So what do you know about being more alkaline? Have you ever wondered about an alkaline based diet plan? Perhaps you’re interested in the reasons behind it, or maybe you haven’t the slightest clue what I’m talking about. Either way, this video is for you my friend!

There are valid reasons for you to grasp a broad understanding of the importance of having a more alkaline internal environment e.g your blood, and the benefits to your health. Also, having some knowledge in this area will empower you to better curate what goes into your mouth and body, and what needs to stay out.

Let’s dive straight in.

So let’s understand a bit better about our internal environment, in particular your blood. Your blood is very busy delivering all sorts of important things to your whole body. Not just carrying in oxygen to where it needs to go, and not just delivering nutrients where needed all over the body, it’s like your internal ecosystem, so it is very important for it to be PH balanced for it to function and do it’s work.

Science and history have now taught us, and Tony Robbins is a really great teacher in this area, that one of the important causes of illness and dis-ease in your body is where you have an overly acidic internal environment within your body. It causes inflammation, and a variety of symptoms and conditions that cause you problems over time.

So you may be thinking, well, how does all this additional acidity get into my body? You may be surprised to know that we do this to ourselves! It is largely caused by the types of foods you put in your mouth, and into your body. There are foods that are much more acidic than alkaline, and the key is to cultivate and train yourself to have a good ratio between acid and alkaline foods in your diet.

Examples of acid-forming foods are animal products including chicken and turkey, dairy products including eggs, refined sugar, white rice, white flour, coffee & tea, wine & beer.

Examples of alkaline-forming foods are green leafy vegetables, lemons, cucumber, watermelon, celery, cauliflower, sprouts, broccoli, red peppers, onions, garlic, melons, mangoes………there are so many!

We all want to know what little steps to take to improve our wellness each day, and this is an area, your food choices, that you can impact and really feel like you’re winning!

So as a guide, you want to try and have three quarters of your meal plate with alkaline foods, and the remaining on quarter with acid-forming foods (75% to 25%). Also, a quick habit to cultivate now, is to cut half a lemon and squeeze it into 2 cups of water, and drink it every morning! Your body will thank you over time.

I’d love to hear how you get on.
