Insulin resistance takes place when the body produces insulin, but cannot use it efficiently. Muscle, liver, and/or fat cells don’t respond properly to insulin and have problems absorbing glucose from the bloodstream, causing glucose to build up in the bloodstream instead of being absorbed into the cells. As a result, the body requires more insulin to upload glucose into the cells, so the beta cells...

When insulin resistance is left unchecked, numerous organs and body systems can become distressed. One of them is the liver, a critical organ for survival and one directly related to the digestive process. The liver is also programmed to release glucose when insulin is not present, to feed some of the body’s energy requirements. So, when liver cells become insulin resistant the liver thinks blood...

Acidosis can disrupt all cell functioning and cell sensitivity to insulin. Every cell in the body is surrounded by a fatty membrane that protects it from the surrounding extra cellular fluid. This fatty membrane is greatly involved in cellular respiration, allowing for nutrients and oxygen to enter the cell, and carbon dioxide and waste products to be expelled out. Acidic waste buildup allows cell...

Accumulated acid waste and inflammation are almost ALWAYS implicated as the cause or catalyst of the onset of disease, as well as the accelerator and the result of disease progression! That being said, excessive acid production in the body is a symptom of poor diet and lifestyle choices, in conjunction with environmental toxic exposure and the resultant retention of toxic waste in the body. Excessive...

Uric acid is a normal by-product of metabolism, and like other compounds and systems in the body, needs to be in balance. Even though excessive uric acid is a MAJOR risk factor for the development of gouty arthritis, hypertension, insulin resistance, stones, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, cancer, and just about any adverse condition you can think of, this acid paradoxically acts as a powerful DNA protective...

GOUT is a serious warning sign, not just a little acid buildup in the joints and extremities! Conventional physicians may not be aware of the real dangers of accumulating acid waste, but ironically, they do recognize the condition known as gout. It is highly logical to assume that this acid buildup did not occur overnight by any means. You don’t just wake up one morning with a toe, finger, or knee...

When the blood becomes "saturated" with metabolic acids beyond the buffer system’s ability to eliminate, along with chronic inflammation, excess acids get deposited or stored in your fat cells, tissues, joints, and organs (like kidney, gallbladder, liver), arterial walls, and blood vessels, etc. In order to temporarily neutralize blood, interstitial fluid, and tissue acid your body will combine alkaline...

The availability of qualitative (exploring reasons, opinions, ideas, hypothesis), and quantitative (using data to generate statistics using variables to identify patterns) research into the direct effect internal and external stimuli have on human pH bio-chemistry in relation to disease is accumulating, but not mainstream, as with many other hypothesis and theories regarding alternative medicine. This...

Besides well backed scientific theories and studies supporting acid/alkaline balance, there is plenty of anecdotal evidence from individual success stories, as well as those from nutritionists, holistic practitioners, and famous doctors that utilize this method to monitor their patient’s health status. All of these free-thinking individuals have been HIGHLY successful when implementing pH balancing...

MAINTAINING MICROBIOME BALANCE ALONE ENUNCIATES THE DIRE IMPORTANCE OF pH pH balance is without question of EXTREME importance for overall health and wellness to be possible! It’s not about being slightly alkaline in every area of the body to maintain this balance, as some may be falsely led to believe. The intestines, for instance, need to be on the acidic side for overall pH levels to be in sync....
