There are some real gems in this book that only those with a keen eye and an open mind will find.
Excerpts from How to Count Calories Correctly:
What’s more important than calorie counting?
There are several things that I believe should be
ahead of calorie counting when it comes to attaining optimum health.
But one of the most important that very few
people know or care about is the bodies PH balance.
Proper knowledge of one’s PH levels will make
everything that has to do with nutrition all fall
into place. By focusing on maintaining optimum
PH balance as a priority you are forcing yourself to
make the absolute best choices in what you put
down the hatch to be utilized as fuel.
The PH balance is one of the best representations
of the body’s health status. When PH levels are off
this can decrease the body’s immune system.
The PH scale starts from 0 – 14 with 7 being neutral.
Water is considered neutral at 7 on the PH scale.
Foods that are Acidic in the body will register at below 7
on the PH scale. And foods that become Alkaline in the
body register at above 7 on the PH scale.
In simple terms The PH scale assesses the quantity of
oxygen present in the blood. If the blood carries high levels
of acidity then it loses the capacity to carry oxygen.
On the other hand if it borders on the high side of alkaline
levels then the blood would be carrying too much oxygen.
Fatal ranges on the PH scale are 7.8 on the alkaline side
and 6.8 and below on the Acidic side. Healthy levels are
between 7.35 and 7.45 as the body should be more Alkaline than Acidic.
See how fragile this balance is. If we eat unbalanced foods
then we run the risk of either becoming too Acidic or too
Alkaline in the blood stream.
This is why the easiest way to keep your eating habits
in check and see results and changes in your body is to
focus on keeping an optimum PH balance and everything else will fall into place.
How to restore and maintain optimum PH balance
It all depends on what a person’s health status is at that moment
as to whether they need to restore their PH levels or maintain them.
In my book Sleep Fast I talk about some eating styles that I tried
that many people would benefit from who have high acidic levels in
the body. This is the majority of Americans.
Some people believe in eating a high Alkaline diet all of the time.
These are vegans and some vegetarians who believe this. I believe
that everybody needs to switch things up from time to time as the
body is constantly changing.
In Sleep Fast I talk about how I know when my body is becoming
Acidic and when I should start eating more like a vegetarian or vegan,
then I also can tell when I need to eat more Acidic foods such as
fish, nuts, and seeds.
I believe in listening to my body. It never lies to me. It plays jokes
on me but it never lies! Those that need to restore their PH balance
usually are on the toxic side of acidic levels in the blood stream from
years and years of fast foods, and processed foods with additives
and preservatives, and chemical replacements that poison the body.
This book like all of my books are not Wikipedia reports.They are conversations that I want to have with you.
So dont be afraid to take advantage of this discounted price and download your copy so that you can join in on this conversation that we are having on subjects related to health and nutrition. I look forward to speaking with you on the other side!
Carpe Diem
