PH stands for power of hydrogen,.It is the measurement of hydrogen ion concentration in the body.The Ph scale ranges from 1 to 14,with 7 considered to be neutral .
Ph lower than 7 is considered to be acidic and Ph greater than 7 are basic alkaline.
The ideal PH is slightly alkaline (7.30 to 7.45)
An unbalanced system can create many health issues.
High acidity in stomach can cause indigestion ,nausea, bloating and inflammation of internal organs.
In circulatory system, body responds to acidity by lining the vessels with fatty plaques to prevent life threatning leaks.
Acidic environments are breeding grounds for anaerobic pathogens,whereas the high levels hydrogen of rich body fluids keep bad bacteria inactive.
When respiratory system is overloaded with acidity ,transport of oxygen is strangled.When ratio of acidity is too high waste in the form of mucous .infections and viruses build up in our lungs which lead to cold ,asthama and bronchitis.
TWO MAIN FORM OF ARTHITIS ,Rheumatoid arthitis and Osteoarthitis are related to PH imbalance and accumulationof acids deposits in joints and wrist.Accumulation of acids damages the cartilage when cells that produce lubricating synvoial fluids and bursa fluids are acidic .the result is dryness that irritates and swell the joints.
Acidity weakness the nervous system leaving you phsically and mentally
exhausted.
If body is overwhelmed by excess acids .one of the things our body starts doing is pulling alkaline minerals from bones and releasing them in blood .If this ocurrs frequently ,minerals build up in kidneys resulting painful kidney stones.
When acidity increases in muscle cells its disrupts the metabolism of breakdown of glucose and oxygen to energy ,this causes muscle to perform poorly.
