You have more control over your health than you think!

Tracking the internal alkaline/acid balance (pH) in your body will reveal it’s ability to handle your diet and lifestyle because emotional and mental factors as well as what you eat and drink do affect how your body functions. Simple pH testing of your saliva and urine determines if emotions and/or diet are contributing to your health distress.

Another important point of focus is diet. Different foods that fuel our cell’s metabolism create a residue called ash which is either alkaline, neutral or acid. This ash if it is too acid only creates more burden and stress on the body as it struggles to eliminate the excess acid. Alkaline/Acid Food Chart.

Dr. Morter’s life’s work focused extensively on alkaline/acid balance (pH) of the fluid within and surrounding the cells of the body. The key idea is that our cells are most healthy in an alkaline environment but at the same time the by-product of their metabolism is acid which needs to be eliminated from the body to maintain a healthy, alkaline environment for the cells.

This important topic of pH balance will be addressed in your Morter B.E.S.T. Session so you may have the ability to cultivate ‘Your Potential for Health’.

In the meantime, here are four steps you can follow to gradually improve your health through balancing your pH.

1. Eat more cooked vegetables every day. Just add it to whatever you’re eating.

2. Eat fewer high protein foods. Eat smaller portions of beef, poultry, pork, and fish, while continuing to add more cooked vegetables to meals.

3. Don’t cook the vegetables quite as much, leaving them a bit crunchy, and add one serving of raw fruit or vegetables each day.

4. Begin to lesson the amount of sugar, salt, coffee, tea, cola drinks, alcoholic beverages and processed foods.

Remember: Make dietary changes slowly. Rapid changes can result in discomfort due to toxins being released into your system As you make these changes slowly, you’ll begin to crave wholesome foods and your diet and health will improve. You’ll feel a lot better.
