How Affirmations Can Help You as a Weight Loss Tool?

How Affirmations Can Help You as a Weight Loss Tool?
 
 The word "affirmation" means, "to make firm". Affirmations are mind statements, which you consciously focus on to make firm with the intention of achieving the results you desire. They are also known as "auto-suggestion" or "subconscious  mind programming".
 
When you go to the history of affirmation, you find that affirmations have been used centuries back. Even today they are still powerful method of goal attainment. People from all walks of life can benefit from using affirmations, to make positive changes in their health, happiness, relationships, prosperity, work and other areas. There are many areas in life to which affirmations may be applied!!
 
Weight loss is one among them! Each one of us knows that weight loss is effectively brought only through consistent activities like nutrition, food, exercise and our routine disciplined life. Even though there are several medicines, supplements, equipments are available in the market those can give you only a temporary relief from your weight problem.
 
Often you forget the famous quote, "when there is a will, there is a way". While trying all the above medicines and tools, you are not focusing on the power of your will (mind), and that is the reason the results obtained are of temporary nature. Our mind is capable of making us more happy and healthy. You don't have to pay a single penny to program your mind with positive statements called "affirmations".
 
If you are following a proper diet, exercise, disciplined life along with the regular practice of affirmations you can change your way of life. You can use affirmations for all your other physical problems like, Blood Pressure, Diabetes, Back pain, Arthritis, Asthma and so on. Simply create your affirmation statements for that specific purpose. 
 
You can apply below mentioned sample affirmations to permanently correct your over weight problem;
 
·         I am not hungry
·         I do not want to snack between meals
·         I do not have to finish the food on my plate
·         I do not want fatty or fried foods
·         I want to eat healthy
·         I feel better when I eat right
·         I like healthy foods
·         I do not feel like eating fatty or heavy foods
·         I am meant to be thin
·         I only eat for survival
·         I like healthy walking
·         I love exercise 
 
Practice: Use any one or two of the above affirmation for your daily practice. Repeat the affirmation at least 15 times either in the morning or in the night, before you go to bed. For better results write the selected affirmation for 15 times as your subconscious mind will catch the written words more receptively than while you read loudly.
 
An affirmation is not complete if you are not visualizing (feeling) yourself as slim, along with the practice. Visualization plays a vital role in mind programming. Hence, see yourself as "slim" throughout the practice. Also play some good relaxation music, while you practice each session. In due course, you will notice some miracles on your way!!

    In just 20 minutes you can start burning fat Nov 2006
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I was just notified by a colleague of mine that he had a big problem on his hands with his current group of new students... but he finally figured out a way that they can now start to burn more fat in just 20 minutes! Fat Burning

    10+ year fitness expert and mentor Rob Poulos has just re- released his proven and popular Fat Burning Furnace system. He has told me that the new students who have been snatching up a good number of the only 200 copies available were a bit overwhelmed when they got the system. Why? Because it's huge and jam packed with fat burning info. They were so excited to get started but knew they had to commit some time to going through all of the detailed content to use it properly. Rob wanted to make it even easier for them to get started burning fat right away, so he created a 20-minute version of the system so they can actually get started with many of the fat burning and muscle building "secrets" he reveals after just 20 minutes of reading. His new students are just gushing over this new feature to his system. What does this mean to you? If you are even the least bit interested in burning more fat faster, then you'll have the chance to do so in just 20 minutes with Rob's Fat Burning Furnace system. But I urge you to give it a look now, because after just 2 days on the market, he's already sold close to 100 of those 200 copies. You can check out the system here: fatburningfurnace

    Claim your complimentary Consumer Fitness Guide Now Oct 2006
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If you're like most people, you might be confused about the huge amount of information both online and offline about fitness. There's all sorts of products and so-called gurus teaching how to build muscle, burn fat, get healthy, and more. But how do you know what's for real? And how can you find the time to discover for yourself the real truth about fitness? That's why I'm writing

    I just received a 44-page consumer guide called "Power Fitness Principles" that reveals in clear and simple language the core truths about fitness. Armed with this knowledge, you should be able to quickly and easily evaluate any fitness method or product on the market to see if it "has teeth". fatburningfurnace

