Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
You mean you drink diluted apple cider vinegar everyday? You have to drink in the morning at least an hour before you eat anything else. From what I know, it can help balance your pH, if your body tends to be alkaline. If its acidic, you should dilute baking soda and drink it the same way.
A lot of problems get better if you fix your pH - too much acidic, you will have high uric acid level leading to all kinds of disasters. Too much alkaline and you will have muscle aches etc.
Its actually the opposite!
While it does help with pH, ACV or morning lemon water help to alkalinize your body and reset from the standard diet which makes us acidic.
Don't ask me to quote the science, but a simple search will confirm.
Happy morning drink!
I need to get back to this, since ACV is actually Acidic with a pH of about 2-3.
Yes, it is, as is lemon juice. However, its action on the body systems is different.
Did you know each body system has a different optimal pH - you are divinely made.
I am a Naturalmedicinefag!
Many conditions attributed to having too much stomach acid are actually the result of too Little HCL. Western medicine has things so screwed up.
To your earlier point - if your stomach is bubbling over with indigestion, baking soda in water works quick wonders.
Yes, and each person has to find their optimal balance.
Whenever I mention baking soda, people immediately jump to the indigestion, but now I am talking about uric acid that used to cause painful gout attacks, but in long term can cause heart attack and worse. For more than 6 years nothing I did reduced the uric acid - I had pretty much cut down everything I ate, to no avail.
Found out about the pH balance with baking soda, and 6 months later demonstrably lowered the uric acid level and all the pains gone. Even doctor was surprised.
As for lemon juice and ACV reducing acidity in the blood, I will have to believe it only after I experience it. Changing blood pH level is considered to be a "conspiracy theory" by conventional science, so very very hard to obtain real data except through experience.
The best stuff I find is organic cider vinegar with added mother. Two fingers of it in a small glass, down in one.
