What Does "pH" Stand For and How is it Measured?

The term pH stands for "potential hydrogen" and measures hydrogen high in concentration of a solution. It is a measure of the relative acidity or alkalinity of a solution. the pH level indicates the body's acid/alkaline balance and tells the health of an individual. 

The scale runs from zero to 14. Zero is totally acidic and 14 is totally alkaline. The middle of the scale, at 7, is neutral. Quality water has a pH of 7.

An ideal range for pH should be 6.2 to 7.4, typically fluctuating as follows: 
• 6.2 to 7.0 at 7:00 a.m.
• 6.6 to 7.2 at 3:00 p.m.
• 7.0 to 7.4 at 9:00 p.m.

To get an accurate measure of your state of health, it is recommended that pH levels be recored three times a day - morning, afternoon and night- for 30 day. Any measurment of saliva or urine is acceptable, as long as you perform your pH test at the approximately same time each day.

Acidosis

If your pH level ranges between 4.5 and 5.5. In initial stages of acidosis, energy may still be excellent. However. over time, the body will go into "burn-out" mode as the aging process accelerates. 

What Causes Excess Acid in the Body?

It could be: 
• Easting too many proteins, grains or dairy products 
• Strenuous exercise 
• Excess stress 

Excess acid is excreted in urine, and is a signal that the body chemistry is not in balance. The acid level in the body may be a factor in determining an individuals health. 

What Happens When The Body is too Acidic?

While there are varying views in the scientific community, some researchers believe that your health can be impaired as a result of the following effects: 
•  Free radical oxidation occurs with greater ease, while antioxidant activity is impaired.
•  Vitamins and minerals from foods or supplements are not absorbed well.
•  Friendly bacteria in the small intestine die and the immune system is impaired.
