alkalization for health
maintaining proper ph balance in the human body is a critically important for good health. efficient metabolic processes and proper system functions are highly dependent upon the body maintaining a very precise level of ph in the blood, intercellular tissues, and muscles. biological acids are generated in a variety of ways (diet, stress, environment, illness, and certain medicines, to name a few). the human body is very efficient at managing acids generated by the normal processes of metabolism. the body has a variety of systems that manage and maintain precise levels of ph balance, by buffering normal acid production and expelling acid waste.
the acid problem
the acid buffering systems in the human body have other functions too. for example, if the body’s usual acid buffering systems are working at capacity, but can’t keep maintain precise levels of ph balance, the body will tap into backup systems and goes into extreme measures to maintain the necessary acid/alkaline balance.
one backup system may begin extracting calcium from the bones to act as a buffer. another backup system may break down muscle (muscle wasting) in order to engage additional acid buffering power.
athletes are an excellent source of research. for instance, if an athlete vigorously works out for an extended period of time, he might suffer from something call “exercise induced metabolic acidosis” – or, in other words, his body has produced more acid that his body can naturally process. this is okay for short periods of time. however, if allowed to go on for extended periods of time his body will begin to be stressed and not function as well.
metabolic acidosis can be a problem for non-athletes as well. age, stress, diet, disease, prescription drugs, etc., each can generate acidic stress in the body. in our modern world it is likely that a vast majority of people are suffering from chronic, low-grade, metabolic acidosis.
the british journal of nutrition published a peer-reviewed monograph in january 2010, which concluded that metabolic acidosis should be recognized and treated as a serious condition.
the alkaline solution
the body has a variety of means of generating alkaline materials to buffer acid in the body. and, there are a variety of ways that people can support their body in this regard.
a careful diet has long been known to help maintain a healthy ph balance in the body. the problem is that everyone is different, and diet works for some people and not for everyone. worse, even if diet works – being on an alkaline producing diet is a lot of work and difficult to maintain. like foods, herbs and supplements can often help, but like foods they work for some and not for others.
ph sciences ingredients work for anyone. they are easily absorbed into the body and directly, safely buffer acid, thus reducing the amount of acid that the body has to deal with. .
