TOXIC Overload!
Take This Short Quiz To Determine Your Body Toxicity Risk
Having too acidic environment in your body will make you prone to numerous diseases and health condition. Acidity affects each of your organs, including your heart, lungs, intestines, liver, brain, kidneys, and skin.
When the body is overly acidic, it becomes a subject of chronic inflammation – the culprit behind different ailments and diseases.
Consuming processed and fast foods on a regular basis maintains the acidic state of your body. Your body, in turn, tries to neutralize and get rid of the acid which results in losing important minerals.
In fact, this is the main cause of osteoporosis in many people. High acidity levels cause depletion of minerals crucial for bones’ strength and health, such as magnesium, calcium, potassium, and sodium. When your body becomes deficient in these minerals, it becomes prone to cancer, and other serious diseases.
Food products which are highly acidic include dairy products, most meats, grains, coffee, refined sugar, highly processed foods, sugar substitutes, and GMO foods.
So, when you consume these foods, your body starts to metabolize them. The end products would be acidic waste which needs to be neutralized and removed from the body. You can achieve that by consuming plenty of alkaline foods.

Our body’s tissues and fluids are alkaline, except for stomach. So, when one body area tries to regulate its pH value, it takes alkalizing elements from another area, thus distorting its pH levels.
Therefore, you have to help your body in this alkalization process, and you’ll do that by changing your lifestyle and diet.
