Basically all degenerative diseases like cancer, arthritis, heart disease and osteoporosis thrive in an acidic environment. Our bodies work hard at keeping the blood pH at 7.4, which is slightly alkaline (anything below 7 is acidic). This is done by making deposits and withdrawals of acid and alkaline minerals from places like your bones, tissues and fluids like your saliva. Read on and learn easy ways to alkalize…
I am sure you have heard that that fruits and veggies are good for you. There are many reasons for this, but the reason I want to talk about in this article is how these foods help keep your acid-alkaline balance at a healthy level.

There are many things which contribute to the development of heart disease and problems such as a heart attack. Some factors that have been implicated include:
- cholesterol and other blood fats (although this appears to have been over emphasized),
- coronary inflammation (homocysteine and C-reactive protein),
- blood clotting,
- weight,
- blood pressure,
- diabetes,
- syndrome X (believed to be a product of insulin resistance),
- aerobic capacity,
- smoking and
- personality.
As well as these there are genetic factors. This is a variable over which we have no control. If you do have a family history of heart disease this does not necessarily mean that you will develop heart disease yourself. There are many factors, besides genetics, that go into the development of heart disease. It is these factors that can be changed and thereby reduce your risk of developing heart disease. One area where you are able to bring about change is your blood pressure.
