The Chemistry of Milk and Heartburn. First, we need to look at any path of action that milk may be able to use in order to reduce heartburn. The first step is to look at exactly what is in milk itself. Milk is actually a weak acid, with a standard pH of 6.7 (anything between 0-7 on the pH scale is considered an acid).
Chaparral, Santa Ynez Mountains, near Santa Barbara, California. Chaparral is a shrubland or heathland plant community found primarily in the U.S. state of California and in the northern portion of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico.
Some examples of plants in the chaparral are toyon, chamise, poison oak, scrub oak, Yucca and other shrubs, trees and cacti. The maquis contains plants such as myrtle, hawthorn, and broom. The Australian mallee is more open than these other types of chaparral and consists mainly of dwarf eucalyptus trees.
