How to fight inflammation (II)

Body acidity, alkalizing and alfalfa juice

Did you know that your body can be too acidic, that is to say your blood pH is too low. Acidity is one of the most common causes of inflammation, especially arthritic conditions. It is quite easy to over-acidify your body with a normal diet and the effects on your health can be debilitating. To put it simply, when your blood pH starts to drop you need to raise it which is done through ALKALIZING.

In October 2001, in an issue of the European Journal of Nutrition, an article talked about how sodium chloride has been almost unknowingly incorporated into modern diets in ludicrously copious amounts, a diet that leads to very high body acidity. The article also talks about how the elderly are worst effected by this contemporary diet which contains these large amounts of sodium chloride. It has also been stated in other medical journals that body acidity is directly linked to joint damage and inflammation.

A means to fix this is to cut any foods that contain any derivative of sodium chloride. The alfalfa plant is also an effective way to increase the pH balance in your blood which help towards curing or preventing arthritic conditions, particularly with gout.
