pH - A measure of how acidic or basic a substance or solution is. The pH is measured on a scale from 0 to 14. On this scale, a pH of 7 is neutral, meaning neither acidic nor basic. A pH less than 7 means it's more acidic, and a pH greater than 7 means it's more basic. In medicine, correct pH levels in blood and other body fluids are important for the body to function as it should
