Well, you have to remember that when you take the Neutralizer, it will cause the body to SHED acids, so of course your urine won't be 6.2 or above where it ought to be for a few weeks or so! :)
If we have illness, there's a TON of acid that needs to be shed from each and every cell and lymph. Give it time. Let the test strips tell you how much MORE neutralizer you can take! If you're constantly testing below 5.8, then add another ounce to your water! :)
