Collametics® Alkalinity Formula - pH Phenomenon is a patent pending dietary supplement developed by biochemist Kevin Meehan, OMD that assists the body in decreasing the harmful effects of an excess of acidic terrain while maintaining and optimizing cell ion properties which allows the body to perform at its maximum potential.
The body's entire metabolic process depends on an alkaline environment. When we ingest too many acidic or acid-producing foods, excess acid corrodes tissues and organs, which leads to illness, sickness and disease. In addition, acid also provides a favorable environment for harmful bacteria and other micro organism that can damage organs, glands and body cells.
The body's pH Level / pH Scale
The pH level is a measure of acidity or alkalinity, which takes numerical values from 0 (maximum acidity) through 7 (neutral) to 14 (maximum alkalinity). The saliva, blood, urine, digestive juices, mucus and the fluids inside and outside the body's cells each have an optimum pH level; blood pH is the most telling of all. The ideal blood pH is slightly alkaline, with a normal range of 7.35 to 7.45. If the pH moves below 6.8 or above 7.8, the cells of the body stop functioning and the human will die. Consequently, the body continually struggles to maintain its ideal pH.
Acidosis Will Interrupt Cellular Activities
In other words, over-acidified body cells (which leads to acidosis) will interrupt cellular activities and functions. It is the root of all sickness and disease. And it is also what causes overweight: to protect itself from potentially serious damage, the body creates new fat cells to store the extra acid. The key to restoring our body to its ideal pH is to create the proper balance of alkaline and acid forming foods. Since our body's pH level is slightly alkaline, our diet should also reflect this.
Therefore, we should ingest at least 75% of alkalizing foods, like green vegetables, and never more than 20-25% of neutral and acidifying foods. Eating foods that are alkalizing transforms our body's balance from dangerously acidic to slightly above neutral. Here are some simple strategies that can help to remove the acid wastes in the body (by adopting these habits the body's pH level will gradually be balanced).
How does Alkaline Formula help with acidosis? The formulation's premise is specific at maintaining optimal saturation of the alkaline forming minerals which buffer the acidic environment. Therefore, a balanced pH level keeps your body's immune system strong and working efficiently.
