Alkalizing & Alkaline Food
Should you be willing to make a commitment to your health and balance your intake of daily foods, you have to take a whole new look at your diet. Think about an alkaline diet, which is starting your day with Alkalizing and alkaline foods that will help you to restore pH balance and get rid of acid wastes.
The body's entire metabolic process depends on an alkaline environment. Our internal system lives and dies at the cellular level. All the billions of cells that make up the human body are slightly alkaline (see pH scale), and must maintain alkalinity in order to function and remain healthy and alive.
One of the most important things is to hydrate our body with Alkaline Water, which has a pH between 9 and 11, and will neutralize harmful acid wastes and gently remove them from the tissues. Besides hydrating the body with alkaline water, it is equally important to create the proper balance of alkaline and acid forming foods through a healthy alkaline diet.
Alkaline foods are mostly green foods and vegetables, especially raw ones. Most alkalizing are wheat and alfalfa grasses, fresh cucumber and most kind of sprouts. Furthermore, fruits like limes, tomatoes and avocado also have an alkalizing effect on our body, same as most kind of seeds, tofu, fresh soybeans, almonds, and olive oil.
Some other healthy, alkaline foods are sunflower sprouts, flax oil, brown basmati rice, millet, soaked almonds, tomato slices, fresh avocado, vegetable soups or green vegetable juices. All these foods offer a low carbohydrate, high fibre and delicious nutrition and a way to nourish your system with what it really needs to avoid the body cells to over-acidify. Fresh vegetables, greens and grasses are an excellent anti-yeast and anti-fungal. Besides, in this way also blood sugar levels won’t soar and won’t cause an increase in blood insulin.
Green grasses such as barley or wheat grass are some of the lowest-calorie, lowest-sugar and most nutrient-rich foods on earth, and contain high amounts of fibre.
General rule of thump: green foods for breakfast, green foods for lunch, and green foods for dinner. Especially important for us humans is the green plant pigment chlorophyll. Chlorophyll contained in plants and grasses is identical to the blood of humans, except of one atom. It is the only known and existing substance that is able to transform sunlight into eatable energy - a process without there wouldn’t be life on earth! In other words we “eat sunlight” when we eat salad, greens and vegetables.
