Is your body pH Balanced?

The pH of your internal fluids affects every cell in your body. Acicification can overwhelm your body.Proper pH balance is the foundation for optimal health.

Your body is alkaline by design. The fluids that make up 70% of your body must remain alkaline for you to experience optimal health. Your body is acidic by function. Every metabolic process that your body undergoes produces acid. Your body is always seeking to maintain proper pH balance-the balance between acid and alkaline.

When you become too acidic, your body becomes vulnerable to a whole host of health problems.Your body will go to such great lengths to maintain pH balance in the fluids that it will even create stress on cells, tissues, bones and organs in order to do so.

Chronic acidification will interrupt all cellular activities and functions -it interferes with life itself.When the pH of your body becomes too acidic, you may experience low energy, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches and pains, and even more serious disorders.

Your body becomes pH imbalanced and onverly acidic primarily as a result of three things: the ingestion of acids, the creation of acids, and the improper elimination of acids.

When you discover the magic of pH balance, you'll experience vibrant health and energy. When your body is pH balanced, it is full of vitality. You'll find that you have increased energy, metal clarify, and you'll even notice that your skin has regained that healthy glow. Simply put, a body in pH balance functions properly and operates optimally. The good news is that if you've suffered the negative impact of an overly acidic body, you can regain your health and you can regain balance. The process of re-establishing pH balance begins with proper diet and nutrition. This includes eating alkalizing foods (vegetable, low sugar fruits, etc.), hydrating properly (drinking plenty of alkaline, ionic, structured water), and integreating proper nutritional supplementation.

Proper hydration is the most crucial factor in establishing and maintaining proper pH. Since your body is 70% water, it is extremely important to constantly replenish your supply of it. Your body loses 2.5 liters of water every day just through normal bodily functions.

The QUALITY of the water that you drink is just as important as the QUANTITY of water that you drink. The water you put in your body must be able to prevent toxins and chemicals subtances from accumulation, thus preventing destructive influences on cells.

Water must also transport minerals and nutrients required for cell metabolism and remove any substances that can damage the cell. Ideally, the water you drink should have a pH between 9 and 10, and you should be drinking 3-4 liters of it daily.

In order to hydrate your body optimally, you need to drink water that is alkaline and ionized. Alkaline water helps to neutralize stored acid wastes. Once these acids are neutralized, they can then be removed by the body. Alkaline water containing ionic minerals also acts as a conductor of electrochemical activity from cell to cell.

There are plenty places on the internet you can find ionized/alkaline filters or natural products to help you get a balanced pH. I personally suggest this one:

Vibrant health and energy begins with a pH balance. Start changing your life now!

New research concludes:

In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.

Even mild dehydration will slow down one`s metabolism as much as 3 %.

One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a U-Washington study.

Lack of water is the number one trigger of daytime fatigue.

8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing ont the computer screen or on a printed page.

Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

If you care about healthful eating, chances are you`re getting enough protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. But you may be forgetting one of the most important items of all: water!

Water accounts for 60% of body weight and is vital for all body functions. It`s used to generate energy, propel nerve impulses and drive muscle contractions.

You cannot funciton at peak capacity without enough water. Yet one third of all Americans suffer from chronic dehydration.

Over time, even mild dehydration poses numerous health risks.

In conclusion: If you feel tired, stressed, your body might be dehydrated because the body needs to be constantly flushing out toxins and water is the mediator for this to happen. If you are having joint pain, might be dehydrated because the joints in order to function normally need synovial fluid that is based of water. If you are having back pain, you might be dehydrated because the tissue dries and get tighter. The tight muscles are mostly caused by dehydration and water helps the muscles be maleable and more flexible. If you are under medication and you are having too many side effects, the cause might be lack of water, because dehydration concentrates drugs in the body, effectively raising the doses and this increases the risk of side effects and toxicity in your body.

So, please... DRINK WATER! =0)
