Chapter 4: The Miracle of Nutritional CleansingChapter 4: The Miracle of Nutritional Cleansing than 7 is considered acidic, and those with a pH of greater than 7 are considered alkaline. (Pure water has a pH of exactly 7.) It's not important to understand any of this chemistry to be healthy or release excess body fat, but for the curious, the Wikipedia defines pH as follows: “pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. Aqueous solutions at 25°C with a pH less than seven are considered acidic, while those with a pH greater than seven are considered basic (alkaline). When a pH level is 7.0, it is defined as 'neutral' at 25°C because at this pH the concentration of H3O+ equals the concentration of OH− in pure water. pH is formally dependent upon the activity of hydronium ions (H3O+), but for very dilute solutions, the molarity of H3O+ may be used as a substitute with little loss of accuracy. (H+ is often used as a synonym for H3O+.)” So why does this matter? The human body is in a state of optimal health when it is in a state of balance, known as homeostasis (which basically just means stable and balanced.) Most people are healthiest when their pH is in the range of 7.2-7.4, which is slightly alkaline. There are a number of advantages to having a slightly alkaline body, which include but are not limited to:  Maintaining optimal weight and body composition  Higher energy levels  Resistance to diseases often caused by over-acidity, including diabetes and cancer; in fact, Vianna Stibal and many other well-known health professionals (including many medical doctors) teach that cancer cannot exist in an alkaline body!  Fewer parasites living in the body (most parasites thrive in an acidic environment)  Fewer viral and bacterial infections (most viruses and bacteria thrive in an acidic environment) 64
