title: An Acidic Body = A Disease Magnet
date: Tuesday, April 30, 2013 time : 1:25 PM Why I would like to share here the pieces of useful articles/newletters on wellness and health that I read and learn. Somehow I hope my children will one day come into here not only to read and reminisce those childhood memories but also hoping this little space will benefit them to be more conscious about their own health and get them to know a little more about health wellness and directing them to be aware of the health consequences As they grow, they should take the responsible in taking care of their own health and I can't forever control them as like they are still a little baby. If you have been following my blog, should know that now my kids and my diet are more to alkaline form of food to balance the acidify body. So I think this is a very good one to share, which I read today during my lunch, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you know that an acidic body is a sickness magnet? What does
it mean by acidic body? Our eating habits and lifestyle are
wreaking havoc to our body and health. You like McDonalds,
Burger King, Wendy’s, soda, chips, doughnuts and fried stuffs?
Think twice before excessively gorging these stuffs down your
throat.
When we consume foods like fast food, snacks, refined
carbohydrates, soda and alcohol, they are digested by our body.
The digestion produces acidic compounds, hence acidifying our
body.
Stress factors, lacking of exercise, exposure to
pollutants, toxic overload (from drugs, ingestion of pesticide
residue from food) only make things worse.
Over acidic body ‘attracts’ many kinds of sickness. You can feel
constant tiredness (fatigue), you may see your body adding more
those unwanted extra pounds (obesity) or your complexion gets
duller and more pimples start breaking out (your body not
expelling toxins effectively).
In other words, what happens if your body gets to acidic?
1. It provides a condition that allows tumor cells to thrive - CANCER 2. Make the body more susceptible to fatigue and illness 3. Your body will have a hard time getting rid of heavy metals and toxins, causing more stress to organs that expels toxins (e.g. : Kidney, lungs, liver, skin, colon) 4. Acid build-up in cells can hamper the body’s ability to repair damaged cells
Balancing the body’s pH (to measure acidity and alkalinity) is
the first step towards well-being and greater health. To
maintain health, eat more fresh fruits and particularly
vegetables (see the list below to find out what are the alkaline
forming fruits, veggies and other foods) to balance out the
protein intake (acid forming food).
Among many fruits,
lemon is categorized as one of the extremely alkaline producing
food.
