The Basics About Alkalinity verses Acidity

Posted on by
Reply

The body’s acidity level usually refers to the amount of acids that one’s body fluid contains, as opposed to the basic level, which refers to the amount of alkalinity one’s body fluid contains. The reason why the body contains the alkaline is to neutralize the level of the acids in the body to keep it normal. If one’s body has too high an acid level, the first thing that one can suffer from is stomach discomfort at a greater level. The body has body fluids like saliva, blood, and urine that aids in the transportation of the acids and alkaline throughout the parts of the body.

The fluids transport the alkaline and acids throughout the body for lubrication, transportation of oxygen, excretion of waste in the body as urine and sweat, as well as transporting nutrients throughout the body. The pH of the body must always be balanced to avoid disrupting the body’s functions. The potential hydrogen is what generally measures the acidity and basic (acid or alkaline) levels in the body. Scientifically, the pH level ranges from 0-14. A pH of 7 is considered neutral, or balanced. A pH below 7 is acidic, and a pH above 7 is basic.

The higher the pH level the more likely your body has more fluids, resulting in a higher level of alkaline. On the other hand, the lower the pH level, the lower the amount of fluids in one’s body, hence the higher acidic levels. So, medical doctors usually tell their patients that in order for their body to be healthy and safe, their blood should have a pH level ranging from 7.35 to 7.45; their urine should have a pH level ranging from 4.6 to 8.0, and their saliva should range from 7.0 to 7.5.

In recent days, people have been too busy to take care of their health, and they do not pay close enough attention to the acidity level in their body. The most important thing that one needs to be aware of is that excess acid in the body can lead to a lot of destruction in the body. High acidity can lead to liver damage, heart failure, and it might even destroy some parts of the nervous system. With this in mind, people need to develop a way to help maintain their acidic level in their body.

Here are some signs that one should be aware of that might indicate the acidic level in their body is too high and therefore should take steps to rectify:

1. Excess Weight

Excess weight results from your body having to deal with too much junk in it; the excessive, unnecessary things in your body tend to create an imbalance in the level of acids and bases in your body, therefore resulting in one being overweight. What mainly cause the body tissues to expand is the high level of waste in the body, which can result in a high acidity level. Too much cholesterol, sugars, and sodium, as well as not enough exercise often leads to an increased level of acids, which in turn can lead to one suffering from weight gain.

The excess acids in the body wind up not being eliminated because the waste-carrying organs like the colon, kidneys, lymph system and the skin end up overworking. They eventually get overwhelmed by removing the excess acids. In order to have the body feel comfortable, its organs develop a new habit by finding different places to store the excess acids. This can result in excess weight and is done by the body taking the excess acids and pushing them into the body tissues, like excess cholesterol, and in turn, the acids stick to the fat cells, which then result in the body gaining weight.

The body needs fat cells to store fats and acids that will later be excreted from the body. If the body makes the fat cells store excessive amounts of acids, the excretion becomes difficult. When this happens, the body adapts to the new changes by making the body accommodate the acids, which can lead to excess weight.

The acids come from some of the popular foods that people oftentimes consume, like French fries, sugary drinks, and sodas, as well as alcohol, which leads to more acids in the body. The body might not be able to break down all this waste, and because they can stick in the body, they might not only lead to gaining weight but may also lead to heart disease and kidney failure. The best way to avoid this problem is to consume less of what we mentioned earlier. Eating smaller quantities of these foods, or avoiding them altogether, as well as making sure you drink plenty of water and get physical exercise, may help lower your acidic levels, which in turn may help you lose weight and feel better.

How Does Zeolite Work?

Zeolite is a natural crystal that is formed when molten hot volcanic lava meets the minerals in cooler sea water forming what is called Zeolite Clinoptilolite.

That natural reaction infuses a highly energetic molecule with a honeycomb shaped form which is specifically charged to attract toxins to itself and escorts them out of your body when taken internally in the form of liquid zeoliteANTI MICROBIAL.

Not only is it the #1 natural supplement on the planet that rids the body of heavy metals like radiation and fluoride, but it is also a powerful anti-microbial that is the Kryptonite to the nastiest of viruses too.

It is Zeolite’s “unique honeycomb” properties that attract viruses and toxins and then strips off their sheath coating so your immune system can now see them and successfully wipe them out of your body.

Zeolites Detox traps and releases heavy metals (even nuclear radiation particles) from the body. It takes away the protection to cancerous cells and stops their growth.

It is a powerful detox agent against viruses, bacteria and other pathogens and environmental toxins. It is also a natural immunity booster. It can quickly and safely cleanse these toxins out of your body, restoring lost energy that you didn’t realize was being stolen from you by these substances.

Heavy Metals are toxic to the human body and particularly the brain.

The most common harmful ones are: Fluoride, Mercury, Lead, Aluminum, Radiation – like Iodine 131 and Cesium 137 to name a few. These can poison your body and brain, cause MS (Multiple Sclerosis), Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, Parkinson’s and has even been linked to Mesothelioma.

