What can happen with High Acidic levels and imbalanced PH?

You know how your grandma always said “you gotta eat your greens”? Well she is just right. Eating Green foods helps keep your PH at the right levels, and your acidity low.

Improper pH levels and high acidic levels have contributed to: Immune system issues: Digestive System issues; Respiratory System issues; Nervous System issues; and Circulatory system and so forth.

Immune system issues: This is another one that is affected by improper PH levels. Let’s just say that acidic environments are great breading grounds for anaerobic pathogens. Bad pathogens remain dormant depending on the cellular PH, so if you have a high acidic environment it gives home to sickness germs that will make you ill.

Digestive System: Organs become confused and inflamed when the pancreas is exhausted from lack of alkaline minerals from enzyme rich foods. Indigestion, bloating, nausea, gastric reflux are all from excess acid, and not enough alkaline minerals in the intestine.

Respiratory System: Believe it or not but your cells need to breathe properly. Every cell in your body needs to breathe oxygen. When you have a high acidity ratio- then mucus wastes, and infections build up in your lungs which leads to colds; asthma; and bronchitis.

Nervous System : Never thought eating that all those cheeseburgers would weaken your nervous system did you? Acidity drains the nervous system and deprives it of energy. It makes the mental; physical; and emotional body weak.

Circulatory System: When you have high acidity- the body starts to line the arteries with plaque- axially trying to prevent leakage which can arrest imminent death. In your body’s way of keeping you alive- it axially makes it harder for blood to flow properly- thus causing your heart to be exhausted which is what we call a heart attack.
