Alka-Balance
Supports an Alkaline State
Contemporary diets can be high in protein and fat which can cause the body
to become slightly acidic. Research has shown that a more alkaline state
promotes general health and well being. Source Naturals Alka-Balance is
specifically designed to aid the body in maintaining alkalinity. It contains
coral calcium, alkaline mineral citrates as well as a proprietary blend of herbs
and green food powders that are included to round out the overall health benefits
of this product. Research has shown that citrate has an alkalinizing effect
on the body.
Alka Balance Helps Maintain Natural Balance
Acid-alkaline balance plays a key role in maintaining good health and quality
of life. When this delicate equilibrium comes under attack, we are more vulnerable
to health issues. As an example, consumption of high-protein foods - such as
red meat - may result in acidic states. And this can result in a variety of
imbalances and generally low immune function that affect overall health. Alka
Balance is a proprietary blend of 25 minerals and herbs to aid you in maintaining
this healthful state of alkalinity.
The Importance of Proper Blood pH
Many body functions are involved in the regulation of acid-alkaline balance,
including respiration, excretion, digestion and cellular metabolism. In the
bloodstream, there are substances known as buffers that act chemically to resist
changes in pH. The most important of these compounds in the blood are bicarbonate,
albumin, globulin and hemoglobin.
The kidney also responds to the pH of the blood. If the blood is too acid, the
kidney excretes extra hydrogen into the urine and retains excess sodium. Phosphorus
in the form of phosphate is required for this exchange. The body obtains this
phosphorus from bone if it is otherwise unavailable. When the bloodstream is
extremely acid, the kidney also excretes ammonium ions into the urine, which
can cause irritation. Women with urinary tract discomfort were given 4 grams
of sodium citrate every 8 hours for 48 hours. Of the 64 women, 80% experienced
relief.
Health and well being are inextricably linked to lifestyle choices. Alka-Balance
is the right choice to maintain alkalinity and healthy balance. Available in
60, 120 and 240 tablet bottles.
