Benefits Of Alkalising The Body

I thought I would share some information on alkalising the body because when our body is in an alkaline or neutral state it is a much healthier state to be in. When the body is in an acidic state it places you at a greater risk of contracting disease, chronic illness, experiencing weight gain, pain and inflammation in the body and even premature ageing.

The typical everyday diet unfortunately contains a high level of acidic foods, animal proteins, wheat, gluten, dairy, coffee, tea, alcohol, refined and processed sugars so it is important to familiarise yourself with alkaline forming foods. Some alkaline forming foods include most fruits, vegetables, herbs, nuts, seeds and herbal teas. Celery juice, green juices, leafy greens, cucumbers, lemons, melons and chia seeds are some of the best alkaline producing foods. Having a plant based diet is a great way to alkalise the body as well and is proven to be very healing for the body especially when recovering from chronic illness or disease.

If we are not eating enough alkaline forming foods then the body has to pull these minerals from our bones, teeth and organs. This paves the way for a compromised immune system, cellular damage, general fatigue and a greater vulnerability to viruses and disease. Bacteria and disease, especially cancer cells cannot thrive in an alkaline body. 

If you do have a highly acidic diet then you are creating a favourable environment for yeast and fungus. By switching to a more alkaline diet you will fight chronic yeast infections and some of the symptoms associated with them such as fatigue, mood swings, bloating, gas, bad breath, brain fog and digestive irregularities. 

Here are some benefits of the body being in an alkaline state:
1. Youthful and clear skin
2. Deeper & rejuvenating sleep
3. More physical energy
4. Less colds, headaches and flu viruses
5. Improved digestion
6. Less arthritis and joint pain
7. Reduction of candida (yeast) overgrowth
8. Healthier & stronger bones and tissues
9. Increased mental clarity and mental alertness
10. Less susceptibility to cancer
