The Critical Importance of pH in the Body - Part I

The level of pH in the body is determined by the acid/alkaline balance that exists in your blood stream.

The margin for leeway is very small- the pH has to be very close to perfect or things begin to shut down. Due to the American diet being so full of acidic foods, we need to do more to keep our systems in an alkaline state. In this, the first of a 3 Part Series, the basics of the pH concept are discussed.
