Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Net acid excretion (NEA) analitically determined by means of the titratable acid (TA) of the ammonium (NH4+) and bicarbonate (HCO3-) in the urine (NEA = TA + NH4+ – HCO3-) at the beginning and at the end of the intervention

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- parameters of the bone turnover (osteocalcin, carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks (CTX) in EDTA blood, amino-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP) at the beginning and and the end of the intervention - potential renal acid load (PRAL) of different mineral waters and the consumed food using valid food questionnaires
