The Principles of Acid & Alkaline

Just as our normal body temperature is 98.6, there are other measures of a normal condition of homeostasis within the body. The bodies levels of sugar, oxygen, and carbon dioxide within the blood must always be stable, and the pH (the balance of acid and alkaline) of bodily fluids, including our blood, should be 7.4, slightly alkaline.  Amazon Thunder Acai is highly alkaline and works to lower your body's acid level and balance your ph.

Properly balanced body chemistry makeup pH is vital to our immune health and disease prevention and correction. the human body has alkaline parts (like the blood) and acid parts (like the inside of the stomach), but when we let our overall body chemistry become over-acid, we open ourselves up to all kinds of health dilemas such as arthritis and other types of diseases. A healthy functioning body keeps large alkaline reserves to meet the demands of too many acid-producing foods. When these are depleted beyond a 3:1 ratio, health can be seriously hampered.

The knowledge of how to keep ones body in a slightly alkaline state is vital to restoring and maintaining optimum health. Without this knowledge and application you can't maintain the proper pH for your body to function how it was designed to function and for the living ecosystem within you to survive.

An acid/alkaline imbalance in your body leaning towards too much acidity allows problems to create themselves such as yeast, viruses, cancer cells, and various other parasites that thrive in a highly acidic environment. Acidity also leads to disease and other conditions such as chronic fatigue, arthritis, and allergies.

The typical American diet is high in acidic foods that cause our bodies to become overly acidic. It is no wonder, then, that these serious conditions are becoming more prevalent among people today. If your one who has an acidic condition from consuming an acid-forming diet, your body constantly is trying to return to an alkaline state by calling on your stored reserves of alkaline minerals: sodium, calcium, potassium and magnesium. If you continue eating foods that are highly acid-forming, you leach even more alkaline minerals from your body, creating a mineral deficiency that becomes severe over time and leads to disease and the above mentioned health problems.

 

Approximately 20% of the foods at each meal should be acidic based, and approximately 80% should be alkaline-based.

Common Causes of an Over Acid Body:

Mental stress and tension are also other leading causes of highly acidic bodies (stress creates acid in the body!); over-eating is also a cause and leads to; kidney, liver or adrenal malfunction; poor diet with excess acid-forming foods, such as caffeine, fried foods, tobacco, or sweets. Acidosis can often be related to or caused by arthritis, diabetes or borderline diabetes.
 

Acid/Alkaline Dietary Tips:

It is quite obvious that to overcome an acidic condition, we need to eat alkaline-forming foods. There are several good ways to jumpstart this process and make the overall long-term diet more successful.
 

• Once we begin to rid ourselves of excessive acidity and our body starts balancing itself out, it is easy to follow a more relaxed dietary plan to keep our acid/alkalinity in the proper balance. All acid-forming foods are not bad. On the contrary, some acid-forming foods are necessary for nutritional value and for proper pH balance.

• Signs & Symptoms of an over-acid body: Frequent skin eruptions that don’t go away; sunken eyes with darkness around the eyes; rheumatoid arthritis ; burning, foul-smelling stools and anal itching; chronic poor digestion; latent ulcers or ulcer flare-ups, bad breath and body odor; alternating constipation and diarrhea; insomnia; water retention; excessively low blood pressure, frequent migraine headaches.
