Your pH Balance Slows Aging And Keeps The Weight Off

By

A balanced pH helps slow aging.

Your pH balance changes as you get older.

Your body’s pH is important at all ages, but when you are post-menopausal (for women), which is actually the same age range for men (prostate issues, etc.), your pH can change. 

Over the years, your exposure to toxins typically accumulates.

Things That Lower Your pH

Over the years, you are commonly exposed to:

  1. toxins in your water;
  2. low-quality foods;
  3. medications;
  4. environmental pollutants;
  5. infections and inflammation;
  6. bad digestion. 

All of the above can create an acidic pH, and an acidic pH:

It’s hard to lose weight if your pH is out of balance.
  • results in weight gain, higher body fat, and the inability to lose weight;
  • creates a disease environment;
  • exacerbates allergies;
  • results in malnutrition;
  • stimulates pre-mature aging.

So, maintaining your pH to a balance around 6.6 to 6.8 can help: 

  • prevent hardening of the arteries;
  • stabilize blood sugar levels;
  • avoid prostate issues in men;
  • restore healthy hormones in women;
  • slow the aging process;
  • prevent disease from getting worse over time.

Drinking water with lemon keeps your pH balanced.

How To Increase Your Alkaline Level

If you are too acidic, here are some ways you can increase your alkaline level:

  1. buy alkaline drinking water;
  2. add a pinch of baking soda to 8 ounces of water; (sodium bicarbonate) 2 to 3 times a week;
  3. add lemon or lime to your water; lemon juice is very acidic, but once fully digested, it ends up alkaline.

When your pH is in balance, you’ll notice the difference.
