Measure your pH levels to show your state of alkalinity. Helps you manage diabetes, joint pain, and other common ailments through alkalinity.
Your pH score represents the amount of acid in your body.
While 7.0 is considered neutral, a score below 7 shows that your body is acidic while a score above indicates you have reduced the acidity to a healthy level.
For the scientifically inclined, pH – or power of hydrogen – is a measurement of the hydrogen ion concentration in your body.
Pure water has an equal number of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions.
An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions, so if you mix it with pure water, the water will acquire more hydrogen ions and the hydroxide ions will be overpowered.
An alkali, on the other hand, is a substance that soaks up hydrogen ions and thereby neutralises them.
If you mix it with pure water, it will absorb and neutralise some of the water’s hydrogen ions and thereby produce water with more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions.
If this feels too much like your unintelligible high school chemistry classes, remember only this:
• If you are not feeling your best, your body may have more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions, and if this is the case, it is too acidic.
• To alkalise it, consult an alkaline food chart and consume between 60-80% foods and drinks that neutralise those hydrogen ions.
