Gary Yourofsky is an American animal rights activist, and someone who clearly wears his heart on his sleeve when it comes to fighting for the rights of the animals and the planet. Yourofsky is currently banned from entering the UK and Canada, catergorised and an 'international terrorist'!

Balancing The pH In Your Body: Acid Vs Alkaline

 

Why is the western world so fat and sick? This video describes the bodies constant fight to balance out the pH. Our blood is needs to be between 7.35-7.45 pH, slightly alkaline. The body draws nutrients from the food it digests, which either acidify or alkalise the blood. When there is not enough nutrients to keep the blood slightly alkaline, the body leaches minerals from the bones and other places. For example, calcium is drawn from the bones to counteract all the calcium rich dairy consumed!

 

Stomach acid is 1 on the scale. Soft drinks, 2.5. Coffee, 3. Blood, 7.35-.45. Sea water, 8.5. Baking soda, 12.  

 

Diets high in animal products and caffeinated drinks are very acid forming, opposed to fruits and vegetables which alkalise. The high water content, vitamins and minerals in fruit and vegetables help to alkalise and balance the pH in the body. They take roughly and hour to digest, compared to a piece of meat which can take days!
