Migraine Headaches: a painful symptom of pH imbalance?

Research shows acidic pH levels to be chief cause of obesity, migraine headaches, osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and even cancer.

Keeping a healthy balance

Most people who suffer from unbalanced pH are acidic.  What is pH and what does is mean to be too acid?  pH is the abreviation for “potential hydrogen.”  It is the measure of the acid level in your body’s fluids.  The higher the pH reading, the more alklaline and oxygen-rich the fluid is.  pH ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral.  Anything above 7 is alkaline, and anything below 7 is considered acidic.

Summary: This article continues on to explain the connection between pH imbalances and migraines. Treat and resolve your migraines naturally.

Put  yourself on the fast track to an alkaline, pH balanced body with Earth Greens Powder or Capsules and Supreme pH Drops available through Essante, and adjust your diet with The Acid Alkaline Balanced Diet

 

Over-acidity is very common today. It’s a dangerous condition that weakens all body systems. It gives rise to an internal environment conducive to disease, as opposed to a pH-balanced environment which allows normal body function necessary for the body to resist disease.  A healthy body maintains adequate alkaline reserves to meet emergency demands.  When excess acids must be neutralized, our alkaline reserves are depleted leaving the body in a weakened condition. An acid/alkaline balanced diet, according to many experts, is a vital key to health maintenance.  When the pH of the body gets out of balance (too acidic), we may experience low energy, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches and pains, and even more serious disorders.

When our bodies are too acid and our alkaline reserves are depleted, this condition forces the body to borrow minerals – including calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium – from vital organs and bones to buffer (neutralize) the acid.   When your body needs alkaline minerals to help maintain it’s blood pH balance, it will literally leach calcium out of your bones, and other needed minerals (such as magnesium) are leached also from bones and organs.  Research has shown that migraines can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, specifically a deficiency in magnesium. As the body tries to neutralize its acid load, it uses up magnesium reserves, causing a magnesium deficiency.  Magnesium deficiency increases blood pressure and blood vessels in the head dilate from the increased pressure.   The USDA has performed studies that show a high correlation between migraine sufferers and low levels of magnesium that can also lead to more serious conditions such as heart attacks and strokes.

We all want to live healthier, more vibrant lives.  But, because our busy lives demand so much of us we tend to skip exercise and make poor dietary choices and our health suffers as a result.  As our pH becomes more and more unbalanced, we tend to crave more acid-forming foods.   It’s a vicious cycle that saps energy, depletes minerals and nutrients, and causes a multitude of potentially life-threatening conditions and diseases. Research has shown acidic pH levels to be chief causes of obesity, migraine headaches, osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and even cancer.

The solution is simple, but not necessarily easy.  Changing the way we eat is the best way to become more alkaline.  Try for 75 – 80% alkaline-forming foods and only 20-25% acid-forming foods at each meal.  You will discover that juicing and superfoods will help as well.

The Ayurvedic diet emphasizes magnesium rich, alkaline foods such as raw foods, especially bananas and broccoli, and milk. One home remedy that has worked to treat the symptoms of headache, cold hands and feet, vertigo and many of the other conditions is to drink a banana smoothie with coconut milk, which is an easily absorbable, alkaline, magnesium rich drink.

The change won’t happen overnight, but by integrating the proper foods along with the proper supplements and superfoods you can turn things around.  The process of restoring pH balance begins with proper diet and nutrition. This includes eating alkalizing foods (vegetables, low sugar fruits, etc.), super hydration (drinking plenty of ionic, structured, alkaline water), and proper supplementation.

Another problem – your body can only properly absorb water, minerals, and nutrients when your pH levels are slightly alkaline, and it does take time to turn an acid body alkaline.  Since the body needs an alkaline pH to absorb water properly – water retension is one manifestation of being overly acid and that can also lead to migraines.

Put yourself on the fast track to an alkaline body.  In addition to making changes to the way you eat, also add the proper supplements and superfoods to your diet.
