Alkaline Minerals - They Neutralize Excess Acids
As a nation, we live an
extremely acidic life. The foods we eat are
acid-forming: meat and poultry, pasteurized dairy
products, baked goods, trans fats and cooked oils, and
refined sugars. Even most of the beverages we drink are
acid-forming: coffee, tea, pasteurized juices and milk,
and carbonated drinks. The lifestyle habits we have are
acid-forming: drugs (both pharmaceutical and
“recreational”), alcohol, and stimulants. The emotional
states we gravitate toward are acid-forming: stress,
anxiety, and fear.1 And certain external factors that we
have little control over are acid-forming, like
pollution and aging. (Many studies have shown that
acidification increases with age.)2
“But aren’t our bodies naturally equipped with the
ability to neutralize these acids?”, you may be
thinking. The short answer is yes. The human body
removes weak acids (like citric acid in lemons or acetic
acid in apple cider vinegar) from the lungs in the form
of carbon dioxide. And it removes strong acids from the
kidneys through the urine, and from the skin through the
sweat. However, our bodies can only process so much acid
– especially strong acid.
Where do the acids go?
What happens when our production of acids exceeds our
intake of alkaline mineral buffers? Before we answer
that question, let’s take a deeper look at how pH works.
Most parts of the body have a pH range they can
tolerate. The skin can vary from 4.5 to 7.0, for
example. Stomach acid ranges from 1.0 to 3.0. And
pancreatic secretions go from 8.0 to 8.3. But the blood
is not so flexible. It has a very narrow pH range: 7.35
to 7.45. If the pH of your blood goes outside that range
even just a little… wham; the functioning of your organs
is compromised. If the pH of your blood strays too far
from that acceptable range for too long, your body will
go into shock…then coma…then death.3 No joke. As you can
imagine, the body will do just about anything to keep
that from happening. So when your blood starts becoming
even a tiny bit acidic, it has to do something with the
excess acids. The option of choice is to send the acids
to the kidneys for elimination.
But what happens when the kidneys are at full capacity —
when they simply can’t accept all the acids being
produced by the body? Then where do they go?
If you have enough alkaline buffers in your system, they
mix with the acids and become neutral salts. (In other
words, the acids and the alkaline minerals cancel each
other out.) But if you don’t — like most Americans — the
body’s only choice is to force the acids deep into the
tissues, which can withstand pH fluctuations better than
the blood.
The good news (yes, there is good news) is that
neutralizing the acids locked within your tissues is
remarkably simple: Just load your body with alkaline
mineral buffers.
You see, acidification is primarily a synonym for
mineral deficiency. That’s because alkaline mineral
buffers — such as calcium, magnesium, potassium,
manganese, and iron — combine with acids to create
neutral salts. The neutral salt that’s created can then
enter the bloodstream for elimination, without affecting
the pH of the blood. And voila, pH balance is restored.
Of course, most of us aren’t taking in nearly the amount
of minerals that we need to be. And the minerals that we
do get are being immediately seized by the body to
neutralize the excess acids in our systems.
The quick and effective way to neutralize acids.
The best way to neutralize excess acid is to cancel it
out with alkaline mineral buffers.pHion Alkaline
Minerals contains all five primary alkaline minerals —
calcium, magnesium, potassium, manganese, and iron — so
it quickly goes to work to neutralize damaging acids
deep within your tissues. We’ve selected only the
highest quality mineral forms to include in pHion
Alkaline Minerals, including calcium derived from
organic whey powder, which makes it perhaps the only
organic-source calcium on the market. And since calcium
requires phosphorous for proper absorption, the pHion
Alkaline Minerals formula also includes phosphorous.
An added bonus.
Not only will pHion Alkaline Minerals neutralize the
acids in your system, when taken on a daily basis, it
will also help you build up your mineral reserves. That
means you’ll have a ready supply of minerals on-hand
when needed. And since minerals are required for, oh,
over 300 reactions in the body, that’s a good thing.
Packed with all five primary alkaline minerals, pHion
Alkaline Minerals may be the quickest way on earth to
transform a stagnant, acidic system into a vibrant,
pH-neutral one.
Product Ingredients
The five alkaline mineral buffers in pHion Alkaline
Minerals include:
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and is
also one of the most alkalizing. Research has shown that
our unique form of whey calcium is more bioavailable —
i.e. better absorbed and utilized — than other calcium
ingredients, making it a superior calcium choice.4
Magnesium is another crucial mineral that helps restore
proper pH Balance. In addition to its alkalizing effect,
magnesium is vital in assisting calcium and potassium
uptake.5 Unfortunately, most Americans don’t get enough
magnesium through the diet. In fact, a recent study
found that a full 68 percent of Americans consume less
than the RDA of magnesium — and 19 percent consume less
than 50 percent!6
Potassium is an electrolyte critical in maintaining
proper acid-alkaline balance. Potassium is highly
concentrated inside the cells, while its partner,
sodium, is highly concentrated outside the cells. It is
their perfect ratio that maintains fluid and electrolyte
balance. In caveman days, our potassium intake was seven
times higher than our salt intake. These days, we’ve
gone completely out of balance, with sodium intake
tripling that of potassium.7
Manganese is one of the unsung minerals. But just
because it doesn’t get as much press as calcium,
magnesium, and potassium doesn’t mean it’s not
important. Like “the big three,” manganese supplies
alkaline buffers that neutralize acids in the system.
Amazingly, manganese is needed for numerous enzymes, so
it is a required trace mineral for all living things!
Iron, as you probably know, is necessary to carry oxygen
in the blood. This is of crucial importance for people
who have trouble metabolizing acids, since they cannot
oxidize volatile acids properly.
Vitamin D3 is produced in skin exposed to sunlight,
specifically ultraviolet, B radiation. We have included
Vitamin D3 for its’ ability to increases the flow of
calcium into the bloodstream by: (1) stimulating
osteoclastic resorption of calcium from bone, (2)
facilitating the effect that parathyroid hormone has on
calcium resorption from bone, (3) increasing kidney
tubular absorption of calcium, and (4) increasing
calcium absorption from the gastrointestinal tract.
pHion Alkaline Minerals also features Phosphorous, which
is necessary for calcium uptake. Its inclusion helps
ensure that your body actually absorbs the calcium in
this formula! It also serves another role: Phosphorous
binds to acids in the kidneys creating a substance
called phosphoric acid. This acid is then excreted via
the urine. Through this buffering method, the kidneys
reduce the degree of acidity in the bodily fluids.
