Random Question Time, Topic: Alcohol, Acids, Bases

Is alcohol an acid or base?

Is 0% alcohol mouthwash an acid or base?

Most toothpaste seems like a base.

Saliva is a base.

The stomach has acids.

So, at what point does the intestinal tube turn from base to acid?

Are bodily wastes neutral?

If not a paper litmus test, then what test do you use to test solids in order to determine if they are bases or acids.

Are there solid acids?

You just determine acids and bases mainly from electron ratios, right?

So, I guess that means you can manufacture any phase of bases and acids.

How about a structure that is both a base and acid?

Maybe attribute can change depending on how light shines on it, or the environmental temperature, near a magnetic field, or turned upside down?

Maybe it would be like the Plum pudding model that used to describe the electron/atoms/molecules?

Maybe you could make quantum effects at a larger, naked-eye level?

Imagine quantum alcohol, you might simultaneously be drinking it and not drinking it. Maybe the visible/tasteful quantum particles that you drink are tied to more "invisible" particles in the bottle. And, it is theoretically possible to have a bottle that would never finish. Though, the chances are close to infinitesimally small, there is still a chance. ;)

I think that was a full circle.

Question: Urine Test (Urinalysis)

In order to help liquid waste flow from the bladder, is it better to drink cold water to contract the bladder to make it smaller? Or drink warm water to possibly loosen things up?

What is the most optimal food form?

Is the pill the most optimal food form? Something that is small and "easily" swallowed.

Or, is the most optimal food form something like mashed potatoes? They take up a lot of space, but they are easy to swallow also and more filling.

Or, should we be using our teeth more often? Quoting: "Use them or lose them"

Then, something like current-day fruits would be the most optimal form of food because they are filling, we are required to use teeth for the most part, and easy to swallow after chewing.

Another possible food form is something like cereal. It takes on the form of many pills lumped together. The cereal food form is just like the fruit food form except less easy to swallow after chewing. This would either cut up our digestive tract or make it stronger. I'm not sure yet.

Getting to the larger food forms would be the meat category of food. It is like the fruit form except that it requires more muscles to tear the meat into smaller pieces and a lot more chewing to consume it easily. This has the added benefit of making our heads a bit stronger.

But, completely different than all of the above is liquids. I guess, it is most related to the pill form in the way it is consumed (just swallowing). This benefit is that is quick for our quick/instant/now society, it is a little easier to consume than pills for everybody, and it is more filling so that we have better knowledge on when to stop consuming.

This everything liquid-form has already begun to take place. There is now vitamin water, vegetable juice, protein shakes, milkshakes, high-sugar carbonated drinks (soda/pop), injections, and in science you drink a substance that is absorbed in your body so that it helps doctors diagnose your symptoms.

ps - This post originally was just going to be the question, but it was fun creating and walking through these different scenarios made up on the spot.
