Alkalize Your Diet
Because a majority of Americans live on processed foods that have been stripped of essential nutrients, most of us could use more alkaline food in our diets. Alkaline foods are higher than 7.0 on the pH scale. Your blood’s optimal pH level should be slightly alkaline at 7.365 pH. This means that the body functions best when the majority of your diet consists of alkaline foods.
The majority of alkalizing foods are vegetables. According to Dr. Robert Young’s relative pH scale, cucumbers, sprouts, wheatgrass, and barley grass are a few of the most alkalizing foods on the planet. These foods are all close to 30.0 on the relative pH scale. Cabbage, celery, garlic, spinach, tomatoes, avocados, fresh soybeans, and lemons are also very alkaline. They range from about 10.0-15.0 on the pH scale.
On the other end of the spectrum are foods that are very acidic. Pork, beef, vinegar, liquor, and processed fruit juice are all below negative 30.0 on the relative pH scale. Also close to negative 30.0 are beer, coffee, tea, and chocolate. Chicken, eggs, hard cheese, and white sugar are all in between -15.0 and -20.0.
When trying to adjust your diet to include more alkaline foods, you should do it gradually instead of all at once. Making too many changes to your diet at one time can be overwhelming and it is much harder to stick with instant changes for a long period of time.
Instead of the all at once approach; try introducing just one or two new alkalizing foods into your diet at a time. For instance, you could try incorporating cucumbers and tomatoes into your meals more often. Or you could try drinking green tea two or three times a week.
After you have become accustomed to a few alkaline foods, you can begin to think about cutting down slightly on acidic foods. It is a lot easier to simply cut back on acidic foods instead of trying to abandon them altogether. When you begin to eat or drink less and less of an acidic substance, you can then start to think about taking it out of your diet completely, if you wish.
If you are looking for alkaline recipes, you should check out Dr. Young’s book called the ph miracle . It is packed full of useful information in addition to the delicious recipes. You might also want to consider purchasing an alkalizing water filter. Drinking this water can work wonders for low pH levels because it is much more alkaline than tap or filtered water.
Are You Getting Enough Alkaline?
Are you getting enough alkaline food in your diet? Dr. Robert Young believes that, for a majority of Americans, the answer is no. Typically, the ideal diet should consist of 75-80% alkaline foods and 20-25% acidic foods. For many of us, myself included, our diets are actually much closer 75% acid and 25% alkaline.
Consuming alkaline foods is critical to your health. As Dr. Young has stated, “regulating your body’s acid/alkaline chemistry through simple changes in diet can result in weight loss, increased stamina and strength, a stronger immune system and a greater sense of well being.” This is why it is important to consume about 3-4 times as much alkaline foods as acidic foods.
It can be difficult to eat a lot of alkaline foods because acidic foods are typically much more appealing and tasty to most people. Luckily, Dr. Young and his wife, Shelley, have written a book called “The pH Miracle.” This book is full of alkaline recipes that taste good and are also good for you.
The recipes in the book include a variety main dishes, salads, snacks, desserts, shakes, drinks, & sauces. So, for example, for a meal you could have Romaine Peppered Salad, Rawsome Redford Pizza, Fresh Silky Almond Milk to drink, and Super Soy Pudding for dessert. All of these recipes fit in with the 80% alkaline, 20% acid ph miracle diet.
In addition to meals, there are also many alkaline foods you can snack on. Certain nuts like almonds, hazel, macadamia, pecan, pine, pumpkin, walnuts, and sunflower seeds are very alkaline and are rich in protein, minerals, fats, and vitamins. Taking a bag of these kinds of nuts to work and snacking on them throughout the day is a great way to alkalize your diet.
Another thing you can do to raise your pH level is drink alkaline water. There are special filters out there that alkalize and filter water. This type of water is much more alkaline than regular water. Dr. Young also sells this kind of water in bottles. Purchasing a regular water filter will also make your water more alkaline. It will not be quite as high on the pH scale as alkaline water, but it will still be better for you than regular tap water.
If you just can’t get enough alkaline foods in your diet, you may want to think about taking supplements. There are several product out there such as liquid chlorophyll, iron, calcium, and magnesium, that make your body more alkaline.

Creating a Healthier You Through the PH Miracle
Everyone is always looking for the next new diet to help them lose weight. Many of these diets will help you lose weight initially but they are either unhealthy or you will not be able to maintain the weight loss. Few actually increase your health and energy while helping you lose weight. The ph miracle is a book written by Dr. Robert Young that will help you balance your diet and reclaim control over your health.
The idea behind the book is that you can significantly increase your health through some basic adjustments in your diet that will adjust your PH. A recognizable change can be seen in very little time and your diet adjustments can be made with surprisingly little extra expense to you.
Dr. Young has experience researching thousands of blood slides and comparing their PH with the health of the blood and person. Through his work he has become the most preeminent nutritional microbiologist in history and has been able to help people cure their ailments.
Dr Young posits that blood that is too acidic, made acidic from a poor diet, can cause acne, allergies, fatigue, asthma, food fungus, insomnia and even cancers. Dr. Young argues that the remnants of a poor diet cause acidity that can cause some of these ailments.
His book and diet will teach you how to maintain a proper balance that will cure these ailments and give you the energy of a child.
The diet encourages you to test your own alkalinity easily and inexpensively. The diet encourages you to eat alkaline foods, which will increase your energy and heal your ailments. It also can help you lose weight by balancing acid and base forming foods.
The body’s PH is most often affected by a person’s diet, but there are other factors that can affect it. A person’s emotions can significantly increase their acidity. This can be seen in medical patients who have bad attitudes toward their medical treatment and therefore cannot be healed in hospitals. Dr Young teaches that in order to have a healthy body one must think positively and when one thinks positively one will have a healthy body.
He calls cancer a four letter word – ACID and claims that by following a PH Miracle diet you can cure yourself of cancer. For more information on the diet you can visit his website or pick up a copy of his book at your local bookstore.

Can modifying the acid level of your blood help you lose weight?
I have read “The pH Miracle” by Dr. Robert Young in which he claims that your blood is naturally alkaline (pH of 7.365) and that eating and drinking highly acidic foods (sweets, alcohol, coffee) lowers the pH of your blood and causes you to get fat because your body creates the fat in order to store the excess acid and thereby protect your body’s organs from the excess acid.
Has anyone had any experience with the process of keeping your blood more alkaline and losing weight as a result?
What are the health effects of blood that is too ACIDIC?
And has anyone took steps to make it more alkali through diet and supplements?
I just read PH Miracle book by Dr. Young. It all made sense and matched my health issues.
Any safe alternative therapies for this condition?
