How To Tell If You Have An Acidic Body, And What To Eat To Alkalize It Fast

Image
Acidic bodies are unhealthy bodies. When the body is acidic, it creates an unwanted environment where illness, bacteria, and yeast thrive. When the body is overly acidic, the body takes minerals from vital organs and bones to neutralize the acid and remove it from the body. Because of this, the body’s mineral reserves such as calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium can run dangerously low and cause damage that can go undetected for years, until it reaches unhealthy levels, causing acidosis. Most of us are already consuming enough acid-forming foods, such as dairy, grains, meats and sugar. Since the body is constantly generating acidic waste products from the metabolism, those waste products need to be neutralized or excreted in some way. In order to neutralize the constant acid generation, we need to supply the body with more alkaline foods. Health problems caused by poor pH balance:     Immune deficiency     Sciatica, lumbago, stiff neck   ...

MSG (Vetsin): A Silent Killer

Image
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a popular flavor enhancer which is often added to Chinese food. However, newest studies suggest that it is also involved in numerous foods we eat on a daily basis! Apparently, MSG and its detrimental effects are difficult or impossible to be prevented. This chemical flavor enhancer has been related to a numerous health conditions, like obesity, fibromyalgia, fatty liver, metabolic syndrome, neurological and brain damage, as well as high insulin and blood sugar levels. This flavor enhancer is one of the most harmful ones on the market, and it is added to crackers, meats, baby foods, canned soups, salad dressings, infant formula, and children’s school lunch. Hence, MSG does not simply season your dishes like salt and pepper, but it enhances the flavor, meaning that when added, it will hide the true properties of frozen dinners and processed meats, and will provide a tastier and fresher flavor, with a better smell. Therefore, its effects are more than welcome...

The Health Dangers Of Drinking Iced Water

Image
When eating out, I always ask my server for water with no ice and they often look at me like I am crazy. But I am not, and below I explain why. First, take a minute to close your eyes and imagine the following: It is spring and you are standing on a wooden dock that extends into a high mountain lake. While the temperature in the air is fairly warm, the top layer of the lake has only recently melted and you can tell by the color of the crystal clear blue water that it is anything but warm. You close your eyes and dive in. What does your body do? What does your skin do? Are you relaxed and open, or tight and constricted?  “You probably know that warm water opens your pores and makes your skin feel looser, while cold water closes your pores and constricts your skin. Guess what? Drinking cold water does the same thing to your digestive tract!” Prolonged Exposure to Cold Water What Happens When You Drink Cold Water – When you drink cold beverages your blood vessels shrink, your digestio...

Vitamin Water: Perhaps One of the Most Toxic “Health” Drinks of the Century!

Every major beverage company in the world has started focusing on promoting healthy products and Coca Cola is certainly not an exception. This beverage corporation is especially proud of their VitaminWater and they advertise it as a very healthy and incredibly hydrating beverage. According to the Coca Cola Company, this drink also lowers the chances of developing eye diseases, protects us from chronic diseases, supports our bones and joints and improves our immunity, too. But, it turns out that all these promises are false. A recent article published in the reputable Mat Hoffman Post, written by John Robbins, PhD, MD, has debunked these claims. According to Robbins, VitaminWater is nothing more that sugar-water with traces of synthetic vitamins. What is even worse is that the quantity of sugar found in this beverage is relatively high. One regular bottle of VitaminWater comes with about 33 grams of sugar which makes this beverage closer to a soft drink family than to a healthy drink fa...

Ovarian Cancer Case Linked to Johnson and Johnson Baby Powder

Image
Wow! This is just really shocking! Something as innocent as a baby powder is now linked to cancer! They are just dry applications to our skin, not even taken internally! How much more the lotions, soaps, shampoos, toothpaste, etc? Do you remember liberally applying this to your baby brothers and sisters with this powder? Even to toddlers when they are sweating after playing right?! Here is an article from CBS and NBC News ordering J&J to pay damages to the family of an ovarian cancer victim: http://www.cbsnews.com/news/johnson-johnson-ordered-to-pay-72-million-over-cancer-death/ http://www.nbcnews.com/health/cancer/court-orders-johnson-johnson-payoff-talcum-powder-ovarian-cancer-case-n524456 The victim was using "the iconic talcum powder as a bathroom staple for decades". The victim's son said that applying the baby powder "just became second nature, like brushing your teeth. It's a household name." As per the CBS article, "In May 2009, a coalitio...

How Exercise Makes You Smarter, Happier, and Less Stressed

Image
I confess, I am definitely a sedentary, a "taong bahay" person. I'm happy at home, even when my wife and daughter is at my home province.  My hobby is playing computer games and watching movies at home. I know I need to exercise, not just to slim down, but also for my health. I do walk a bit, as well as ride my bike to work, but I know its not enough. I barely even perspire. Why is it so hard for most of us to exercise? "We need to move," says Ratey of our evolutionary baggage, early in the talk. "It's only 10,000 years ago that we were hunter-gatherers and we moved anywhere from 10 to 14 miles a day." That's the bottom line for physical fitness, but science is beginning to show that it's equally true for our mental health. Ratey lays out an incredible amount of research showing the amazing things exercise does for our mood and cognitive function, as well as exactly how these positive effects work. Smarter. These days, test-obsessed schools...

