How to Naturally create an Alkaline Environment in the body

How to naturally remove Acid and create an Alkaline Environment in the body:

 

The key is to eat a whole food plant-based diet, not a processed vegan version. Many processed foods can be vegan, but won’t support your health as well as eating simple whole foods and using them to create tasty meals. 

 

Giving your body whole food sources of nutrients - like calcium, fiber, B vitamins, magnesium, protein, Vitamin D, essential fatty acids, and potassium - will keep your cells functioning exactly as they were designed. 

 

Our cells recognize whole foods as sources of energy. Man-made foods require your body to use its energy to decipher what it's supposed to do with them, use what it can, and then try to detoxify the rest. A diet heavy in animal-based and processed foods makes your body work harder internally, which makes you tired after eating that type of meal.

 

Here are some top recommendations of whole foods that will assist your body to remove acid. These alkaline foods restore the pH balance so that including them in your daily diet will promote better health.

 

1. Almonds

Almonds and almost all nuts are a rich source of nutrients and healthy fats. They are a great addition to your daily diet because they are alkaline.  They improve your skin and hair quality, memory, muscle power, lower cholesterol levels, and encourage weight loss as well.

 

2. Cucumbers

Cucumbers have diuretic properties. They naturally break uric acid and flush it out of your body. It keeps your body hydrated, eliminates toxins, cleanses and balances the acidic levels.  Cucumbers also prevent acid crystallization in your body. 

 

3. Cabbage

Folate and magnesium in cabbage are beneficial for both your digestive and immune system. It is a rich source of fiber and promotes alkalinity at a cellular level in your body. It also helps your body fight cancer and encourages weight loss as well. 

 

4. Grapefruit

Grapefruit is a citrus fruit and is a powerhouse of health benefits. You may feel that it is acidic, but grapefruits are alkaline in nature and have metabolism-boosting properties as well. It enriches your body with vitamin C which strengthens your immune system to a great extent. It also improves the alkaline levels in your body and prevents the accumulation of excess fat. 

 

5. Lemons

Lemons are acidic in taste but are actually alkaline in nature. They are also a citrus fruit which is beneficial for your digestive system. It improves the pH levels in your body by flushing out excess acids. Add fresh lemon juice to a glass of warm water and drink it first thing in the morning. It is widely used for quick and healthy weight loss.

 

6. Basil

Basil is touted to be the king of herbs and for a good reason. It is rich in vitamin K, C, calcium and omega 3 fatty acids as well. Basil is abundant in nutrients and helps you eliminate acid from your body naturally. It can lower your risk of kidney stones as well.

 

7. Cantaloupes

Cantaloupes are another sweet and healthy fruit. They are rich in vitamin B, beta carotene, phytochemicals and are alkaline in nature. Therefore, regular consumption of this fruit helps you restore your body's pH levels as well. The nutrients in this fruit helps your body flush out toxins accumulated within and reduce the risk of serious diseases.

Whole Foods or Chemical Isolates? What’s in Your Cupboard?

Whole Foods or Chemical Isolates? What’s in Your Cupboard? Your choice affects your health and your wealth! Many of us are already investing in our health by shopping at a health food store or farmer’s market.   We believe we’re buying quality vitamins and health supplements.  But are we?  Could these also be substitutes that are weakening our health? Millions of people around the world are choosing to get their vitamins from whole foods. Why do they choose to eat an orange rather than 1,000 mg of Vitamin C? Because they know that most bottled vitamins are chemical isolates. What is a chemical isolate? It is a single element that had been isolated from its natural complex environment.  Dr. Wayne Dyer was a member of the World Hunger Council and shared that this organization created a chemically manufactured wheat. Under a microscope, their laboratory creation is chemically identical to real wheat. BUT there’s a big difference: when put in the ground, it won’t grow. What’s miss

Regeneration or Substitution—which are you choosing?

Regeneration or Substitution —which are you choosing? Why is that an important question? Why does it even matter? Because your choice affects your quality of life! Let’s start with an example:                Credit cards are a convenient substitute for cash, which is an advantage to 1) carrying a lot of cash around and 2) makes bookkeeping a little simpler. And 3) they can be useful in a financial crisis. But what if you have a lifestyle of never budgeting your income to pay off the credit cards?   That leads to bankruptcy.   What we think is a lifestyle of freedom can often create enslavement! What if we live a lifestyle of choosing the convenience of consuming processed ‘fast foods’ in boxes to save ourselves the time and energy it takes to cook? Or what if we choose sugary ‘fake foods’ to soothe our emotions rather than address what’s causing them? That’s when we’re choosing substitution! Choosing low-quality ‘substitute’ foods eventually leads to a health crisis in our b

Healthy Gut = Healthy You!

Have you ever wondered why two people who have the same exposure experience different outcomes – one gets sick, but the other doesn’t? The difference boils down to their immune system. Did you know that 70% to 80% of your immune system lives in your gut?  Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, known as the gut doctor, explains that the foundation of a healthy gut is in the fiber in whole foods.  And it's important to eat  a large variety of fruits and vegetables (suggested 20 to 30 different varieties per week) because each one has its own unique fiber that gives you a larger variety of good bacteria to boost your immunity.  Since this isn't always convenient, I add  Quinary to my daily meals.  We follow his suggestion of adding a sprinkle of cinnamon, turmeric, and ginger powder (about 1/8 tsp of each) into our coffee so it becomes a food that improves our gut health. It's delicious! Of course, you need to shift sugar to honey and substitute a plant milk, like oat, for the flavored creame
