pH of about 5, which is similar to carrots, and the most acidic coffees have a pH of around 4.7, or about the same as a banana.

About US | OCM Profile

OCM (OnCoffeeMakers.com) was started in 2007 with the first webpage about coffee machines. And for a number of years, we focused on helping people find their desired coffee machine (we still are helping folks with that! So, if you are looking for coffee machines for office or restaurants - check out the link). 

In 2010, we started getting enquiries on restaurant marketing and we start to help food and beverage brands with their marketing. Below are campaigns and events that we have done over the years:
