Collection: Alkalising

An excessively acidic body pH for an extended period of time can have negative implications for one's health, as it is generally associated with increased susceptibility to illness. The accumulation of harmful acids and toxins in the body can occur due to various factors, such as excessive drinking, smoking, lack of exercise, and a high consumption of processed and chemically-packed foods.

In other words, a poor diet. Over time, the consequences of an overly acidic body can include: structural damage (including cell deterioration and inflammation), a build-up of impurities and a high toxic load (which strains the body's detox organs and systems), skin problems (such as body odour, excessive sweating, and acne), and yeast and fungal overgrowth (referred to as "acid and toxin eaters" in the natural health world).
