All food that is digested in our bodies metabolizes down to an ash residue. This ash residue can be neutral, acid, or alkaline. It is important to understand that the cells of our body are bathed in an alkaline fluid.

Over acidification of body fluids and tissues signals a state of imbalance, opening the door to sickness and disease, and extra fat. (As well, an overly
alkaline blood pH signals a generally over-acidic condition, as the blood pulls in alkaline salts to neutralize the acidity.)

Foods which create an acid residue are coffee, black teas, soft drinks, meats and other flesh proteins, eggs, dairy products, yeasty bread and yeast products, fermented foods like soy sause, miso, tempeh, vinegar, alcohol, sugar and high-sugar fruits.

Dr. Young has found through scientific research that sugars, white sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup, high fructose corn syrup, high-sugar fruits and fruit juices and even high-sugar vegetable juices like carrot and beet juice, contribute to excess fermentation in the blood, which creates excess acidity in our body fluids. This in turn would trigger one (among many) responses in the body to create fat to bind (or hold) the acidity and store it under the skin on our stomachs, thighs, buttocks,
arms, and even under our chinny-chin-chins to keep it from harming our vital organs.

Acids, as their name implies burn or erode, so creating fat is really a life-saving occurrence. We should be thankful for it, but we don’t need to become a slave to it, if we understand why it happens. Once we begin to adopt a new way of eating, living, and thinking, we can require
less self preservation mode reactions (like creating fat) in our bodies, and have much leaner, more energetic bodies.

If we can find delicious foods and drinks that will not require this fat triggering reaction, we should be able to freely eat foods and drinks that will satisfy us, nourish us, and help us maintain our natural alkaline environment and deposit many essential alkalizing minerals that will keep us strong and healthy. This would also be the best way to prevent premature aging.

In conclusion, alkalizing our diets would be the best, most conducive way to maintain our ideal weight all our life! This makes our choices easy. We can choose from a plethora of delicious, energy enriching alkaline foods and make sure they take up about 70-80% on our plates, and in turn our bodies will very easily digest and maintain homeostasis or balance.

At Last! No more fad extreme diets, but rather an alkalizing lifestyle that includes: hydrating easy-to-digest foods and drinks, along with other healthy habits like plenty of fresh air and sunshine, and the proper exercise. I believe the body has incredible capacity to heal and function properly for many years, if given the right fuel that is life generating. This is where we must begin to look for those foods that are most molecularly supportive of maintaining our inherent alkalinity.

Once a person becomes balanced, or is down to their ideal weight, or symptom free (over acidity causes many other symptoms besides extra fat on the body) then high sugar fruits could be eaten occasionally, for cleansing purposes. In an out of balance body they contribute to additional fermentation and stress on the body.
