WHAT IS THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH? The fountain of youth is an alkaline body. An alkaline body is a body free from lifestyle diseases, and chemically balanced. The opposite of an alkaline body is an acidic body. An acidic body is said to have medical condition called “Acidosis” Acidosis is a condition in which body chemistry becomes imbalanced and overly acidic. Symptoms with Acidosis include: frequent sighing, insomnia, water retention, recessed eyes, rheumatoid arthritis, migraine head aches, abnormally low blood pressure, dry hard stools, foul smelling stools accompanied by a burning sensation in anus, alternating constipation and diarrhea, difficulty swallowing, burning in mouth or under tongue, sensitivity of teeth to vinegar and acidic fruits, bumps on tongue or roof of mouth. Some causes of Acidosis are; kidney, liver and adrenal disorders, improper diet, malnutrition, obesity, ketosis, anger, stress, fear, anorexia, toxemia, fever, excessive amounts of aspirin and prescription drugs. Acidosis occurs when body loses its alkaline reserves. Do some of conditions described sound like problems of people suffering from old age? They probably do because aging is defined as an accumulation of acidic wastesin our body. A simple test can be done to determine if you body is too acidic, too alkaline, or just right. Test your body often, this way you can monitor any changes and adjust your body accordingly. This test is called your PH Test; Purchase PH Paper, (from your health food store, PH color graph will come with paper), apply saliva /or urine to a piece of paper .The paper will change color to indicate if your system is acidic or alkaline. Perform test before eating or at least on hour after eating. The scale called PH is; 1.01 to 6.9 is considered an acidic body 7.0 is neutral 7.1 to14.0 is alkaline 7.2 to 8.0 is ideal alkaline level Continue to test your PH level for rest of your life, this is a good barometer to your internal health. Are you concerned about your PH level? You should be, if you have an acidic body. An acidic body corrodes your body tissue, your veins, your arteries. Your body becomes a host for numerous life style diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes. To learn more about connection to Cancer and your PH. Visit www.cureamerica.net and refer to book “The Calcium Factor”. This marvelous book describes how calcium helps change an acidic body to an alkaline body. Causes of your acidosis are mainly diet. Research shows that when your food is broken down, it leaves chemical, non combustible ash which when combined with body fluids, yields either acidic or alkaline potentials of PH. Certain foods are acid forming, while others are alkali-forming. So it stands to reason that to change your body from an acidic body to an alkaline body you need to change your diet. The following is a list of Alkaline Forming Foods; Avocados Honey Corn Maple Syrup Dates Molasses Fresh Coconut Raisins Fresh Fruits (most) Soy Products Fresh Vegetables Umeboshi Plums
