List of Alkaline Foods – The pH Balanced Diet

List of Alkaline Foods – The pH Balanced Diet
By: Christopher Vasey, ND Acidification in the body comes as a result of THREE primary things: 1. Eating too many acidifying foods which create an acid ash in your body. This is where proper diet comes in. 2. Not only that, but they proliferate in an acidic body. 3. By increasing your intake of alkaline-mineral rich water and alkaline supplements, you will replenish your body’s capacity to neutralize excess acids. For the purposes of identifying the acid or alkaline potential of foods, we have divided the following list into three basic categories – alkalizing, slightly acidifying, and very acidifying. The classification used here presents foods in a three-column chart. This is not a precise hierarchical organization, where each food occupies a set place with regard to the others; we currently lack the objective criteria necessary for establishing such an exact hierarchy. Nonetheless, the classification on these charts is valid for the majority of people. Fresh Fruits Berries Citrus Fruits Related:  Heart Health

S. Ali Myers: Decalcify the Pineal Gland with Alkaline Foods | Culture of Awareness Thanks to Golden Age of Gaia. Charge up your third eye (pineal gland) with high-vibrating, nutritionally enriched foods and drinks! Most people, especially in America, are consuming a diet that is detrimental to our spiritual growth. With the influx of low vibratory foods (ie. fast food, sodas, microwave dinners, sugars etc.), we are contracting more diseases and evolving slower spiritually than we have to. There are two types of foods: acid-forming or alkaline-forming. Your body is designed for your blood pH balance to be between 7.35-7.45. A high level of spiritual growth through pineal gland decalcification can be gained by eating more alkaline foods. Once you begin to consume more alkaline foods you will start to increase your intuition, ‘psychic’ powers, dreams, calmness, peace of mind, happiness, creativity, and overall energy! Note: Green supplements are a wonderful addition to any diet to get more chlorophyll and alkalinity. The foods listed below are all alkaline-forming. S.

Harta emoţională a durerii. Vezi explicaţia specialiştilor - Sănătate Ce înseamnă durerea? Durerea apare atunci când te loveşti, când ai o inflamaţie în corp sau când starea ta de spirit nu este tocmai bună. Mai mulţi specialişti au legat starea sufletească, depresia şi trăsăturile de personalitate de locurile dureroase din corp, pentru a crea harta emoţională a durerii. Vezi ce te doare şi ce cauze interioare are ea. Tipurile de durere din corp sunt legate de minte şi de spirit Durerea de cap poate însemna prea mult stres, nu neapărat o răceală, iar durerea de coapse poate indica o fire îndărătnică, care nu vrea să se adapteze la schimbările din viaţa personală. Fiecare tip de durere înseamnă că ceva nu funcţionează cum trebuie în interiorul tău. Durerea în gât indică o inflexibilitate, dorinţa de a rămâne pe drumul cunoscut şi încăpăţânare într-o situaţie tensionată. Durerea de umeri este strâns legată de abilitatea noastră de a purta cu bucurie greutăţile vieţii şi ceea ce ni se întâmplă fără voia noastră. Durerea de spate, de coloană

15 Amazing Health Benefits of Eating Avocados Many of us do not have to be “sold” on the benefits of avocados—their silky texture and versatile flavor make them hard not to love. But when studies show that avocado-eaters are healthier overall than their counterparts, we feel justified in our love-affair with avocados.

48 Foods To Balance Your Hormones & Give You Glowing Skin Who doesn't want a rocking reproductive system, balanced hormones, and glowing skin? I know I do, and eating certain nutrient dense foods will put anyone on this path. Whether we like it or not, hormones control our mood, digestion, energy, libido, metabolism, and how our skin looks. If we don't eat foods with the nutrients we need, our body cannot produce hormones correctly or maintain hormonal balance because it doesn't have the building blocks to do so. Whatever you're eating is either helping hormonal production, or causing unpredictable imbalances. The human body needs a balance of all three macronutrients, carbohydrates, protein, and especially fat. Fat is one of the most crucial elements for hormonal balance. Here's why: hormones are produced using certain fatty acids and cholesterol, so if we're missing these nutrients, hormone problems arise simply because the body doesn't have the nutrients it needs to make them. How to eat for hormonal balance 1. 2. 3. 4.

Keeping the Seven Chakras Healthy « The Culture of Awareness Written by Wes Annac, The Culture of Awareness I don’t claim to be an expert on the chakras, but I’ve learned a little bit about them. I decided to open up and see what tips I could receive about keeping them healthy, and the words you’ll read here are what resulted. I’m sure most of you know about the seven chakras, and we’re believed to have even more chakras beyond the basic seven that’ll come online as we continue to raise our vibration. Chakras are literal etheric energy centers that bring through and interpret the creative energy of the higher realms, and we unknowingly use the energy that comes through them to create/sustain our reality and keep our bodies physically healthy. Keeping our chakras healthy is as important as keeping our physical bodies healthy, and as our collective vibration continues to rise, more people will become aware of the chakras and the necessity to treat them the way they’re meant to be treated. #1: The root chakra #2: The sacral chakra #4: The heart chakra

Want Glowing Skin In 3 Weeks? Start With Your Digestion If you're working toward more radiant and glowing skin, you might be surprised to know that the answer lies more in your digestive tract rather than on how much you're spending on creams and cleansers. If we look a bit closer at how our digestive system works, it begins to make a lot of sense. Among other functions, our digestive system is the main place where we absorb beauty nutrients from our foods, as well as the main place where we dispel toxins through elimination. If the digestive system isn't working optimally, breakouts, eczema, redness and dull skin can ensue. When the digestive system struggles to eliminate toxins effectively, it will partner up with other organs and eliminate toxins that way. Since your skin is your body's largest organ, it's no surprise that acne, rosacea, and dermatitis crop up when something's off internally. What Causes Poor Digestion? Suboptimal digestion is quite common today, and is caused by numerous factors including: 1. 2. 3. 4. 6.
