pH Test Kit 5-pack with 5 free refills

By testing your pH you can determine quickly and easily, in the privacy of your own home, what your urine pH is. Determining your urinary pH is generally a good indicator of how acid or base your total body pH is. When urinary pH is continuously between 6.5 in the a.m. and 7.5 by evening, you're functioning in a healthy range. An acid pH, or "acidosis," is the term used to describe the imbalanced acidic condition of all our body fluids. Virtually all cellular functions of the body are sensitive to the pH of their fluids. If the pH deviates too far to the acid side, cells become poisoned in their own toxic acidic wastes and die. Most high protein foods (such as meat, fish, poultry and eggs), nearly all carbohydrates (including grains, breads, pastas) and fats are "acid-forming." And most fruits and vegetables are "base-forming." Although citrus fruits, such as oranges and grapefruit, contain organic acids and may have an acid taste, they are not acid forming when metabolized, leaving no acidic residue. Similarly, Free-Form Amino Acids are not acid-forming, but instead offer unique buffering capabilities to the body. To get rid of an acid pH, watching your diet can help, especially by increasing the number of fruits and vegetables you eat while decreasing the amounts of acid-forming foods consumed. But an easier way is to alkalize your system while continuing to enjoy the foods you prefer! If you have taken your saliva and urine pH first thing in the morning and it is averaging 5.0 pH, you do need to take effective action. If you indeed have a pH of 5.0, you are not assimilating the food and supplements you are taking orally that is why it is very important for you to get minerals through your skin with the baths. Drink only water that is 7.2 to 7.4 pH. Use organic baking soda (no aluminum!) to increase the pH of your water. You can take baths that contain 2 cups of Epsom Salts. Apple cider vinegar, high in potassium, balances pH and watermelon does too.
