The human body is designed to be alkaline and it functions properly in this state. The optimum pH for our blood and body tissues is about 7.35 to 7.45. However, the foods that most of us eat cause our bodies to be in a constant state of acidity. You can put the blame on highly acidic-foods like processed food, sodas, junk-food, meat, eggs and dairy-products that most of us consume in huge amounts. A constant state of acidity can lead to heart disease, a stroke, cancer, skin disorders, auto-immune conditions, allergies and the list goes-on. The solution to this problem is an alkaline diet. Several foods are alkaline in nature and can help properly balance our pH levels to reduce daily ailments and the possibility of certain long-term health-risks.
