Worth saving.
To be healthy and able to prevent diseases, our body should be a little bit alkaline.
However, many factors, like the environment, processed foods, chemicals and stress, influence our body's internal condition and make it more acidic (if not highly acidic).
This is a serious issue since it leads to health complications; including fatigue, digestive issues and weight gain. Moreover, if not balanced on time, this environment could pollute healthy cells and they too shall become toxic. Over time, they can even become cancerous.
The pH scale goes from 0(the most acidic) to 14 (the most alkaline). 7 is therefore neutral, and our bodies are designed to thrive in a slightly alkaline environment of about 7.4.
Our body's organs function on different pH levels though. For instance, the pH of the digestive tract can vary quite a lot, from 1.5-7.0, and is influenced by many factors, but mostly by diet.
Our saliva is more acidic in order for it to be able to help the digestion of food, and its pH ranges from 6.5-7.0 normally). On the other hand, the typical pH value of the skin is 5.
Since 1931, when Dr. Otto Warburg unearthed the truth that won him the Nobel Prize in Physiology/Medicine, researchers have constantly struggled to determine the ph value of different foods.
Dr. Otto Warburg’s discovery revealed that 90-95% of all cancers occur as a result of an acidic environment. Moreover, he found that cancer cells simply cannot survive in an alkaline environment, when the pH is around 7.36.
As he stated a century ago, there is a relation not only between acidosis (over-acidity) and the formation of cancer, but with almost every other chronic disease too; such as heart disease, diabetes and osteoporosis.
Therefore, it is of vital importance to recognize when your body is too acidic. The first thing you can do, is a saliva test using a regular pH paper or by paying attention to the following symptoms;
- Frequent shortness of breath
- Muscle pain or cramps after walking short distances
- Constant fatigue
As soon as your pH level drops, your body begins to try regulate itself naturally (to create homeostasis) by holding and storing some excessively acidic substances in your organs, including your liver, lungs and kidneys.
Thus, it can keep up an optimal pH of between 7.35-7.45. However, these acidic substances will eventually start to strike the healthy cells, causing them to be toxic, damaged and sick. Over time, if this issue is not solved, these cells can multiply and grow beyond control. Spreading to other body parts or organs. In short, they will metastasize.
As we mentioned previously, one of the major causes for chronic acidosis is our modern diet, which is rich in sugar, caffeine, highly- processed foods and alcohol. These foods are also grown with the employment of numerous additives, pesticides and growth hormones, which are themselves also acidic. Therefore, it is fairly obvious that we need to make certain changes in our diet in order to preserve the health of our body. Furthermore, you can also actually detox successfully by consuming alkaline water.
The human body is roughly 70% water, so properly prepared alkaline water will lead to homeostasis.
Alkaline water- recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon of Himalayan salt (
- 1 organic lemon
- 2 liters of purified water (it’s good to have an osmosis filter)
- 1 large glass jar (plastic has chemicals and impurities that are acidic to your body).
Method of preparation:
Pour the water in the glass. Cut the lemon in slices and add it to the water. Add the Himalayan salt. Cover the glass and leave it at room temperature for 12-24 hours.
Use:
For best results, consume the alkaline water first thing in the morning before you start your day or eat anything. Drink 3 glasses of the alkaline water on an empty stomach. You can also consume it during the day.
The effects are inevitable! Over some time, you will start feeling different and full of energy. Furthermore, your skin will be clear and radiant, and you will have more concentration and your brain will be more alert.
If you combine the alkaline water with a healthy diet (free of sugar, additives, toxins and processed food), regular exercise and make a habit to avoid stress, you will transform your life and become a stronger person overall!
