What Most citizen Don'T Realize; We Are Bio Electrical Engines
In order to perform all the many millions of complex functions that occur over the procedure of the day, your body has to be able to recite with itself... All the way down to the cellular level. And do you know how it does this? through pulses of electricity. That's right, electricity.
Energy
Your body operates on an electro magnetic current. Believe it or not, all of the organs in your body emit these fields of electrical current. In fact, nerve signals are nothing more than electrical charges.
What creates this electrical power in your body is a very fine balance that exists in your bio chemistry. And of all the systems in your body that depend on this delicate, bio chemical balance, one of the most prominent is your blood stream. This is where pH comes into play. But what is pH?
What Ph Is And Why It Is prominent To All Your Body Functions
Ph is a scale that measures how acidic or alkaline a substance is. The scale ranges from 1 to 14 with 1 being very acid, 7 neutral and 14 very alkaline.
So what does pH have to do with you and your blood? Well, the pH of your blood is extremely important. The ideal pH level for your blood is right around 7.35 and your body goes to big lengths to vocalize this level.
Why? Because if your blood pH were to vary 1 or 2 points in either direction, it would change the electrical chemistry in your body, there would be no electrical power and in short order you would drop dead. As you can see, maintaining the right pH level in your blood is pretty important!!
With this in mind a good way to avoid upsetting this delicate bio chemical balance would be to take a look at those things that can compromise the maintenance of the ideal pH level in your body. And what is the main culprit in this case? The respond is the creation of acid in your body.
Before we look at what causes acid, here's a descriptive example to give you an idea of what can happen in the blood when your pH drops to less than ideal. Red blood cells are how oxygen is conveyable to all the cells in your body.
As red blood cells move into the tiny, little, capillaries, the space they have to move through gets pretty small. In fact, the diameter of the capillaries gets so small that the red blood cells sometimes have to pass through these capillaries one red blood cell at a time!
Because of this, and because it's prominent for the red blood cells to be able to flow in effect and quickly through your body, they have a mechanism that allows them to remain detach from each other. This mechanism comes in the form of the covering of salutary red blood cells having a negative charge. This causes them to stay apart from each other, sort of like when you try to push the negative ends of two magnets together. They resist each other and stay apart.
Unfortunately, acid interferes with this very prominent mechanism in a pretty frightening way. Acid in effect strips away the negative charge from red blood cells. The corollary is that your red blood cells then tend to clump together and not flow as easily. This makes it much more difficult for them to flow in effect through the bloodstream.
But it also makes it harder for them to move freely through those small capillaries. This means less oxygen gets to your cells. Acid also weakens the red blood cells and they begin to die. And guess what they release into your ideas when they die? More acid.
I could recite a whole list of processes that occur when your ideas becomes and remains acid but I think you get the idea. The point is that aside from the acid that is secreted into your stomach to aid digestion, acid in your body is bad. in effect bad.
In regard to producing energy in the body, here's an easy inquire for you. What do you think happens to a person's energy level if over time their ideas becomes more and more acid, their biochemical balance is disrupted and their red blood cells can't deliver oxygen and nutrients as efficiently to all their cells? The respond is simple. Their energy level drops. Dramatically.
Are you starting to get the picture here as to the importance of pH in your body? Good. Now let's take a quick look at what causes acidity in your body and then look at steps you can take to get your body pH back to an ideal level.
What Causes Acid In The Body
The primary cause of an acidic condition in your body is from what you put in your mouth. In other words, what you eat and what you drink. And it isn't how "acid" something may seem when you eat or drink it. It has to do with what is left over when you suck up it.
Specifically, does eating or drinking something leave behind an acid or alkaline "ash". For example, I don't know about you but I love seafood. Scallops are one of my favorites. However, when your body digests scallops, it leaves an extremely acid ash. In fact, scallops are one of the most acid foods you can eat.
Unfortunately, a lot of the things most citizen put in their mouths generate an acid ash. These consist of alcohol, coffee and a lot of flesh protein in your diet. Interestingly enough, stress also tends to generate an acid condition in the body.
Steps You Can Immediately Take To heighten Your Ph
Fortunately, it is pretty easy to immediately change your pH for the best and make it more alkaline. The first step is to understand which of the foods you are eating and the drinks you are drinking are acid and which are alkaline. Then it's simply a matter of eliminating some of the more acid foods you are eating and adding in more alkaline foods.
However, before you start, it's prominent to get a baseline of what the pH is in your body so that you can see how you are enhancing or if you need to continue to eliminate more acid foods and add in more alkaline ones.
You can do this by testing the pH of your saliva on a quarterly basis. This is in effect uncomplicated to do. More details on how to do this are provided on some web pages I have created for you to help you out. A link to these pages is provided below.
In increasing to decreasing the amount of acid foods you eat and increasing the amount of alkaline foods you eat, one of the best ways to immediately begin changing your pH is to drink "green drinks". You can make these by simply adding a powder that is made up of a whole host of vegetables that are extremely alkaline to a glass of water. information on recommend green drink powders to use is included on pages that I have a link to below.
