Alkaline-acid balance of the body
Homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant internal environment which is necessary for cells to function normally. Without the right body conditions, certain processes (eg osmosis) and proteins (eg enzymes) will not function properly.
Disease occurs when homeostasis is disrupted and it means that your body may have become slightly acidic. This means that you need to change your diet and lifestyle in order to obtain the necessary alkalinity in the body.
pH
The acid-base balance is essential for proper bodily function.
The body itself has its own mechanism to regulate the acid-base levels. However, improper diet, stress and lack of physical activity can cause too much acid to accumulate in certain places of the connective tissues which consist of accumulated salts.
This indicates chronic damage which is associated with numerous health problems. A research has found that large alkalinity in the blood prevents the formation and development of the existing CRA.
Furthermore, numerous studies have found that cancer cannot develop in alkaline environment as in an acid one, so the pH of the blood should be higher.
People should consume 75% alkaline foods and 25% acidic foods on daily basis.
What can cause acidity?
Salt overconsumption
Environmental pollution-ray
Acid rain that suppress the minerals in the lower layers of soil
Cutting, processing and cooking food
Drinking enough fluids
Alcohol, smoking
Lack of exercise, stress
External factors which lead to demineralization of the body- high temperatures and excessive sweating
Taking drugs, especially salicylates, which are an integral part of analgesics and tablets
The most important internal factors that lead the organism into acidity:
Wrong diet
Abdominal discomfort
Chronic kidney problems
Diabetes mellitus
Infection-fever
The normal and local lack of oxygen
Unbalanced cardiovascular system
Impaired alkaline-acid balance can cause:
Problems of the locomotorus system sore backs, osteoporosis, rheumatism
Ailments of the digestive system- gastritis, intestinal inflammation, cramps, disturbed intestinal flora
Chronic fatigue, drowsiness, lack of energy
Depression, excessive nervousness
Heart disease
Kidney imbalance
Gout
Headache, migraines
Caries, periodontitis
Reduction in endurance and muscle rigidity
Low threshold of pain-pain intolerance
Therefore, you need to neutralize the acidity in your body. Sugar takes calcium during decomposition, so people who consume too much sugar often are calcium deficient. Hyperacidity leads to lack of minerals in the body, including calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc and others.
Calcium plays an essential role in bone and teeth health and its deficiency can lead to caries and weak bones which are due to excess acid and lack of alkalinity in the body.
It is recommended that you avoid acidic foods and consume more alkaline foods which can improve the function of your digestive system.
The digestive system is a complex mechanism with series of chemical reactions in which acid plays very important role. Acid enters the body through different foods, but it is also produced by the stomach, liver and pancreas.
Therefore, your digestive system should have balanced pH.
You should consume alkaline water generated from ionization. Also, you should eat a healthy diet, be more physically active and avoid processed foods.