    It was recently written by 10+ year fitness expert and enthusiast, Rob Poulos. Over the past decade, Rob bought every fitness method and system he could get his hands on and became somewhat of a "mad scientist" when he decided to begin testing these methods ruthlessly on himself and others who volunteered to help, in effect becoming "guinea pigs". Little by little, he took note of what really worked and what didn't. More importantly, Rob was also after what was realistic in a normal person's schedule. Nutrition and fitness methods that required extraordinary effort or long hours in the gym just didn't cut it for Rob. He wanted to be in great shape, but he wanted to have a life, too. And when the dust settled, Rob discovered a core group of fitness fundamentals that he was shocked more people didn't know about. In fact, he believes that if every one knew about these "Power Fitness Principles", there would be a lot more people enjoying healthier lives without bouncing from one fad diet to the next.

    So here they are... Rob gave me permission to give a copy of his brand new "Power Fitness Principles" consumer guide to you as my reader. It's completely "on the house" and my gift to you.
    Here's your complimentary download page:
    Click Here:fatburningfurnace
    So whatever your age is, whether you're male or female, and whether you're trying to shave off some extra pounds, build more muscle, or just get into better overall health, Rob's "Power Fitness Principles" is for you.
    Honestly, after reading this, I was shocked that Rob's giving this information away for nothing. Then he told me that he's planning on probably selling this guide in the future; but for now, he wants as many people as possible to discover these fundamental "truths" about fitness, so that's why he's giving them away for a short time.
    I hope you enjoy Rob's "Power Fitness Principles" consumer guide as much as I have.
    To your health and fitness, Georgette Author of Sure Victory

    p.s. You may have seen an early version of this report this past summer. If so, you need to get this updated, longer version, as it addresses some critical "Missing Questions" unintentionally left out of the first draft. Here's the page again: fatburningfurnace

    Breakfast: It really is for champions?

    We have been told time and time again that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, yet nearly one-fifth of all adults choose to pass on the Wheaties. What is the big deal about breakfast? Can a solid breakfast really make or break your fitness goals? Read on as I answer your most pressing questions on this popular subject…

    Why eat Breakfast?
    Let’s dissect the word ‘breakfast’. When you take it apart you find two words with an all-important hidden message. Break – Fast. I can hear your wheels spinning on this one! That’s right, breakfast is the meal that breaks the fast that your body goes into each and every night when you sleep.

    When breakfast is skipped, your body continues to fast until you eat later in the day.

    This is a problem for two reasons.

    Problem #1: Your brain needs fuel to function at its peak. This fuel comes in the form of glucose derived from food and is needed to walk, talk and perform all other activities. When you skip breakfast your brain is forced to work extra hard in breaking down stored carbohydrates or to turn fats and proteins into usable forms of glucose. Eating breakfast has been proven to improve concentration, increase your problem solving capabilities, enhance overall mental performance and even boosts your memory and mood.

    Problem #2: Your metabolism will go into ‘famine’ mode. Three to four hours after you eat, your metabolism shuts down and acts as if it needs to store food. This is a great function to have if a famine were to break out, leaving you without food for days. Since this is likely not the case for you, it is pretty annoying when your body starts packing on the pounds in an attempt to protect you from starvation! Eating breakfast communicates with your body the fact that you are healthy, well fed and not in need of extra fat storage.

    What about the cut calories?
    “Skipping breakfast is how I cut calories out of my diet.” I can’t tell you how often I hear this response when I encourage people to eat breakfast. What these “calorie cutters” don’t realize is that they are the ones who turn to snacking later in the day in an attempt to ward off low energy levels. Allowing your body to become over-hungry leads to distorted satiety signals, and leaves the door wide open for overeating later in the day.

    Start your day with breakfast and then continue to eat smaller meals and snacks throughout the day for optimal calorie burning.

    What’s for Breakfast?
    Now that you are convinced that breakfast is worth your time, it’s time to decide what to have! A recent study done by FoodWatch, a Minnesota-based consulting firm that watches food trends, revealed that most people are basically eating dessert for breakfast, due to the high quantities of on-the-go breakfast foods that are processed, packaged and pumped full of refined carbohydrates. Another study recently proved that high fiber, low fat breakfasts promote healthy weight control much more effectively than highly refined breakfast foods.

    Try the following On-The-Go Breakfast Selections for a blend of hearty carbohydrates, protein and fat and experience optimal morning energy.