How Does Zeolite work? Zeolite crystals trap heavy metals (radiation, fluoride, petroleum residues) and removes them from your body quickly and safely.

I have always believed that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Over these past 25 years my main focus has been to teach others ways to cleanse, balance, and nourish our bodies which has resulted in healthier family members, friends, and acquaintances.

Those who got serious and implemented some simple changes to their lifestyle, over time, made some amazing health improvements.

So, progress has been made.


I spent most of those years using my microscope to teach the concept of alkalinity and the profound positive effect it can have on our health and consequently our lives.

I was at my worst health in my mid-forties!

I was a working mom with two kids, too thin (110 pounds, 5’8”), teeth falling out from osteoporosis, kidney infections, uterine tumors, asthma, and arthritis in my knees and thumbs.

The simple act of riding a bike was impossible. I didn’t smoke or drink alcohol and ate the average American diet washed down with Cola…no water accept to take medications. What is wrong with this picture?


I’m now 74 and doing well. I have no osteoporosis, no tumors, no arthritis, no infections, and absolutely no asthma. Plus, I take no medications. I have been like this for over 20 years because I got alkaline. That’s it!

Could your one bad habit be killing you? Don’t wait too long to make some simple changes. I’m glad I didn’t wait. I am here to help.

5 Signs You’re Dehydrated

Posted on by
Reply

Picture a tall glass of icy-cold, refreshing water. Imagine a detailed image of it in your mind’s eye. Does the thought make you thirsty? If so, it’s likely you’re not drinking enough water. That’s because thirst is an early indicator of dehydration. Too often we unintentionally ignore thirst. With our fast-paced and busy lifestyle we often don’t realize we’re thirsty until severe dehydration hits. To make matters worse, a lot of people try to quench their thirst with soda or other sugary drinks which only causes the body to lose more water.

THE RESULT IS CHRONIC DEHYDRATION.

Over time, this can lead to a wide range of symptoms that can make life downright miserable.Here are five surprising signs that you may be chronically dehydrated and need to reach for a few more glasses of H20 every day.

1. Dry Skin

Your skin is the body’s largest organ and is made up of 64% water! As a result, it needs generous amounts of water to stay healthy and hydrated. When your skin doesn’t get enough water, it will become dry, itchy, and breakouts will be more common. In fact, dry skin is one of the earliest signs of severe dehydration. If this is something you experience, try increasing your intake of filtered water.

2. Fatigue and Lack of Energy

An early symptom of dehydration is fatigue and lethargy. Dehydration causes the enzymatic activity in the body to slow down which results in that miserable sluggish feeling we all have struggled with. Most people assume they feel tired from working hard, a poor night’s sleep, or they just naturally have low energy levels. While this can be the case, more often than not, it’s caused by dehydration. Try starting your day with a glass of lemon water to feel refreshed.

3. Constipation and Digestive Issues

Without enough water, the digestive system slows down dramatically. The result is constipation and gut discomfort. Your colon, along with other regions of the digestive system, draws in water to help move waste along. When you’re dehydrated, it’s much like trying to go down a steep waterslide with no water… ouch! Water also allows your gut to absorb water-soluble vitamins. So when you’re dehydrated, it’s possible to be deficient in vitamins B and C.

4. Weight Gain

Thirst can be easily mistaken for hunger. Sometimes when you’re slightly dehydrated, your body will make you feel hungry instead of thirsty. t’s a fiendish trick that can result in constant overeating which, of course, leads to weight gain. “People just think that when they start to get a little weak or they have a headache, they need to eat something, but most often they need to drink [water],” said Grace Webb, Assistant Director for the Clinical Nutrition at New York Hospital. Drinking more water can help you feel full more often, which in turn can result in better eating habits. To distinguish the difference between real hunger and thirst, drink a glass of water before you raid the pantry for a snack. If the hunger pangs subside after a few minutes, you’ll know it was just thirst playing a trick on you.

5. Stiff or Painful Joints

Our joints are made up of cartilage, fluid to reduce friction, and soft membranes. They prevent our bones from grinding against each other every time we move. Without water, these joint structures can’t do their job well. So to help keep your joints moving without discomfort, make sure you get enough water.

MAKE SURE YOUR WATER IS TOXIN-FREE

With busy lifestyles, it’s easy to forget about the simple things that make a big impact on our everyday life. It’s possible you can significantly improve your life just by drinking a few more glasses of H20 every day. To reap all the health benefits, make sure the water you drink is free of toxins that can harm your health. Lead, mercury and pesticides are commonly found in water supplies so filtered water is a must to feel your best.

Vitamin D: A Keystone of Immune Health

Posted on by
Reply

Vitamin D is one of the most overlooked components of a healthy immune system. In fact, before the development of antibiotics and advanced medical care, healthcare professionals unknowingly treated patients that had infectious diseases using vitamin D, achieving better outcomes in the process.

