Are You Acid or Alkaline??? What is your PH level?? Many of us have never even heard of such an expression. Acid? Alkaline? What's a PH Level? The closest most of us can even relate to any of these terms is the hair commercials where the young lady says, “I love my hair my PH is Great” or Acid reflux with Tums or Alka-Seltzer. All we know is that her hair looked great, and when I took the Tums or Alka-Seltzer I felt a whole lot better. So what’s up with this PH thing? I’m so glad you asked young “grass hopper”, let’s break it down and get scientific for a few minutes. PH represents (Potential of Hydrogen) and is used to measure the presence of Oxygen vs. lack of Oxygen in state. In the universe of molecules, Hydrogen is the only molecule that has a -1 and +1 ion charge, so it represents always trying to balance, the foundation of Naturopathy the science of balancing and going with the body not against. Naturopathy feeds the body so that the body may in turn heal itself. With all this said and done our bodies and every organ has a PH level that can usually be measured on a scale of 4.0 to 14.0 respectfully. The body’s goal is to balance the rate of Acid (lack of oxygen) and Alkaline (oxygen) at 80% Alkaline vs. 20% Acid. If not balanced properly on the cellular level, the cells lose oxygen and start to break down and they loose their form. Cells collapse due to dehydration, malnutrition, and some even form into cancerous cells or sickles as in sickle cell disease. This state is called Acidosis the progenitor of all chronic diseases. Though relatively uncommon the body can also have too much Alkaline usually 9.0 and higher where the chronic conditions and symptoms of Acid are the same. This state is called Alkalosis. Unbalanced PH causes the body to borrow and rob minerals, including calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium from vital organs and bones to buffer the acid and safely remove it from the body. This process can weaken these organs and bones over time. All chronic diseases live in this acidic environment therefore your goal is to maintain a proper PH level between (6.5- 7.5) which is considered to be neutral by utilizing PH testing strips for monitoring. Most testing strips can be purchased at any whole foods or herbal store and is tested through saliva and urine which utilizes a colored matrix chart for analysis. Testing should take place 2 hours before or 2 hours after a meal. There is a most important and profound and natural Phenomenon to remember about PH balance that you must understand CANCER, BACTERIA, FUNGUS, MOLD, VIRUSES, PARASITES and all toxins CANNOT LIVE IN AN ALL ALKALINE STATE. So what’s your goal? Eat more Alkalizing foods and less Acid forming foods. Adopt a more Plant based diet and your body has no choice but to repair itself. The reason acidosis is more common in our society is mostly due to the typical American diet, which is far too high in acid-producing animal products like meat, eggs and dairy, and far too low in alkaline- producing foods like fresh vegetables. Additionally, we eat acid-producing processed foods like white flour and sugar and drink acid-producing beverages like coffee and soft drinks. We use too many drugs, which are acid-forming; and we use artificial chemical sweeteners which are extremely acid-forming. One of the best things we can do to correct an overly-acid body is to clean up the diet and lifestyle. Get Dr. Paul’s Acid/Alkaline Food Chart and be amazed at what you thought was good for you may be causing you detrimental damage to your body and may be the reason for your chronic illness today. Here are just some of the symptoms of Acidosis: Cardiovascular damage, including the constriction of blood vessels and the reduction of oxygen. Weight gain problems, obesity and diabetes.

Recognized as the ancient "Bush Man Formula". The Onion is used for its medicinal anti-bacterial properties. With the extraction of these properties into a tea represents a process of alkalizing the entire blood stream and cleansing all internal organs and plaque build up. "Bush Formula" of Onion tea was given for the purpose of lowering blood pressure, cholesterol, cleansing organs, and in extreme cases clearing out blood clots in the legs within 48hours if taken every hour on the hour for the first 4 hours. The process for extracting and making tea goes as follow: 1. Boil a large pot of water. (Spring water preferred) 2. Pick medium to large size Onion. (Red Onion preferred because of higher medicinal qualities and Red Onion is the progenitor.) 3. Remove the husk of the Onion and with a knife put slits in the Onion without fully breaking. This allows the Onion to breath. 4. After water starts to boil put the Onion in the water and proceed to allow Onion to boil for 10mins or more. The key is to check the Onion and when it is as soft as a ball it is ready. 5. Remove the Onion and pour off Tea into a large thermos to drink all day. 6. The remaining Onion can be discarded because the essence is now in the tea. 7. Add honey or stevia for taste but the natural sweetness of the Onion's flavor in the tea will surprise you. 8. Remember this is all natural its "Food".
