Premature ageing skin
Acidosis accelerates free radical damage within your skin. Once a bundle of collagen is damaged from years of an acidic environment, the strand of collagen loses its elastic quality and the skin begins to sag.
Acidosis can also lead to interference with many of the body’s other functions, eyesight, memory, wrinkling, age-spots and a dysfunctional hormone system.
Acidosis causes a decrease in oxygen being carried around the body, effecting the overall capability of all the bodily functions. There are other reasons why we age, however an acidic pH also restricts the amount of oxygen being delivered to the tissues. This hinders growth and repair and in some cases creates a breeding ground for diseases, as a low oxygen acidic environment is ideal.
Red blood cells move though very small spaces called capillaries, this is how oxygen is transported to all the cells in your body, however acidosis corrodes the negative charge that stops the cells from sticking together making it difficult to circulate around the body. This results, in normal healthy cells being unable to function to their maximum potential, due to lack of oxygen and causing you to prematurely age. And guess what they release into your system when they die? More acid.
Look at these different samples of blood and how different this is all down to what you eat and how you feel. See videos of :
Osteoporosis
The western diet is very acidic and when food is broken down it creates an acidic environment within your body. If acid levels become to much for your blood, the excess is then dumped into tissues for storage as fat cells. Your body gets rid of most of these acids through urine or perspiration, what is then left is buffered with calcium and magnesium which turns excess acid into salt.
If there are insufficient amounts of calcium or magnesium in your diet or your body reserves are too low, it will be taken from your bones and muscles. Calcium being taken from your muscles or bones can easily lead to deficiencies and in extreme cases osteoporosis.
"If bone is mobilized to buffer only 1 mEq of acid each day, 15 % of the total body calcium in an average person is lost in a decade"(Wachman, A.; Bernstein, D.S. "Diet and osteoporosis" Lancet 1968, 1, 958-959.)
Excessive weight
Candida (yeast) that lives in your intestines feeds on fine sugars and carbohydrate, eating a lot of sugar creates the perfect breeding ground for Candida to over grow. This encourages abnormal cravings for sugar and sweet snacks usually leading to weight difficulties and the compelled feeling to eat more calories than are metabolically necessary. It can also cause water retention, creating a bloated look and feeling.
When Candida is reduced to a normal amount, many people experience significant weight loss - as much as 10-30% of one's body weight!
-
Cravings go
-
More energy
-
Less weight retention
It is important for health reasons, that you control yeast levels in your body. In smaller amounts it’s harmless but, in larger amounts it is unhealthy and ultimately can lead to uncontrollable sugar binging and weight gain.
