Do you know the Acid Alkaline Diet? The Acid Alkaline Diet is a popular approach people took in 2003 and 2004, created by Dr Robert Atkins. He had practiced this diet approach through solving his obesity in person. Therefore, he thought that the in-taking refined carbohydrate is the root of obesity. However, as to the effect of the Acid Alkaline Diet, different studies hold different opinions. Not all the people agree with Dr Robert Atkins’ Atkins Diet, and they thought that it is this diet promotes some diseases. The opposite voices make us consider whether the Acid Alkaline Diet is a proper approach to benefit our people.
And then, what is the result of this reconsideration? And what is the opposite of the Acid Alkaline Diet? The answer is the Acid Alkaline Diet. From the previous studies on healthy diet, it is very important for us to balance the acidity and alkalinity in our body. As we known, under the normal condition, people’s body ph level is between 7.3 and 7.4 and the ideal ph level is 7.3. The animal foods we take everyday are all appear to be acid foods. If we take too much without enough alkaline foods, it may make blood to become acidic and increase blood viscosity finally. So in our daily life, we should keep on taking some alkaline foods to ensure our health. The alkaline foods are rich in calcium, sodium, iron, potassium, magnesium. These kinds of elements are what our health needs. We can get them from fresh vegetables, fruits, some low-glycemic foods and many other foods. As a result it can help us to fight against many diseases, such as Osteoporosis, obesity and so on. The Acid Alkaline Diet consists of 80% alkaline foods and 20% acid foods.
The Acid Alkaline Diet can help us to have a good immune system and also endow us more physical power. If you are a patient during your recovery, the Acid Alkalis Diet can enable you recovery much faster by in-taking the alkaline foods. If you are a busy office worker who are tired of every day’s heavy tasks and stress, the Acid Alkalis Diet can save you out of the terrible condition by providing you more vigor. Besides, the studies had found that the Acid Alkalis Diet is related to the level of intelligence. When the acidity is high, the intelligence quotient is low. When the alkalinity is high, the intelligence quotient is high. So the increasing in-taking of the alkaline foods can improve people’s intelligence quotient. Because of this relation, more and more parents inclined to increase their children’s absorption of the alkaline foods.
