Alkaline Foods What are they?
Alkaline food is very important in cleansing the body naturally. I’m always asked why? Well when we consumed them they keep the ph level arounf 7.4 which then keeps the body in check. It is recommended that we include in our diets around 80% of alkaline food. Well the next question is what foods are good for Alkaline cleansing? Take a look at the list below.

| General Guidance:
Stick to salads, fresh vegetables and healthy nuts and oils. Try to consume plenty of raw foods and at least 2-3 litres of clean, pure water daily (ideally enhanced with pH drops). |
General Guidance:
Steer clear of fatty meats, dairy, cheese, sweets, chocolates, alcohol and tobacco. Packaged foods are often full of hidden offenders and microwave meals are full of sugars and salts. Over cooking also removes all of the nutrition from a meal! |

Eating these types of Alkaline food in our everyday diets are very easy to condiering some are snack foods that we can eat on the fly.
The FIVE main benafits are:
- Acidic blood levels drain the body of its energy. Consuming alkaline foods restores the optimal pH levels in the blood and lead to increased energy production.
- If the body consumes too much acidic food, the fat cells will store excess fat. Alkaline foods help the body’s cells function efficiently and keep the body from storing fat.
- The brain is able to focus clearly when the body consumes alkaline foods. This is because the brain gets energy directly from the bloodstream. If the blood has alkalinity, it will efficiently power the brain.
- Alkaline diet supporters claim that by eating alkaline foods and keeping the body’s pH level slightly alkaline, the body will detoxify and the degeneration of cells will slow down.
- Another benefit of alkaline foods is a healthy heart. Alkalinity in the blood cells helps them maintains a negative polarity, which keeps them from sticking to the negatively charged vein walls in the heart and causing clots or blockage.

I found this really cool site that has a water catalyst that basically fixes all acidic bottled water like Dasani and Fiji and others. It is a concentrate. You just put 5 or 6 drops in the bottle and shake. If you then test it, you will find the pH has risen to about 8 to 8.5. Not only that, but the micro-cluster size of the water molecules is smaller. This means that the water will make everything you eat more bioavailable! Nutrition is increased as well as waste elimination! You can put some of the drops in an “eye dropper” and pack it with you where ever you go!
It’s ideal for travelling or business!