    • Low Fat Yogurt with Fresh Fruit
    • Low Fat Cottage Cheese and a Cherry Oatmeal Muffin (see recipe below)
    • Hard Boiled Egg and Whole Wheat Toast
    • Scrambled Egg White on Half a Bagel
    • Whole Wheat Tortilla rolled with Scrambled Egg Beaters and Salsa
    • Soy Milk with Whole Grain Cereal and Fresh Fruit

    Sleep It Off

    Did you know that sleep is a vital component for weight loss? A study done at the University of Chicago concluded that people who got less than four hours of sleep actually had increased levels of the hormone cortisol and insulin—which are linked to a difficulty in processing carbohydrates. Tonight go to bed early, aim for 8 hours of sleep, and wake up fitter.

    Cherry Oatmeal Muffins

    Every bite of this hearty muffin is packed with pure energy! Oatmeal and dried cherries blend with fresh oranges for a low-fat, low-sugar breakfast taste that is far from ordinary. Yield 12 tasty muffins.

    Ingredients:

    • 1 cup Quick Cooking rolled oats
    • 3/4 cup All-Purpose flour
    • 1/4 cup Whole Wheat flour
    • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
    • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
    • 1 grated rind of a Whole Orange
    • 1/2 cup Dried Cherries chopped
    • 1/3 cup Low-fat Milk
    • 1 Egg, beaten
    • 1/4 cup Oil
    • 1/4 cup Light Sour Cream
    • 2 tablespoon Light Cream Cheese
    • 1/4 cup Juice of one Orange

    Instructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and place 12 muffin liners in a muffin pan.
    2. In a medium bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients together. Add the wet ingredients and mix until the dry ingredients are just moistened—Be careful to not over-mix.
    3. Fill each muffin tin ¾ full. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Enjoy.

    Eat Out and Lose Weight -- 25 Easy & Healthy Tips

    Eat Out and Lose Weight -- 25 Easy & Healthy Tips for Dining Out


    Diners have become more health-conscious the last few years, and now want healthy choices whether eating at home or at their favorite restaurants. Luckily, the restaurant industry has been quick to accommodate the demand, so you'll find you have many options to "eat healthy" these days.

    Whether you're eating at home or dining out, the same rules for watching your weight apply. You need to eat more vegetables, fruit and whole grains. Choose smaller portions of lean meats, fish and poultry.

    Eat a variety of foods, and fresh, raw foods are better. Cut back on salt, sugar, saturated fats and alcohol. Drink plenty of water, and include exercise every day as part of your daily lifestyle choice.

    So whether you're having lunch with the gang, or enjoying a romantic dinner for two, you can enjoy delicious-tasting foods that are low-in calories and good for you, with just a little forethought and planning.

    Here are some easy tips to remember when ordering out that will help you to lose weight even when eating at your favorite restaurants:

    1. If you know the menu from the restaurant you're going to, plan what you're going to have ahead of time. This will help save you from making a last minute decision that could result in high-calorie choices.

    2. Drink at least one full-glass of water or iced tea before eating your meal. This helps your digestive process, and, because you'll feel full sooner, you will eat less.

    3. Don't be afraid to ask for the "senior citizen" special or kid's-sized portions. Most restaurants will accommodate you -- and often you'll pay less as well!

    4. Order first. That way you're much less likely to be influenced by the choices of your companions.

    5. If you're not sure how something is prepared, don't be afraid to ask. And if the dish is cooked in oil or butter, you can always ask if they have a "fat free" option.

    6. If everything on the menu is high in fat or calories, ask if the chef could prepare a plate of fresh fruit and vegetables. Many restaurants offer a vegetarian selection, so if you don't see it on the menu, ask.

    7. When ordering meat or fish, ask that it be grilled or broiled, and prepared without oil or butter. (When you eat it, use lemon or herbs and spices to give it flavor rather than heavy sauces).

    8. Order an appetizer and a salad as your meal. Or a soup and salad. For dessert, choose fresh fruit.

    9. When choosing soup, remember that cream-based soups have many more calories than broth-based ones.

    10. If you're having a full meal, split the appetizer and desert with your companion.

    11. If you decide to order pasta, tomato sauce has fewer calories than cream-based sauces, just like soup.

    12. Choose breadsticks over bread, or if you eat bread, don't add butter. Stay away from muffins and croissants, and choose whole grain over white.