White Food Are Cancerous

Image
The "whiter" the food, the more cancerous it is... You probably didn’t know how dangerous and harmful these 5 “poisons” can be, and this is why you consumed them every day. But, now we are going to tell you and you won’t have any excuses.

Big Pharmacies Don't Want Us Healed, They Just Want To Make Money

Image
I have been seeing a lot of Conspiracy Theories about successful natural medicine or cure for Cancer, Diabetes, Heart Attack and other degenerative diseases. They sometimes imply that it was being hidden or that the Big Pharmacies doesn't want us to know about these Alternative Medications because they will lose a lot of money. I think this is true based on this news article published last Sept 18, 2015: 29 Naturopaths Poisoned at Conference in Germany as War Against Natural Healers Heats Up Investigators are looking into a case of what appears to be intentional poisoning or possibly even attempted homicide that affected nearly three dozen holistic doctors attending a recent conference in Hamburg, Germany. Reports indicate that the 29 healers fell ill after being exposed to a dangerous and illegal amphetamine drug known as 2C-E, or "Aquarust." Initial reports of the incident implied that the 29 naturopathic doctors, who had been attending a homeopathic health conference, ...

Energy Efficient Bulbs Cause Anxiety, Migraines, and Even Cancer. Be Careful Not To Break It!

Image
Lots of people are struggling to save electricity and money in different ways. For instance, they start using environmentally- friendly bulbs, which are proved to use less electricity, instead of the standard ones. Nevertheless, due to the toxic substances found in these energy efficient light bulbs, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency published an emergency protocol which has to be followed in case the bulb has broken in order to protect people from the poison and toxins released from it. A team of researchers from the Fraunhofer Wilhelm Klauditz Institute conveyed a survey for the German`s Federal Environment Agency about these bulbs and they proved that, if broken inside, these light bulbs release 20 times the maximum tolerable mercury concentration into the air. Energy efficient light bulbs can cause:     Migraines     Fatigue     Anxiety     Dizziness     Seizures     Cluster headaches ...

How To Make Your Own Alkaline Water

Image
Alkaline water includes a lot of health benefits. You will be impressed at how regularly drinking water with a pH greater than 7 can improve your own health. Here are the benefits and homemade recipe: 1. Detoxifies your body Drinking alkaline water is a great way to remove the toxins from your body. Alkaline properties are very effective and helpful whenever you have a cold or flu virus. What’s more, if you’ve had problems passing stool, alkaline water is a great colon cleanser. 2. Better Hydration Alkaline water is able to spread vitamins and minerals throughout your body at a far more rapid pace than regular drinking water.

As a result, ionized water is much more effective at hydrating and detoxifying your body. 3. Effective disease protection Alkaline water is able to balance your body’s acidity i...

Cancer in a Can: The Shocking True Story of How Pringles are Made

Image
It is most likely that nearly everyone reading this enjoys the taste of potato chips. On the other hand, they are obviously one of the most toxic processed foods you can consume, whether they’re created from actual potato shavings or not. Potato Chips Are Overloaded with Cancer-Causing Chemical To be aware of the nature of Pringles and other stackable chips, forget the idea that they come from actual potatoes in any perceptible way. The Pringles Company (in an effort to avoid taxes levied against “luxury foods” like chips in the UK) once even argued that the potato content of their chips was so low that they are technically not even potato chips. So if they’re not made of potatoes, what are they exactly? The process begins with a slurry of rice, wheat, corn, and potato flakes that are pressed into shape. This dough-like substance is then rolled out into an ultra-thin sheet cut into chip-cookies by a machine The chips move forward on a conveyor belt until they’re pressed onto molds, whi...

FDA Finally Admits Chicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic

Image
According to the Associated Press, FDA confirmed that chickens sold in markets are positive for inorganic arsenic. Arsenic is a toxic, cancer-causing chemical which can be lethal in high doses. The problem, in fact, lies in the origin of the arsenic which is given to the chickens. Arsenic is intentionally mixed with chicken feed. More than 70% of the chicken raised for meet are given arsenic in order to cause faster growth on less feed and give the healthy color of chicken, turkey and hog meat, according to the IATP`s report in 2006. The FDA admitted that, more than a half of the tested chicken had inorganic arsenic in their liver, which is the most harmful form of this cancer-causing chemical. Because of this reason, Pfizer had to stop producing the arsenic-containing drug called Roxarsone, which was frequently added to chicken feed. The Wall Street Journal reported: “The agency said it recently conducted a study of 100 broiler chickens that detected inorganic arsenic at higher levels...

5 Secret Tricks to Lose Weight At Any Age

Image
Every year, it seems, the needle on the scale is a little harder to budge. You cut back on portion size; you say, “No, thank you,” to dessert; you sign up for a Zumba class — and yet your jeans size goes up and your energy level goes down. What’s going on? Starting in our early 40s, our bodies go through a series of changes that profoundly affect digestion, metabolism, and other bodily functions. Thanks to hormonal and other changes, the very growth rate of our cells slows down. It’s just something we have to learn to work around. Sometimes, though, something’s gotten off track, metabolically speaking, and there’s an underlying medical issue that needs to be dealt with before the usual weight-loss measures will have any effect. Here’s a 5-step plan for understanding the challenges that prevent weight loss over 40, and for learning how to overcome them. 1. Get to know your body’s new biological rhythms — and adjust to them. When it comes to burning calories, it’s a fairly simple equatio...
