| 0:00.0 | So, I keep getting this question over and over and over and over again, so I'm going to |
| 0:25.5 | do another video on this topic. |
| 0:27.5 | I don't want to know, is it healthy to alkalize my body? |
| 0:31.0 | The truth is, it's better to acidify your body than to alkalize your body. |
| 0:35.9 | Let me explain. |
| 0:37.9 | First of all, we have this scale of pH and at seven we have neutral. |
| 0:43.3 | Anything higher, like in 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, you get a pH that's more alkaline. |
| 0:50.0 | The numbers that go higher are more alkaline. |
| 0:52.3 | The numbers that go lower, like 6, 5, 4 are more acid. |

| 1:24.3 | The stomach should be extremely acid, like between one and three. |
| 1:28.8 | Now if we compare this to the different fluids of the body, the stomach is the most |
| 1:33.9 | out of range pH, okay, in the entire body. |
| 1:37.2 | And so you have the stomach, which is kind of like the main organ that is at the very |
| 1:42.3 | beginning of the digestive cycle or the chain of events. |
| 1:46.9 | And so if that stomach doesn't work right or you have a problem with it, from that point |
| 1:51.9 | on, nothing else can work right. |
