There are many numbers out there that affect your life – your credit rating, good and bad cholesterol, your driving record, your weight, etc.  But did you know that there is another number that has a tremendous impact on your health?

That number is your pH level (potential hydrogen).

The body is largely made up of water, a medium that is biologically useful in allowing nutrients, oxygen and bio-chemicals to be transported from place to place.  This water-based medium can have either acid or alkaline properties which are measured by a graduated scale called pH, wherein 1.0 to 6.9 is considered acidic, 7.0 is neutral, and 7.1 to 14.0 is alkaline.  The lower the pH number, the greater the acidity, and the higher the pH number, the greater the alkalinity.

Having a balanced body pH is crucial to any healing or detoxification program and for preventing disease.  Most people in today’s society are acidic because of diet (most diets cause an unhealthy acid pH – in fact diet appears to be the major influence), sedentary lifestyle (or in some cases, over-exercising), stress, pollution and the accumulation of chemical and heavy metal toxins.

An imbalanced pH affects all cellular activity in the body, leading to the progression of most degenerative diseases including:

Cardiovascular and heart disease – like acid eating into a marble, a continually acid pH erodes and eats into cell wall membranes of the heart, arteries and veins

Cancer – cancerous cells grow well in acidic mediums.  Some doctors have begun experimenting with giving patients super alkalized water to stunt cancer cell growth.

Obesity  (weight gain) – an acid pH can directly cause immediate weight gain by causing erratic insulin production in the body.  When the body is flooded with insulin, it diligently converts every calorie it can to fat.

Diabetes – before the advent of synthetic insulin, buffering the system with base or alkaline powders treated diabetes.

Osteoporosis and osteoarthritis – an acidic body leaches calcium from the bones and teeth in a desperate attempt to balance itself.

Dangerous levels of cholesterol – the amount of cholesterol ingested has not been found to be a major factor in cholesterol plaque formation.  Rather, it is because an acid pH allows the binding of cholesterol with heavy metals and other cellular debris to form plaque.

Premature Aging – acidosis is thought to contribute to age-related problems such as eyesight and memory loss, wrinkling, age spots and dysfunctional hormone systems.
