Every now and then I like to check my pH levels to make sure my body is well balanced. I don't want to be too acidic nor too alkaline. Too much of something only brings chaos to the body.
What is pH you ask? Well, pH is potential of hydrogen, the acid-to-alkaline ratio in all matter. The body is designed to eliminate or neutralize excess acid, but because we constantly eat poorly, take many medications, stress, etc., acidity tends to build up in our body and begins to settle in our tissues, bones, and muscles and chaos occurs. Because of this, we tend to be more acidic instead of properly pH balanced. We then start to notice common signs of imbalance in our bodies: illnesses, diseases, or premature aging.
These pH strips have allowed me to keep an eye on my health. It brings me awareness should I need to eat more greens or if I am consuming too much sweet bread. I feel comfortable knowing that my pH is at 7.25 and the color was more on the green side as opposed to a year ago when the color was yellow. Yellow is not good. That means too much acid. A more desirable level would be more toward the green side. My pH has gotten better because I have added more fresh fruits and vegetables to my diet. My order also came with an eBook and a food chart that will assist me with delicious recipes like Cool Coconut Parsley Smoothie. I would have never thought of mixing coconut and parsley if I hadn't seen this book. But now, I can comfortably vary the foods we eat and drink and still stay within a normal pH.
I have tried the pH test tape before, but it would bleed and change to various colors, so I was confused as to what my pH levels really were. This pH strip only took 15 seconds. It is quick and accurate. Boom! One reading...15 seconds...Here you go! I like that you get a quick reading with these pH strips. They can be tested with your saliva or urine. I prefer testing with my saliva. PH levels will vary from person to person and be different throughout the day due to food, drinks, stress, and medications which affect a change in your pH levels. I tested 2 children (my niece and my son) and 4 adults (my sisters, my mom, and myself). Our results all varied. Some of us had 7.5, 7.25, while others were at 6.5. I like to test about twice a week. I think my pH is good, varying from 7.0 to 7.25. I will continue monitoring my pH with these pH strips to keep myself in check. Have you checked yours lately?
