Fight Diabetes, Inflammation and Heart Disease With These 60 Alkaline Foods

January 23, 2019 By Mike Thurstone

The pH balance in our body is essential to block various health issues and function as it should. A balanced body has a slightly alkaline pH value, or about 7.4.

Jillian Levy, CHHC explains:

“Many doctors stress the importance of reducing acidity and increasing alkalinity with an alkaline diet because a balanced pH helps protect us from the inside out. Disease and disorder, they say, cannot take root in a body whose pH is in balance.

What is the meaning of “pH balance”? Do you know if your pH levels are off? Well, pH balance refers to a proper balance in the body between acidity and alkalinity.

Your body does a great job of keeping its pH balanced in most cases, but by eating an alkaline diet may help prevent unhealthy microbes and organisms from flourishing, tissues and organs from becoming damaged, minerals from being depleted, and your immune system from being compromised. “

The Journal of Environmental and Public Health published a 2012 review which stated:

“It is generally accepted that agricultural humans today have a diet poor in magnesium and potassium as well as fiber, and rich in saturated fat, simple sugars, sodium, and chloride as compared to the preagricultural period. This results in a diet that may induce metabolic acidosis which is mismatched to our genetically determined nutritional requirements. “

Nevertheless, the polluted environment, continuous stress, unhealthy lifestyle and dietary habits, all tend to make our body acidic, and inclined to various diseases and ailments.