    13. Choose steamed vegetables instead of baked potatoes or other starches. Again, use lemon and herbs and spices rather than butter to flavor them with.

    14. Whenever possible, eat like the Europeans do, and have your biggest meal at lunchtime. Not only will you save money, but you'll cut down on calories at the same time!

    15. Take the time to enjoy your meal. Savor the flavors and textures of your food, and enjoy the company you're with. When you eat slowly, you give your body's internal clock the time it needs to know when you've had enough. When you're full, stop eating. Ask your server to remove your plate so you're not tempted to keep eating while you wait for your companion to finish.

    16. Ask for salsa on your baked potatoes, rather than sour cream and butter. Not only is salsa much lower in calories, but it adds a "spicy" flavor to potatoes.

    17. Order salad dressings and sauces "on the side." This gives you more control of how much to use. Another tip for salad dressing -- rather than pouring the salad dressing on your salad, dip your fork into the dressing first, and then into the salad. You'll get the same amount of flavor, without all the added calories!

    18. Choose brown rice over white rice (or french fries), whole grain breads and rolls over white. Not only are they lower in calories, but they are better for you.

    19. Stay away from "all you can eat" buffets and salad bars. It's too easy to lose track of the amount of food you're eating, even when it's salads. If that's your only choice, then stay away from the pasta, marinated salads, cheeses and fruit salads with whipped cream. Stick to soups, raw vegetables and fresh fruits.

    20. Have your soup first. It will help to fill you up, and most soups have fewer calories.

    21. If you're craving something sweet, and don't want fresh fruit, choose sorbet. If you absolutely HAVE to have the chocolate sauce, use the same trick as you did with the salad dressing -- dip your fork into it first, then your dessert.

    22. Split your dessert with your companion. You'll still feel like you got to be indulgent, and you'll only have to exercise half as long to burn off the extra calories!

    23. When ordering sandwiches, order them with mustard only, rather than mayonnaise. Not only does mustard have almost no calories, but you won't miss the mayo!

    24. If the portion you were served is large, only eat half of it. Take the other half home. Not only will you get two meals for the price of one, but you'll cut the calories in half as well!

    25. Go for a walk after eating. Stroll along the beach, walk through a park, visit a zoo. You'll burn calories and get your exercise at the same time!

    Weight Loss For Women: Top 7 Reasons To Get Fit Not Slim

    :When you were born you were given a unique one of a kind gift.
    You were given the genetic code to be YOU, someone unlike
    anyone else in the world. Whether or not it is the particular
    gift you might have wanted, it is the gift you have. You can
    choose to honor that gift or not.

    You may have received the genetic code to be tall or short,
    large-boned or average, the tendency to be more of a pear shape
    or an apple, and so much more. No matter what your gift, I
    guarantee you that you are beautiful!

    I encourage you to find a way to get fit and healthy for the
    body shape you have. You might lose weight and then again you
    might not. But in the process of getting fit you will look
    better, feel better, and reduce your risk for health problems
    both now and in the future.

    Here are some of the many benefits you could have with a
    primary goal to get fit not slim:

    1. One of the most immediate benefits is that you can have fun!
    Yes fun. There are many different possibilities for exercise to
    propel you on your path to fitness. Walking is always a good
    choice but why stop there?

    How about hiking, or belly dancing, or pole dancing? Explore
    the options. There are hundreds if not thousands of ways to get
    active, burn calories, have fun and get in shape!

    2. When you exercise, a healthy diet plan will not only ALLOW
    you to eat more food than when you choose to diet without
    exercise, it will REQUIRE you do so to avoid slowing down your
    metabolism. More food is good right?

    3. If you are 35+, your hormones may have begun to dance in
    unpredictable ways. You may find it to be challenging enough
    just to maintain weight much less lose weight.

    4. If hormonal changes aren’t enough, your metabolism begins to
    slow down by age 40 if not sooner. Exercising to burn 100
    calories a day could mean the difference between no weight gain
    and a gain of 10 pounds in one year.

    5. Adding a little more muscle is a good! Yes, muscle weighs
    three times more than an equal amount of fat. But muscle burns
    more calories than fat tissue and gives you the added benefit
    of toning and shaping your body. New studies have revealed that
    women who lose a significant amount of weight WITHOUT exercising
    have MORE cellulite than those who have not added muscle or have
    not lost any weight at all!

