Why pH is Crucial to Health?

It is an imbalance of acidity and alkalinity that allows unhealthy organisms to flourish, damages tissues and organs and compromises the immune system.

Did you know that the water fish swim in needs to be the correct pH in to live? Also, plants flourish when the soil is at the right pH level. Life only exists where there’s balance, and your body is totally regulated by pH!


Effects of acidity in the body:

What are the effects of acidity on health?

• Allergies, asthma and congestion
• Fatigue
• Frequent colds
• Headaches
• Inflammation
• Joint and muscle pain
• Skin problems
• Ulcers
• Weight gain

Over the long term, acidosis can lead to:

• Arthritis
CANCER
• Diabetes
• Fibromyalgia
• Heart disease
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Osteoporosis
• Stroke


What causes acidity in your body?

• Alcohol and drug use
• Antibiotic overuse
Artificial sweeteners
• Chronic stress
Declining nutrient levels in foods due to industrial farming
Low levels of fiber in the diet
• Lack of exercise
Excess animal meats in the diet (from non-grass fed sources)
Excess hormones from foods, health and beauty products and plastics
• Exposure to chemicals and radiation from household cleansers, building materials, computers, cell phones and microwaves
Food coloring and preservatives
• Over-exercise
Pesticides and herbicides
• Pollution
• Poor chewing and eating habits
Processed and refined foods
• Shallow breathing

As we can see from the list above, almost half of the causes are originated by poor nutrition. Even though there are many sources of acidity and toxicity in our environments, the biggest contributor to unbalanced pH is our diet.
Chances are, if you’re like most of us eating a modern diet, the balance in your food choices – between acid and alkaline foods – has flipped to just the opposite of what your body needs.

Muy útil tu información, Gracias por compartir. Yo soy fanática del limón.

Thanks for the knowledge shared...

What type of drug that make the body more acidic

Not going to drink soda from now . I consume more than 5 soda in single day !!

Too much soda hahaha... always we need to be in the right balance and be happy!

Nice information shared. I would like to add a thing which I have heard from a doctor. He told me that one should not eat too much lemon because it can affect the reproductive system as well.

Always that you eat too much of something... it's not healthy.
If you try to eat healthy food the bad effects could be much less than eating junk food.

I try my best every day to keep my body on the alkaline side. I have found it to be very difficult unless I drink lemon water a few times a day. Appreciate your post!

Thanks for your comment!
It's not easy nowadays to keep a good balance... lemon water help a lot! :)
