Are You Acid Or Alkaline?

Are You Acid or Alkaline?What is your PH level?Many of us have never even heard of such an expression. Acid? Alkaline? What's a PH Level? The closest most of us can evenrelate to any of these terms is the hair commercials where the young lady says, “I love my hair my PH is Great” or Acid refluxwith Tums or Alka-Seltzer. All we know is that her hair looked great, and when I took the Tums or Alka-Seltzer I felt a whole lotbetter. So what’s up with this PH thing? I’m so glad you asked young “grass hopper”, let’s break it down and get scientific for afew minutes. PH represents (Potential of Hydrogen) and is used to measure the presence of Oxygen vs. lack of Oxygen in state. Inthe universe of molecules, Hydrogen is the only molecule that has a -1 and 1 ion charge, so it represents always trying tobalance, the foundation of Naturopathy the science of balancing and going with the body not against. Naturopathy feeds the bodyso that the body may in turn heal itself. With all this said and done our bodies and every organ has a PH level that can usually bemeasured on a scale of 4.0 to 14.0 respectfully.The body’s goal is to balance the rate of Acid (lack of oxygen) and Alkaline (oxygen) at 80% Alkaline vs. 20% Acid. If notbalanced properly on the cellular level, the cells lose oxygen and start to break down and they loose their form. Cells collapse dueto dehydration, malnutrition, and some even form into cancerous cells or sickles as in sickle cell disease. This state is calledAcidosis the progenitor of all chronic diseases. Though relatively uncommon the body can also have too much Alkaline usually9.0 and higher where the chronic conditions and symptoms of Acid are the same. This state is called Alkalosis. Unbalanced PHcauses the body to borrow and rob minerals, including calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium from vital organs and bones tobuffer the acid and safely remove it from the body. This process can weaken these organs and bones over time.All chronic diseases live in this acidic environment therefore your goal is to maintain a proper PH level between (6.57.5) which is considered to be neutral by utilizing PH testing strips for monitoring. Most testing strips can be purchasedat any whole foods or herbal store and is tested through saliva and urine which utilizes a colored matrix chart foranalysis. Testing should take place 2 hours before or 2 hours after a meal. There is a most important and profound andnatural Phenomenon to remember about PH balance that you must understand CANCER, BACTERIA, FUNGUS,MOLD, VIRUSES, PARASITES and all toxins CANNOT LIVE IN AN ALL ALKALINE STATE. So what’syour goal? Eat more Alkalizing foods and less Acid forming foods. Adopt a more Plant based diet and your body hasno choice but to repair itself. The reason acidosis is more common in our society is mostly due to the typical Americandiet, which is far too high in acid-producing animal products like meat, eggs and dairy, and far too low in alkalineproducing foods like fresh vegetables. Additionally, we eat acid-producing processed foods like white flour and sugarand drink acid-producing beverages like coffee and soft drinks. We use too many drugs, which are acid-forming; andwe use artificial chemical sweeteners which are extremely acid-forming. One of the best things we can do to correct anoverly-acid body is to clean up the diet and lifestyle.
