Is Your Body Acidic or Alkaline?

The cells in your body will only operate as well as you feed them.  You have heard "you are what you eat" and "food is medicine."  Believe it.

                                    

When your body is functioning at its optimal level, bodily fluids and tissues exist in a slightly alkaline state (not acidic). The foods you eat often becomes the raw material to rebuild its tissue. Your pH balance can quickly become unbalanced if your diet consists largely of "acidifying" foods.

These acidifying foods would result in your blood and body tissues becoming bathed in an acidic solution. Of course, it won't kill you right away, but if left untreated, this acidic condition leads to diseases such as heart disease, high cholesterol and obesity.
