When we are born, our body comes into the world as an alkaline environment, meaning at a low level of acidity. However, diet, the stress of modern life, and unhealthy habits gradually make our pH more acidic. To keep its alkalinity as intact as possible, especially that of its precious lymph (the blood), the body is forced to compensate for this acidity using refined metabolic systems: the buffering systems.
However, compensatory abuse of these systems can develop with conditions that lead to various diseases, from diabetes to celiac disease, from heart diseases to intolerances, to the risks of obesity, up to more or less severe neoplastic forms.
Alkaline balance guides us in a simple, yet always scientifically argued way, to the understanding of these compensations:
- The body's buffer systems
- I 10 poisons we introduce with food
- The intestinal microbiota
- Gluten, allergies and food intolerances
- The importance of digestion
- Are dietary supplements useful?
- Learning to read blood test results
"Often, illness is not a scourge that strikes us like a bolt from the blue."
but it has a genesis of compensatory mechanisms on which we have the concrete possibility to intervene. This new paradigm of health can guide us in reclaiming a life of well-being.
AUTHOR'S NOTE
Giuseppe Sacchetti, after attending the Faculty of Pharmacy, has been a trainer since 2007 within an important cosmetic company in the wellness sector. Since 2014, he has specifically focused on training in alkaline nutrition and, from the same year, he began a sort of experimentation on himself, collecting studies and analyses on diabetes, a condition that has accompanied him for over twenty years.
"At the same time, it has pursued a constant activity of experimentation and research on the alkaline regime, in order to promote a diet that allows for achieving and maintaining an optimal level of health. The aim is not only to spread knowledge but to awaken a true food consciousness. A progress based on the therapeutic value of food, in the fruitful integration between nutritional and conventional medicine."
