Health Tips On Alkaline Food To Prevent Heart Disease (Part 1)

Keep your body’s chemistry alkaline. Alkaline-producing foods, which include most fruits and vegetables, leave a digested ash where most of the elements that are beneficial – calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium - are positively charged ions. The residual ash of acid-producing goods, such as diary products, grains (including wheat), meats and sweets, contains a greater number of negatively charged ions, including chlorine, iodine and phosphorous. Infectious viruses live better in a acidic environment than in alkaline environment. People who keep their bodies in a predominantly alkaline state also have a reduced risk of developing degenerative and inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, cancer and heart disease.

A simple but highly effective way to help keep your body chemistry alkaline is to squeeze the juice of one-half of a ripe lemon in a glass of water upon rising in the morning. Sip the drink slowly while going through your morning routine. Throughout the day, for lunch, midday snacks and dinner, keep your body chemistry balanced by eating and drinking alkaline-forming foods and juices. Doing so will help prevent colds, flu, and other infectious diseases, as well as degenerative and inflammatory conditions.
