If you are new to our pH Blog and haven't visited our educational site, http://www.phbodybalance.com/ , the focus is the practical application of pH science, and it represents a compilation of experience and small changes that will make a big difference in the quality of your life.
This is a great forum for sharing pH news and asking any and every pH question, keep in mind you are serving a wider audience than yourself - many of us have the same questions!
In the beginning big medicine won the discovery.
Alkalize, Alkaline, Alkalarian, pH balance (or pH imbalance) all come from the pH science of Andre Beauchamp.......he disagreed with his partner, Louis Pasteur, on the germ theory. It's been said that on Louis Pasteur's deathbed (while unaffected by big business) he concurred that Andre's work was more relevant.
Andre Beauchamp's work reveals that fungus, yeast, germs, bacteria, viruses, etc., thrive in an acidic environment (we don't catch them, we grow them) . If you own a swimming pool you know this to be true, and while we chemically induce pools to a neutral pH, for optimal health, we need to naturally induce our bodies to a neutral pH.
The integrity of the environment determines the health of the cell and our blood is 96% water, our bodies 70% water.
Today pH balance makes a lot of sense.
Fastforwarding from the mid 1800's, optimal health has become an issue of our times, we see over acidity expressed in a myriad of symptomologies, and pH balance is a recognized reasonable resolution with a simple execution.
Let's leave the science and focus on practical application. Small changes can make a huge difference in the way you feel, think and look.
Our bodies have intelligence, we just need to point them in the right direction and put our emphasis where it needs to be - cellular hydration, cellular nutrition, and cellular hydration - plus time of day is important, we heal while we sleep.
Our performance, symptoms, chronic symptoms, diagnosis and dis-ease, are expressions of our over acidification.
