Dr. Malkmus: What We Can Learn About pH
The information you are about to read could be some of the most valuable information regarding your health and longevity you have ever read. This information can make the difference between a long healthy life and a sickness filled life along with an early and untimely death. Following is some valuable information to help us better understand the importance of maintaining proper pH balance within the body:
The pH scale runs from “0” (extremely acid) to “14” (extremely alkaline). A pH of 0-6.9 is acid; 7 is neutral, 7.1 to 14, is alkaline. Each unit increases by a factor of 10. To neutralize 1 part of acid requires 10 parts of alkalinity.
The pH of the blood is 7.35 to 7.45 (slightly alkaline)
If the pH of the blood drops below 7:0, and into the acid zone, YOU DIE! Likewise if the blood becomes too alkaline you die.
