The
pH miracle diet is a new way to look at how you eat. By addressing each food,
beverage, supplement, and additive by it’s acidic or alkaline signature a
balance can be negotiated. Our bodies work according to the pH scale, which
works on a range of 1 to 14. A ranking of 1 on this scale denotes a high level
of acid while a ranking of 14 indicates that there is a high concentration of
alkaline present. A ranking of 7 on the pH scale represents neutrality in pH.
The blood in the human bloodstream regulates at the level of 7.35, which is
mildly alkaline. The pH miracle diet advocates keeping the intake of food into
your body in line with this optimum level. The method of implementation is
quite simple, by coordinating an eating planned structured around a
comprehensive list of foods, and supplements you can create an effective
strategy to lower acidity in your body.
Alkaline
intake will counter act this stored acidity by being metabolized and
neutralizing them at the source. With balance as the benchmark for a workable
health plan; constant monitoring of the body’s pH levels is essential. Saliva
pH test strips with a base range of 4.5 to 8.5 will allow for accurate readings
that can assist you in making the proper adjustments to your diet. Even with
all of this knowledge and action there are outside influences that will affect
your body’s acid production. These outside factors will greatly determine how
you will implement the alkalizing foods and supplements. The most significant
of these external factors will be stress.
Stress
is ubiquitous, it is everywhere and it affects everyone. This universal problem
has a very traumatic effect on your body. The body works overtime to combat
stress that in turn creates more stress. This vicious cycle is propagated by an
increase in acid production. As stated previously, acid is a detriment to your
body. When the body is overly acidic it does not run well, on the cellular
level, the body cannot maintain the immune system. The circulation is adversely
affected with the heart having to compensate by working harder.
With the heart beating at a higher rate to push this sticky blood through the bloodstream many of these sticky cell clumps break free from the path and attach themselves to the arterial walls creating further slowdowns in the circulation. Your body needs blood to function if the blood reaching the cells and organs are of poor quality this can have serious repercussions. Stress is an acid-producing killer.

There
are many techniques in addition to diet that can help in your quest for a
balanced pH level. Getting the adequate rest is always the best way to achieve
stress relief, as well as meditation which can be two to three times more
restful and rejuvenating than actual sleep. Limiting the intake of caffeine and
other stimulants also works toward lowering stress in the body by removing
these narcotics from the equation. At the heart of stress reduction is eating
more foods that are alkaline in nature that will neutralize the acid waste in
the body. Exercising is by far the most effective way to receive direct stress
relief, and will also help reduce the fat stores of the body where acid waste
inhabits in abundance.
