Think of your body as a fish tank. Think of the importance of maintaining the integrity of the internal fluids of the body that we "swim" in daily. Imagine the fish in this tank are your cells and organ systems bathed in fluids, which transport food and remove wastes. Now imagine we back up a car and put the tailpipe up against the air intake filter that supplies the oxygen for the water in the tank. The water becomes filled with carbon monoxide, lowering the alkaline pH, creating and acidic pH environment, and threatening the health of the "fish," your cells and organs. What if we throw in too much food or the wrong kind of food (acid-producing food like dairy, sugar, and animal protein) and the fish are unable to consume or digest it all, and it starts to decompose and putrefy? Toxic acid waste and chemicals build up as the food breaks down, creating more acidic byproducts, altering the optimum alkaline pH. Basically, this is a small example of what we may be doing to our internal fluids every day. We are fouling them with pollution, smoking, drugs, excessive intake of food, over-consumption of acid-forming foods, and any number of transgressions which compromise the delicate balance of our internal alkaline fluids. Some of us have fish tanks (bodies) that are barely able to support life, yet we somehow manage to struggle from day to day, building more sever imbalances until there is the inevitable crash and debilitating chronic, disturbing and disorganizing symptoms to deal with. The pH level (the acid-alkaline measurement) of our internal fluids affects every cell in our bodies. Extended acid imbalances of any kind are not well tolerated by the body. Indeed, the entire metabolic process depends on a balanced internal alkaline environment. A chronically over-acidic pH corrodes body tissue, slowly eating into the 60,000 miles of veins and arteries like acid eating into marble. If left unchecked, it will interrupt all cellular activities and functions, from the beating of your heart to the neural firing of your brain. In summary, over-acidification interferes with life itself leading to all sickness and disease. Fat is an Acid Problem! Fat is actually an over-acidification problem. What does that mean? The body creates fat cells to carry acids away from your vital organs, so these acids literally don't choke your organs to death. Fat is saving your life! Fat is actually a response from the body to an alarming over-acidic condition. Healthy bodies are not overweight or underweight. A healthy body naturally maintains its own ideal weight. You can begin to restore health, balance, and harmony to your body by switching your pH measurement from acidic to alkaline. As alkalizing and oxygenation begins to take place, the body naturally begins to seek its own ideal weight. Allergies. The toxins produced within an overly acidic, oxygen deprived body may contribute significantly to what are often called the symptoms of allergy. In addition, the absorption of undigested proteins is a major cause of allergy conditions. The digestive system is weakened, which prevents the total breakdown of amino acids - often causing food allergies. This alone may produce a wide spectrum of severe allergic reactions. Fatigue. Fatigue is probably the major symptom or complaint of an overly acidic body. The toxins produced in an acidic body environment reduce the absorption of protein and minerals, which in turn weakens the body's ability to produce enzymes and hormones. This also interferes with the reconstruction of cells and other necessary components of energy production. The result is fatigue, poor endurance, an inability to add muscle tone, and general weakness." The good news is that greens that are found in the Green Qi restores and maintains the proper alkaline levels in your bodys tissue and blood. The following are the benefits you may expect when you restore the optimal pH: Shed body fat Improve muscle performance Prevent and recover from illness and disease Experience optimal health Have raging energy Look younger Lower your cholesterol Relieve heartburn and arthritis Eliminate aches and pains Reverse the effects of aging Increase stamina Prevents Acid Reflux Healthy Skin Lower Cholesterol Less Stress/Increased Sense of Well-Being Also, the USDA reports that 91 percent of Americans are not getting the recommended five servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Today's average diet often leads to low energy, increased body fat, and poor health. Neways Green Qi no only helps to support a healthy Ph level, it also offset the effects of poor nutrition, as well. Nearly 50 ingredients come together to give your body the nutrition if often needs but frequently lacks. Its rich supply of whole food nutrients works together to detoxify (helps to rid the body of excess estrogen and free radicals like heavy metals and pesticides) and nutrify your body - and the result is greater health and energy.
