How To Avoid Cancer, Heart Problems, Diabetes, Asthma Etc. Part Two Of Three

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

In this segment we will go through 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 inform us that our bodies function best with a blood pH amount of 7. 4 actually 7. 365 The physical body does everything it could to keep up this blood pH at 7. 4. Since most people have little knowing of how a 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 bottled water to avoid pollutants in our normal water.

The problem is that many of that 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 water in bottles is spring water and this might have a pH of 7. 2 to 7. {6} which is alkaline and much better for the bodies. The problem here is that water could be the universal solvent and thus plastic containers leach a poisonous chemical into the water. There is little indication how long the water has been sitting on the shelf with no method to tell just how much leaching has taken place!

Water is very important to your bodies since fluids take into account about 70% of our tissues. Dehydration is really a problem for most, partly because we drink plenty of caffeinated drinks and caffeine is a diuretic which removes more fluid from the system than is ingested. Without enough fluids inthe body, blood becomes thicker making one’s heart work harder to pump it round the system–the skin becomes more wrinkled– dried up a lot more than it should–elimination becomes more challenging constipation so toxins are generally re-absorbed into the system instead of being removed.

There are other drinks such as alcohol, beer, colas, pop etc. which are acid. Soda pop containing phosphoric acid causes the fizz may be as lower in pH as 2. {5}. It has been said that the body intelligence will even store excess acid in our fat tissues to avoid harm to the liver and kidneys. Being overweight?

Another part of which most are unaware, is that acid-forming foods are consumed excessively. It’s been suggested that up to 80% of our food consumption should be alkaline-forming foods and only 20% acid. That indicates which our diet should include things like bran, barley, buckwheat, cornmeal, millet, oats, brown rice, rye criso, rye bread, and wheat germ, as opposed to wheat 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 tend to be alkaline while beef, hamburger, hot dogs, pork, salmon, sardines, sausage fall under the acid range. Most fresh fruits and vegetables tend to be alkaline but any commercial canned vegetables and fruit tend to be acid.

So we could see that eating has its hazards and care must prevent the difficult areas. One could take the attitude this is too complicated, and it’s really a bit overwhelming, but with a little care you can develop a sensing which is why foods work. For example when facing a buffet and there are so many choices– many of them are o. k. — you are able to sense what’s effective with a little practice.

There are several simple rules like avoid commercial canned fruits and vegetables and use fresh whenever you can. Should you choose your personal canning don’t overload with sugar. A lot more could be said on these points but hopefully these guidelines could be beneficial to you. There is a many more info available on every one of these subjects.

This segment has emphasized the value of acid/alkaline balance and the requirement to be aware to some degree of what we eat and drink and how it affects our health. Part three will consider the human body from the cellular, electrical level and what you can do easily to utilize your body processes.
