Humans have the most acidic stomach (1.5 ph) of any animal on planet Earth.

Why would eating foods that are acidic cause a problem, when they are broken down by the hydrochloric acid and pepsin in the stomach before they are processed by the body?

No other animal on the planet has a greater ability to break down meat to get at the nutrients within.
