Weight Loss Is Simple With pH Balance
By Maraline Krey
An imbalanced body pH (being too acidic) may be at the root of many common symptoms, chronic symptoms and what we know as dis-ease, Symptoms or chronic symptoms may include cold hands and feet, constipation, digestive issues, sleeping issues, weight issues, heartburn, headaches, fatigue, allergies, and the list goes on from symptoms to chronic symptoms, through diagnosis and dis-ease.
In its natural state, the body is slightly alkaline, or acid by function, alkaline by design, and in a pH balanced state we have energy, a trim and fit body, and a good outlook. As children we are natural alkaline producers (meaning we have a bank of alkalinity to diffuse acid) however processed foods, hard to digest foods, acidic food and drink, etc. make it increasingly difficult not only for adults but in today's environment, children are expressing symptoms of acidity.
Bottom line is water environment, your body fluid (body 70% water, blood approx. 96% water) is your cellular environment, similar to fish in a fish tank, and when the environment is acidic, the cellular activity is affected and we express symptoms, when it is more acidic we express chronic symptoms, and very acidic we express organ issues or a diagnosis. The common phrase is when the fish are sick you clean the water.
Generally we should have enough alkalinity to neutralize incoming or body made acid. When we don't our body will defend itself against the acid, our body's soldiers (fat cells) will absorb it, cholesterol will protect the arteries from being burned or nicked from acid or acid crystals, even our organs will form cholesterol stones.
As we embrace a pH lifestyle and begin to balance our pH our bank account of alkalinity grows again, and we may see symptoms like allergies, heartburn, blood pressure, and other symptoms, as well as weight issues begin to resolve themselves.
It is interesting, that along with other pH gurus, Dr. Robert O. Young has said that fat is not a food issue, it is an acid issue, and he's also been known to say that you should thank your fat, it has saved your life.
In that vein, if our fat cells act as the body's soldiers, absorbing excess acid/toxins in the body in an effort to protect our organs, then it makes sense as we move into pH balance through hydration and cellular nutrition, our fat cells will shrink by releasing the toxins/acids.
SuperGreens with Prime pH is my green drink of choice and one of the quickest ways I know to pH balance. Drinking SuperGreens green drink with companion product, Prime pH, provides concentrated cellular nutrition and hydration at a higher pH level, which works to exchange your water and feed your cells. Adding fresh lemon and lime, good cold pressed oils, plus Omega 3-6-9 oils, and making dinner your healthiest meal, will all work together for you.
As individuals we need to remember the "what goes in is what you've got" theory whether we are talking abut gasoline and cars, or nutrition and humans, and then apply it. When we look at the nutrition available in most main stream markets, the meat and poultry industry, and look at the reports of our city water, we know it's up to us to learn what we can do the best we can for ourselves and our families.
It's interesting to read statistics about being
Obesity
From MayoClinic 05/09
Special to CNN
Do you weigh more than you should? If so, you're like the two-thirds of American adults who are overweight. (And) About one in three American adults is considered to be obese. And childhood obesity is at an all-time high....Obesity involves having an abnormally high proportion of body fat. Doctors define obesity as having a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher and overweight as having a BMI of 25 or higher.
The National Center for Health statistics has been tracking America's obesity problem for over four decades. The following statistics support the growing concern regarding the obesity problem in America.
-- Between 1962 and the year 2000, the number of obese Americans grew from 13% to an alarming 31% of the population.
-- 63% of Americans are overweight with a Body Mass Index (BMI) in excess of 25.0.
-- 31% are obese with a BMI in excess of 30.0.
-- Childhood obesity in the United States has more than tripled in the past two decades.
-- According to the U.S. Surgeon General report obesity is responsible for 300,000 deaths every year. Jan. 2004
How to test body pH
One of the easiest ways to test your pH is to use pH test strips. The best we've found is pHydrion, they are the leaders in pH strips for all reasons, including body pH, food pH, etc, and are considered to be the most reliable. pH strips come with a pH color chart so you can easily test your body fluid and match it to the chart.
Saliva pH 7.365, Urine pH 6.8
We have found the easiest and most accurate way to test your pH is to use your first morning saliva, before you brush, eat, drink or think. The reason is two fold, the saliva in your mouth changes if you think about food, brush your teeth, or drink, however first thing upon rising it is a true reflection of your body fluid. My suggestion is to test your pH over several "normal" days, take an average and that will become your starting point. Then test every few days to determine your improvement.
Urine is output so it's going to be a little more acidic, the challenge in testing urine comes in because you need to do it several times a day and average for each day, then take the daily average times your test period of a week or so, and determine an average. This is a little more cumbersome than testing saliva, and not necessarily more accurate.
