"ANTACIDS" and our Stomach Acids

Okay . . . so, yesterday we discovered how important it is to keep our "stomach acid" in the correct range on the pH balance scale for optimal health.

We also learned that this Western diet we all love so much . . . RAISES the pH level in the stomach to an UNHEALTHY "alkaline" level . . . causing heartburn, acid reflux, indigestion and an array of other health issues.

Now . . . "IF" . . . the level of "acidity" goes and stays above 3.5 on the pH balance scale in the stomach for any length of time . . . our health . . . is now in TROUBLE!!!!

Okay . . . so, let's think "LOGICALLY" here for a moment.

What do "ANTACIDS" do to the stomach's acid pH balance???

They "RAISE" it above the normal range of 1.5 to 3.5 . . . to an "unhealthy" level of ABOVE 5 . . .

And the reason for this is due to "ANTACIDS" being made of "ALKALIZING" element.

So, why does "alkalizing" give us some "RELIEF"???

Simply put . . . the "HIGHER" in "alkalinity" we go . . . the CALMER the stomach acids FEEL . . .

IT'S LIKE . . . PUTTING A FIRE OUT!!!

BUT . . . WE NEED THAT "FIRE" TO KILL BAD BACTERIA AND PATHOGENS TO BE HEALTHY!!!!

SO . . . WHY IS THIS A BAD THING???

Well . . . think about this . . .

If this Western diet . . . drinking . . . smoking . . . and too much stress . . .

"Causes" stomach acids to RISE to an "unhealthy" alkaline level . . . above a 4.0

Which causes symptoms of . . . heartburn, acid reflux, belching, bloating, etc.

Then ADDING . . . an "ANTACID" to calm those symptoms . . . makes for a formula of disaster!!!

Why you ask???

Well . . . Conventional medicine believes . . .

The reason we have "stomach acid" issues . . . acid reflux, heartburn, indigestion and upset stomach . . . is due to . . . TOO MUCH FIRE . . . and this "acid" being TOO LOW in the "normal" range of 1.5 to 3.5.

And "that's" why . . . they say . . . we need to take an "ANTACID" to alkaline and "raise" that "low acidity" in the stomach to be more "alkaline"

.

But . . . that's NOT CORRECT PEOPLE!!!

And tomorrow . . . I'll tell you why
