pH BALANCE
by Professional Botanicals


ACTION: 
Your pH level is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of your body. The body must maintain a slightly alkaline pH level between 7.36 and 7.44 in order to function properly and maintain optimum health. When you have an alkaline pH, your body can build and repair. At a body fluid pH of 7+ you can maintain the proper mineral level for good health. When you have an acidic pH your body is being torn down and is vulnerable to degenerative diseases of all types.

INDICATIONS MAY INCLUDE:
Acid toxicity, ulcers, too much junk food, cancer, abnormal cell growth, stress and illness.

KEY INGREDIENTS:



CALCIUM CARBONATE: The body use calcium to regulate pH balance. The human body starts out in a slightly alkaline state, but over time becomes more and more acidic. When the intake of alkaline foods is not high enough to neutralize acidity, then the body must use whatever calcium is available to maintain pH balance. Usually, the next best source of something alkaline is the calcium in your bones. A calcium supplement will help you preserve bone strength while also maintaining the pH level of your blood for other issues.

MAGNESIUM GLUCONATE: At all costs, our body must regulate normal blood pH. But under acidified conditions within the body, this effort exacts a steep price. When there's a lack of calcium and magnesium in the diet, for example, or when there is for excess intake of caffeine and sodas, the body will compromise the quality of its bones for the sake of its blood. In order to maintain pH balance in the blood, the alkaline “buffers” calcium and magnesium will be "spent" from the bones. Nowadays our diet tends to be very rich in saturated and trans fats, refined and simple sugars, and acid, and very poor in fiber, magnesium, and calcium. These foods have highly acidifying properties. Daily intake of acidifying foods leads to a chronic acidification (acidosis) of the internal environment of the body.

ECHINACEA LEAF: Echinacea has anti-fungal properties in it and can help restore your pH Balance.

POTASSIUM BICARBONATE and POTASSIUM ASPARTATE: Potassium is one of the electrolytes in the body that through intracellular osmosis keep a pH balance in body fluids and regulate blood pressure. A potassium deficiency may cause hypertension, congestive heart failure, and kidney stones. Potassium has turned out to be a crucial mineral for maintaining bone. High-potassium diets -- that is, those rich in fruits and vegetables -- slow bone loss, mainly by promoting alkalinity. So do supplements, such as Potassium bicarbonate and aspartate, forms of minerals which have an alkalizing effect.

SODIUM BICARBONATE: Sodium bicarbonate is used as a conventional treatment for disorders in which the blood is too acidic. It is also used as an over-the-counter remedy for heartburn. Intravenous sodium bicarbonate is used as a conventional treatment to reduce acidity of blood in serious conditions like shock, severe dehydration, and uncontrolled kidney failure or diabetes.

CHICKWEED: Chickweed is used as a detoxification agent, and is considered to be as effective as herbs such as burdock root for its blood cleansing abilities. The medicinal actions of chickweed are anti-rheumatic, astringent, carminative, demulcent, diuretic, emollient, expectorant, laxative, refrigerant, and vulnerary. The benefits of chickweed may in part be due to its high nutritional value. It is particularly high in ascorbic acid (vitamin C), gamma-linolenic acid (GLA, the omega-6 fatty acid derivative), saponins, niacin, riboflavin (B2) thiamin (B1), beta carotene (A), magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium, zinc, phosphorus, manganese, sodium, selenium and silica.

CHAMOMILE LEAF: Chamomile is known for its very mild, soothing effects on the body. It is excellent for any stress-induced conditions such as insomnia or nerves. As an anti-inflammatory, Chamomile tea can be used to ease the symptoms of arthritis, stiffness and rheumatism. It also calms the stomach and digestive system.

DANDELION ROOT: Dandelion contains high levels of potassium, is a rich source of iron and vitamins, and, ounce for ounce, contains more carotene than carrots. Dandelion leaves are a powerful diuretic. The roots act as a blood purifier that helps both the kidneys and the liver to remove toxins and poisons from the blood. The roots have been used for centuries to treat jaundice. Dandelion also acts as a mild laxative and improves appetite and digestion.

GENTIAN ROOT: Gentian tincture can treat indigestion or hyperacid gastritis with the power of eliminating hard sensations in the stomach or nausea before and after meals.

BURDOCK ROOT: This herb has been used for centuries as a blood purifier; clearing the blood stream of some toxins, and as a diuretic. As a natural antibiotic it helps rid the body of infections.

Obtaining Optimum Results:
For optimum results the key word is commitment. Unlike prescription and OTC medications which may cause an immediate response in the body, herbal and nutrient therapy can be a slower process. Commitment to a regular daily supplement schedule is vital, as well as a commitment to taking supplements over a period of time, which could be anywhere from several weeks to several months. This allows enough time for the nutrients and herbs to facilitate change and repair in the body at a cellular level and bring about the desired results.

How the Body Heals:
When taking certain products, you may feel worse before you begin to feel better, and this is more likely with Detox Products. As you move towards balance by adding herbal and nutritional supplements to your lifestyle, healing begins to occur. As part of the healing process, and to set the stage for regeneration, the body could begin to eliminate toxic residues which may have built up over many years. As the nutrients and herbs promote optimum cellular function, old tissues are replaced with new. During the initial phase of healing, as your body begins to clean house (detoxify), you may experience headache, flu-like symptoms or fatigue. This can be relieved by DRINKING LOTS OF WATER and, if necessary, cutting back on your supplements to allow the body to adjust more slowly and comfortably.