    6. With low calorie diets it is difficult to obtain all the
    nutrients you need. However, given that you can eat somewhat
    more when you exercise, it is easier to obtain the vitamins,
    minerals, antioxidants, and fiber you need to stay healthy.
    Food sources of these nutrients are far more beneficial than
    most supplements.

    7. Women who are slim are at much higher risk of getting
    osteoporosis. Having a little extra weight gives you the
    advantage of greater protection for your bones.

    Seven solid reasons to get fit not slim. Go now and pick your
    exercise program, have fun, get fit, feel better and look
    better! Just remember to appreciate who you are each day on
    your path to fitness because you are already beautiful!

    Diet Compliance vs Cheating - How Strict Should You Be?

    Question and Answers From Tom Venuto
     
     
    Diet Compliance vs Cheating - How Strict Should You Be?
     
     
    QUESTION: Hello Tom, I've been doing BFL for the past year, and did well at first, losing 3 dress sizes and 5% body fat, but then I totally hit a plateau and have had no more results since December. I'm wondering if I've been strict enough with my eating
     
    I bought your ebook, Burn The Fat, and I'm very excited about the information I've read so far, but I need some clarification about the eating part.

    I've been eating according to the BFL philosophy with one "cheat" day per week. What I'm reading in your Burn The Fat program is instead, to allow myself a couple of "cheat" meals any time during the week or on the weekend, but not to take an entire day off the program.

    However, in your list of foods that turn to fat, you mention that certain foods should only be eaten very rarely. Does that mean that they shouldn't even be eaten at a weekly cheat meal? I can live with that, but then, what constitutes a "cheat" meal, (for example, if my favorite hash browns aren't allowed? :)

    I know you get a billion emails, but I would really appreciate it if you have time to answer.

    Kind regards,
    Kathleen

    ANSWER: It's not productive in the long term to totally deprive yourself of foods you enjoy. What you have to do is find a sensible way to work even your most "sinful" favorite foods into your diet, but do it in an amount and frequency that doesn't set you back or sabotage your progress. This can be done by allowing yourself some "cheat meals" (some people call them "free meals" or "reward meals.")

    One really good way to look at the "cheat meals" concept is in terms of "compliance," which means, what percentage of your meals are following the guidelines of the program and what percentage are off the program.

    Too many meals or days off the program and your results are compromised. Too many days in a row eating nothing but "rabbit food" and you go crazy with cravings, right?

    How much you need to comply (stick with) your program varies from person to person. It depends a lot on how ambitious your goals are and on how responsive your body is to nutrition and exercise.

    When making your decision, keep in mind we all have different genetics and body types, which is something I discuss in great detail in chapter 5 of Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle (burnthefat.).

    Are you a carb-tolerant mesomorph who gains muscle easily and loses fat easily or are you a carb-sensitive endomorph who gains fat easily? Depending on the answer, your diet program may need to be more or less strict than others.

    Don't compare yourself to others - you have to get to know your own body type. Some people can "Get away with" more cheat meals and still make progress (Yeah, I hate them too!)

    Unless you're a competitor in physique sports like bodybuilding, fitness or figure, or you're getting ready for some type of transformation challenge or photo shoot, I suggest at least 90% compliance.

    Whether you adjust your level of compliance above 90% (get more "strict") or below 90% (get more lenient), depends how far away or close you are from achieving your goals, and most importantly, on what kind of results you're getting each week.

    If you're complying 90% of the time, and you are getting awesome results, you don't have to change a thing, and you may be able to loosen up your diet a little. I know some people who are definitely only "on the program" 80% or 85% of the time and they look great.

    90% compliance means you are following healthy nutritious, fat burning eating guidelines 9 meals out of 10. If you're eating small frequent meals like the burn the fat program suggests, that's 5 small meals a day X 7 days a week = 35 meals. 90% compliance means about 31-32 of those meals are spot-on! The other 3 or 4 are for you to enjoy special occasions, reward yourself, and live a little.

    If you're like most people, and you simply want to drop a few pounds, trim a few inches off your waistline and look better in shorts or in a swimsuit for summer, then 100% compliance is unrealistic AND unnecessary. 90% compliance is more realistic as a lifesytle, while being strict enough for most people to get results.

