In part one we examined one of the most detrimental factors to good health– the overgrowth of Candidiasis, a fungal yeast that produces seventy-nine different antigens poisons to the body and impairs immune function in addition to disrupting most of the other important human body functions.

In this segment we will consider the pH factor and its importance in body chemistry. pH is hydrogen potential and a reading of 7. 0 is neutral while an increased reading indicates alkalinity and below 7. 0 indicates acidity.

Scientists tell us our bodies function best with a blood pH amount of 7. 4 actually 7. 365 The physical human body does everything it can to keep this blood pH at 7. 4. Since most people have little knowing of the way the human body functions and how to cooperate with those functions we unwittingly eat, drink and act inappropriately. Sometimes we make an effort to make a move great for ourselves e. g. drink water in bottles to avoid pollutants in our normal water.

The problem is that many of the water is processed by reverse osmosis water filtration or distillation and these have a pH of around {6}. {6} to {6}. 8 i. e. acid because all of the minerals which affect pH have been removed. A number of the bottled water is spring water and this could have a pH of 7. 2 to 7. {6} that is alkaline and much better for our bodies. The problem here’s that water may be the universal solvent and so plastic bottles leach a poisonous chemical into the water. There was little indication how long the water has been sitting on the shelf no way to tell just how much leaching has taken place!

Water is vital to your bodies since fluids take into account about 70% of our tissues. Dehydration is really a problem for most, partly because we drink a lot of caffeinated drinks and caffeine is a diuretic which removes more fluid from the system than is ingested. Without enough fluids inthe human body, blood becomes thicker making the center work harder to pump it around the system–the skin becomes more wrinkled– dry out a lot more than it should–elimination becomes more difficult constipation so toxins tend to be re-absorbed in to the system rather than being removed.

There are other drinks such as alcohol, beer, colas, soda pop etc. which are acid. Soda containing phosphoric acid causes the fizz could be as low in pH as 2. {5}. It is often said that the body intelligence will store excess acid in our fat tissues to avoid damage to the liver and kidneys. Being obese?

Another aspect of which many are unaware, is that acid-forming foods are consumed excessively. It is often suggested that around 80% of our food consumption should be alkaline-forming foods and only 20% acid. That indicates that our diet should include stuff like bran, barley, buckwheat, cornmeal, millet, oats, brown rice, rye criso, rye bread, and wheat germ, rather than wheat services and products such as cakes, crackers, macaroni, noodles, pies and pastry, spaghetti, wheat breads and wheat cereals. Another example relates to flesh foods. Some foods like chicken, fish, lamb, liver, lobster, turkey, veal, shrimp, crab meat, and trout are generally alkaline while beef, hamburger, hot dogs, pork, salmon, sardines, sausage fall under the acid range. Most fresh fruits and vegetables are generally alkaline but any commercial canned vegetables and fruit tend to be acid.

So we can see that eating has its hazards and care must prevent the difficult areas. One could simply take the attitude that this is too complicated, and it’s rather a bit overwhelming, but with a little care it’s possible to create a sensing for which foods are appropriate. As an example when facing a buffet and you can find so many choices– many of them are o. k. — you are able to sense what’s effective with a little practice.

There are some simple rules like avoid commercial canned fruits and vegetables and use fresh whenever you can. Should you your own canning don’t overload with sugar. A lot more could be said on these points but hopefully these guidelines may be useful to you. There’s a lot more info available on each one of these subjects.

This segment has emphasized the importance of acid/alkaline balance and the requirement to bear in mind to some degree of what we eat and drink and how it affects our overall health. Part three will look at the human body from the cellular, electrical level and what you can do easily to utilize the body processes.
