pH Balance:
• Dehydration is a primary reason for daytime fatigue and can slow down your metabolism as much as 3%
• Just a 1%-2% drop in body water can impair your mental focus, concentration, and physical performance.
• Beverages that contain caffeine such as colas, coffee, or tea actually stimulate fluid loss and promote dehydration.

• Exercise and prolonged activity cause you to lose vital electrolytes, which are critical for nerve impulses and muscle contractions.
• Quicky replenishing lost electrolytes is essential for peak physical performance.
• Major electrolytes (minerals) needed by your body are calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and chloride.
• Disease and illness thrive in an acidic environment but can't survive in an alkaline environment.
• "Alkalinity" equals oxygen and oxygen equals good health.
• To maintain healthy pH balance, your body must have an abundant supply of ionic minerals - especially calcium.
•

STRESS is one of the most significant causes of acidic conditions in your body.

pH Balance: What is pH and why does yours matter?

pH is one of the most important things your need to learn about in terms of health or disease.  In order for your body's cells to function at peak capacity, your body needs to ensure that its pH levels-especially your blood-are in a slightly alkaline state (that means with a pH of slightly more than 7). 

Ph=the measure of hydrogen and oxygen ions (electrically charges particles) in a solution.  Your blood, urine, saliva, digestive juices, mucus, and the fluids inside and outside your cells each have an optimum pH level.  While your digestive juices are quite acidic, your blood must be slightly alkaline.  Why should your blood be slightly alkaline? 

One of its jobs is to carry oxygen-the basis for most of the biochemical reactions that sustain life-to cells in your body, so your blood has to be alkaline.  Your body will buffer the acidity of your blood at all costs-your body won't let your blood become acidic and therefore unable to carry oxygen-or you won't survive. 

pH Power!
In this demonstration you'll see how you can dramatically raise the alkalinity level of your water.
