Life exists only where there is balance, and our body is completely regulated by the pH level in it. Human existence is possible only within the strict limits of acid-base balance, which range from 7,35 – 7,45.
A seven-year study conducted at the University of California among 9000 women found a greater risk of bone loss in those who suffer from chronic acidosis (increased levels of acid in the body). Many hip fractures in middle-aged women are associated with acidity caused by diets rich in animal protein. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition

Skin, hair and nails
Dry skin, brittle nails, and dull hair are common symptoms of high acidity in the body. Such symptoms are the result of insufficient formation of the connective tissue protein keratin. Hair, nails, and the outer layer of skin are different shells of the same protein. Mineralization is what can bring back their strength and radiance.
Mental clarity and concentration
Emotional mental decline is associated with aging, but acidosis can also have this effect, as it reduces the production and production of neurotransmitters. A growing body of evidence explains that the cause of some neurodegenerative diseases is excess acidity in the body. Maintaining a pH of 7,4 reduces the risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
Increased immunity
Immunity to disease is the task of our immune system. White blood cells fight disease-causing organisms and toxic substances in many ways. They produce antibodies that inactivate antigens and foreign microbial proteins. Immune function is best possible only with a balanced pH.
Dental health
Sensitivity to hot and cold drinks, mouth ulcers, brittle teeth, sore and bleeding gums, infections including tonsillitis and pharyngitis are the result of an acidic body.
For alkalization of the body, it is necessary that the diet contains mainly: kale, spinach, parsley, green smoothies, broccoli, Brussels sprouts and white cabbage, cauliflower.
– the most alkalizing drink. It contains citric acid, which makes it feel sour on the tongue. However, when the components of the juice dissociate, the high mineral content of the lemon makes it alkalizing.
