Start your day with these 5 alkaline juices
The alkalinity of the bloodstream is very important to avoid diseases or illnesses.
Why?
Blood pH is slightly alkaline (7.4) and we consume a lot of acidic food which leaves acidic ash or filth and toxins in our body. If these unwanted morbid materials are not expelled naturally, it leads to a situation called Toxaemia which means toxins in blood and it would lead the way to ill-health and diseases.
To maintain alkalinity of the body, if we should include 2 simple habits in our day to day lives –
- Eat less acidic food – Also known as secondary food. Grains, legumes, animal products ( dairy & meat), processed food, etc come under this category.
- Eat more alkaline food – Also known as a primary food or cleansing food as they help to clean the toxins which are produced by acidic food.
Green vegetables, few kinds of grass, herbs, vegetables in general and fruits ( with few exceptions like citric food which are mildly acidic) are some of the alkaline foods. Including them in your daily diet is highly recommended to live a healthy life.
