- Alkalizes the Body – An acidic body invites dis-ease. Nobel prize winner Otto Warburg discovered cancer cells only thrive in a low pH highly acidic cell environment. He further states that it is critical for the cancer patient to re-alkalize the pH of your body’s cells to 7.5 or greater.[1] Optimal acid-base balance is a pH of 7.35 to 7.45, which indicates the body is slightly alkaline, where you want it to be. You can easily and routinely test your body’s pH with urine or saliva with inexpensive strips.