In 1903, a Swiss doctor named Auguste Rollier used sunlight therapy for patients with infectious diseases, leading to the creation of sanatoriums where TB patients received vitamin D through sunlight exposure. Many doctors during this time believed that sunlight killed the tuberculosis bacterium (2).

Despite this being over 100 years ago, these physicians were surprisingly on-point. Recent decades of scientific research has revealed that vitamin D has intimate ties to the immune system.

Vitamin D and Protection from Viruses

When your body doesn’t have enough vitamin D, your immune system can have a difficult time fighting off infections. Several studies have found that people with vitamin D deficiencies are more likely to experience upper respiratory infections (colds), influenza, and bacterial infections (3).

Moreover, there’s evidence that supplementing vitamin D can decrease the risk of getting sick with influenza or other related illnesses (4). This could explain why so many people get sick in the winter.

In winter months, people tend to bundle up against the cold and spend less time outdoors. Plus, people living in northern latitudes, which covers most of the US and Europe, can’t make vitamin D in winter months due to the angle of the sun relative to earth. The lower levels of vitamin D then make you more susceptible to catching a cold or flu (5, 6).

There’s also evidence that suggests low levels of vitamin D are associated with worse COVID-19 outcomes and increased mortality. It’s theorized that this occurs because vitamin D can help prevent the dangerous cytokine storm that can happen with a COVID-19 infection (7, 8).

For this very reason, researchers from Trinity College Dublin are also urging the Irish government to promote vitamin D for improved COVID-19 outcomes (9). Of course, this research is just preliminary and does not prove anything as of yet. Time will tell whether there is a true relationship between vitamin D and COVID-19 outcomes.

That being said, all this is pretty impressive for a little vitamin that your body makes from the sun, right? And it turns out that vitamin D does much more for the immune system than just helping it eliminate infection from viruses.

Vitamin D and Autoimmunity

Vitamin D can help balance out the immune system. In other words, it exerts immunomodulatory effects. This is important because when the immune system becomes overactive, it can attack your cells. When this happens, it’s called autoimmune disease.

Research has found correlations between vitamin D deficiency and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, and type 1 diabetes (10). As such, experts believe that getting enough vitamin D is important for the prevention of autoimmunity (11).

The take-home point here is that vitamin D has immunomodulatory effects that help balance the immune system and may prevent the immune system from overreacting and attacking healthy cells.

Most people realize that the immune system is important for killing off infections. But in addition to killing off harmful bacteria or viruses, your immune system has the important job of destroying cancer cells before they multiply and become a problem (12).

Of course, the immune system isn’t perfect. And cancer cells have some clever tricks. Some cancer cells, for instance, can change their behaviors to hide from natural killer cells—a type of immune cell that can kill harmful microbes or cells including cancer cells (13).

Evidence suggests that vitamin D may play an important role in the immune system for several types of cancer cells (14). This could explain why there are associations with vitamin D and reduced cancer mortality (15). This seems to be particularly the case for vitamin D and reduced risk of breast cancer.

One study showed women with high levels of vitamin D (> or equal to 60 ng/ml) had an 82% lower risk of breast cancer compared to women with a low level of vitamin D (<20 ng/ml) (16). Survival rates for breast cancer are also markedly better for women with higher vitamin D (17).

Of course, cancer is exceptionally complicated, and this does NOT mean vitamin D is a prevention or cure. Rather it shows that vitamin D plays an important role in the immune system, which we rely on to keep us healthy.

How to Get More Vitamin D

Ideally, you should get vitamin D naturally, from the sun, which is easier in summer months. Aim for at least 15 minutes of direct sun to skin exposure every day. If you have darker skin, you need even more time in the sun.

In addition to producing vitamin D, sun exposure is known to trigger the release of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide can combine with reactive oxygen species (also made by sun exposure) to produce a compound called peroxynitrite that is a natural antibacterial agent produced in your body (18).

Getting sun exposure can also help normalize your circadian rhythm for better sleep which also plays a critical role in immune health (19, 20).

However, getting 15+ minutes of sun exposure simply isn’t possible or even practical sometimes. If you’re unable to get enough sun exposure, the next best option is getting it through your diet with wild-caught oily fish or wild mushrooms, or via a nutritional supplement.

While it’s a good idea to take a vitamin D supplement during winter months or if you spend most of your time indoors, many vitamin D supplements out there are sourced from the fat in lamb’s wool. Not so appetizing, right?

Mushrooms are the only superfood source for vitamin D, making them an optimal, environmentally friendly source of vitamin D. Despite rumors that the plant-based form of vitamin D is inferior to animal-based vitamin D, studies have found that both forms of vitamin D are equally effective (21).

In addition to organic vitamin D, an ideal supplement should include the nutritional co-factors that optimize absorption. Mineral-rich greens provide the right balance of vitamin K, magnesium and other nutrients your body needs to make the most of vitamin D.

The immune system is critical to our well-being. Research shows that vitamin D is a keystone for immune health through protecting us from infections, and helping to prevent an overactive immune system. Since one small vitamin can have such a big impact, getting enough vitamin D should be a priority every day.
