How to Alkalize Your Body as Quickly as Possible
Alkalize your body to create a proper pH balance. Potential of hydrogen or pH is a measurement of the balance of alkaline and acid within a substance. The pH increases as the substance increases in alkaline. Healthy body cells are alkaline or basic. The normal pH level for blood is 7.4. The benefits of alkalizing your body include increased energy, mental clarity, lower risks of disease, proper digestion, low body fat, and freedom from aches and pains.

Make friends with distilled water. Take it with you where ever you go. Think of it as flushing your system of harmful acidity and toxins. If without distilled water, regular water is good, but remember distilled is better.

Avoid coffee, tea (except green, black and herbal), soda, lemonade, orange juice and other drinks with an acidic pH. Acidic drinks are harsh to your digestive system and teeth. Often coffee, tea and sodas are consumed on a daily basis and flood the body pH. Because the body is 75 percent water, these acids are carried throughout the body and can affect every cell and organ.
