Blood contains large amounts of carbonic acid, a weak acid, and bicarbonate, a base. Together they help maintain the bloods pH at 7.4. If blood pH falls below 6.8 or rises above 7.8, one can become sick or die. The bicarbonate neutralizes excess acids in the blood while the carbonic acid neutralizes excess bases.
