Salmonella should not even be an issue because our stomach is designed to kill this pathogen by nature. This pathogen and several others can only survive at a pH of very near to 7which is neutral. Our stomach is supposed to be at pH 2 or below. Because of poor diet and lack of HCL our gut pH gets to high. Often times this creates acid reflux resulting in the consumption of antacids, which in turn results in a stomach acid of apx. 7, which results in an environment that supports salmonella and other pathogens.
