Alkaline Water for Better Colon Health
Neutralizing an Acid Colon
There is a now famous doctor on T.V. that has an infomercial about colon health and our toxic bodies. He is not the lone voice or authority on the subject these days. Our typical American diets are very acid producing, and I have written previous articles on the subject. An acid colon is does not happen easily. Many years of eating the wrong foods bring on the impaired colon function and digestive issues that may eventually bring on additional health problems and disease. I remember reading from a political science text book that if health is a measure of wealth, then we Americans are a poor lot.
I talk to people daily who assure me they eat very well, but by what measure? Compared with many of our European counterparts, we probably do not measure up very well. Decade by decade, we have become more obese, more prone to heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. So what is the reason? More processed foods, and a predominantly acid diet promote many negative health issues. In fact most disease has its' roots in poor colon health. It is arguably the most important organ in the body, and certainly affects the health of other organs.
An acid diet will encourage the growth of bad bacteria, and allow accumulations of toxic material to pocket in the intestinal tract. Over time, the colon can become diseased, and many common colon problems relate to an acid colon including, constipation, diarrhea, hard stools, and I.B.S. just to name a few. Many of our customers come to us with Hemorrhoids, Gout, or mild to severe colon or digestive problems. But all those problems have their roots in Candida, which is promoted and fed by an acid colon environment. Shifting to an Alkaline foods diet can have distinct bearing on colon health and begin to turn around years of abuse to the digestive tract. Most of the foods we like to eat in this country are on the acid producing side of alkaline vs. acid food picture. Please visit...