    On the other hand, if you had a very ambitious goal like preparing for a figure or fitness competition and you thought you had to reach at least 12 or 13% body fat (which is very low for women), and you knew you would be onstage with judges looking at every inch of your body in a teeny bikini (paying very close attention to whether anything on your butt and thighs was "jiggling"), then you would want to be as strict as possible during the pre contest diet period (100% compliance or very close to it).

    Keep in mind also, that this is a competitive situation and every time you "cheat" and your competitors don't cheat, you decrease your probability of placing high in the contests.

    Unless you have a competitive physique goal like this, however, then total deprivation of pleasure foods or cheat meals (100% compliance), is not necessary because you always tend to crave what you cannot have. That's a binge waiting to happen.

    I prefer this 90 or 95% compliance approach over the "entire day of cheating" approach, because I have seen people use the term "cheat day" pretty darn loosely (basically making it the equivalent of BINGE DAY), and they do a lot of damage in terms of setting their progress back.

    They end up frantically playing "catch up" for the better half of the following week with punishing extra exercise and dietary deprivation. Slow and steady is better than binge and punish don't you agree?

    Allow yourself some leeway. Enjoy food. Enjoy life. Have your pizza, or chocoloate or your hash browns or whatever makes your stomach happy. It will help, not hurt in the long run. Just be sure to be mindful of your calorie limits, and when you say you are going to comply 90% of the time, then keep your promise to yourself and comply!

    Top 10 Reasons Diets Don't Work

    Top 10 Reasons Diets Don't Work

    Over $4 billion is spent by those who want to lose
    weight every year on books, tapes, foods, programs,
    diets, pills, herbs, shakes and who-knows-what-else.
    Unfortunately, less than 5% of those who lose weight
    actually keep it off for more than one year. In fact,
    researchers are saying that it's easier to cure cancer
    than it is to lose weight and keep it off for two years!
    Here's why diets don't work.

    How To Reduce The Risk Of Disease

    In a message dated 8/16/2006 11:48:24 AM Eastern Standard Time, copybum@yahoo.com writes:
    How To Reduce The Risk Of Disease
     
    By John L. Anghelache
     
    The U.S.D.A Food Pyramid is supposed to provide a guideline for healthy eating. Conventional thinking dictates that by eating a “well-balanced” diet from each of the four food groups we will maintain and improve health.
     
    There is, however, a big problem with following the U.S.D.A. guidelines. And that problem is this: The diet they recommend contributes to acidification of the blood and tissues. This type of environment is a spawning ground for viruses, bacteria, yeast and fungus. All of which decompose human cells and body tissue.
     
    In other words, this type of diet creates a highly toxic environment in our body. The toxicity is apparent due to a pH that is acidic.
     
    Whenever our body becomes too acidic we become susceptible illness and disease. The key to reducing the risk of illness and disease, then, is to maintain an alkaline pH balance in the body.
     
    In an alkaline state it is almost impossible to get sick!
     
    How do you achieve an alkaline pH? Well there are three keys…
     
    Key #1: Cleanse Your System
    The easiest way to do this is to go on a 30-day juice fast. Always do so under the supervision of a doctor. A juice fast literally flushes toxins out of your body and purifies you from within. A side benefit of getting the toxins out is that you will lose weight and feel energized.
     
    Key #2: Eliminate Acid Producing Dietary Elements
    These include sugar, vinegar, nicotine, alcohol, caffeine and drugs. Every one of these dietary elements contributes to pH imbalances. As soon as your pH becomes acidic infectious and degenerative disease begins to form. These foods also stifle your immune system and prevent it from performing properly.
     
    Key #3: Eat Live Alkaline Foods
    These foods nourish the body and maintain an alkaline pH. They include dark green and yellow vegetables, soy beans, sprouted nuts, seeds, grains and essential fatty acids. A diet consisting of these foods lowers acid levels due to ample amounts of bases and alkaline salts.
     
    By the way, you can check your body’s pH. Doing so allows you to keep tabs on your relative state of health. Cheap pH testing kits can be found in most drug stores. Once a month check your pH. If it’s acidic you can take the measures above to bring it back to an alkaline state. This will help you to greatly reduce the risk of disease.
