Keeping the body alkaline

As we know, paying attention to what we put into our body can determine superior health or debilitating disease. Being aware of the acidity and alkalinity of certain foods is an important part of choosing our daily diets to prevent ill health. Viruses and disease thrive in an acidic environment attacking organs, joints, muscles, tissues, & glands. These health problems are caused by too much tissue acid waste and can be corrected by balancing the alkalinity/acidity of the body.
Make sure the majority of the foods you eat are alkaline.....80% alkaline to 20% acid. Find a good food chart laying out the alkaline and acid values of different foods and use that as a guide at first....you will be amazed at how many acidic foods are eaten on a daily basis. Eating a diet of acidifying foods on a regular basis leaves an extremely high vulnerability to cold's, flu's, moodiness, insomnia, skin problems, arthritis, gout, injuries, & everyday aches and pains that we think are "normal" for our age....not to mention more serious diseases like cancer.
Most people get up in the morning and have a coffee first thing (highly acidic), then they may have a doughnut or muffin (highly acidic), for lunch maybe a ham sandwich or tuna melt (highly acidic), a drink of pop or pasteurized fruit juice (highly acidic), and for dinner could be any kind of meat with some rice and a glass of wine (highly acidic). All these food items are not just slightly acidic, but extremely acidic!
If you know me, you are aware that I am always recommending eating alkalizing foods and eating a whole, natural diet with the addition of fresh juices & Wheatgrass!
Try alkalizing yourself and I know you will feel the difference!
