The key to restoring our body to its ideal pH is to create the proper balance of alkaline and acid forming foods. Since our body's pH level is slightly alkaline, our diet and nutrition should also reflect this. In this regard we should ingest at least 75% of alkalizing foods, like green vegetables or grasses, and never more than 20-25% of neutral and acidifying foods. Eating foods that are alkalizing transforms our body's balance from dangerously acidic to slightly above neutral.

Fresh vegetables, greens and grasses are an excellent anti-yeast and anti-fungal. Green grasses such as barley or wheat grass are some of the lowest-calorie, lowest-sugar and most nutrient-rich foods on earth, and contain high amounts of fiber. General rule of thump: vegetables for breakfast, vegetables for lunch, and vegetables for dinner.

Especially important for us humans is the green plant pigment chlorophyll. Chlorophyll contained in plants and grasses is identical to the blood of humans, except of one atom. It is the only known and existing substance that is able to transform sunlight into eatable energy - a process without there wouldn't be life on earth! In other words we "eat sunlight" when we eat salad, greens and vegetables.

Here are some simple strategies that can help to remove the acid wastes inside the body:

- Eliminate dairy products and replace milk with Soy or almond milk
- Eliminate red meat and reduce the portion size of any fish, chicken or turkey
- Consider using wraps to wrap your veggies and salads; sprouted tortilla wraps or organic flour tortillas are great to use; don't use corn wraps
- Take extra virgin olive oil along with flax seed oil, as often as you can
- Use bread with no or very little yeast
- Add tomatoes, avocados, cucumbers, zucchini, other vegetables, almonds, salmon or soba noodles, sunflower, pumpkin or sesame seeds to your salad
- Try to not consume processed food or if you do, limit it.
- Eat big salads as a whole meal
- Try to eliminate soda, coffee, tea, etc.
- In addition to the diet, drink alkalizing, energizing and oxygenating green sprouts powder drinks together with alkaline water

Should these habits be slowly but continually adapted, the body's pH level will gradually be balanced. Moreover, as soon as the acidic environment is eliminated, there will be no need for new fat cells to form. That means the fat in our body is no longer needed, and literally melts away.

When pH balance is achieved, the body naturally drops to its healthy weight, food cravings will diminish and energy levels will increase immensely. For more information on pH balance, alkaline diet, alkalizing products & how to lead a healthy life visit http://balance-ph.de/indexeng.html
