One of our major personal heath focuses should be to eliminate acid in our bodies and acid is the root source of all health problems. The first simple way to reduce body acid is to breath deeply. Very simply, most of us breath from the upper 1/3 of our lungs and never take deep breaths. For years, I did museum quality quilting as a hobby. People would look at my tiny 22 stitch per inch hand quilting and swear it was made by a machine because it was so small and even. But to achieve those tiny stitches, I was a master at holding my breath. I starved my body and brain of health giving oxygen. Even though you may not hold your breath to that extreme, you probably aren't taking full deep breaths multiple times a day. Begin to make it a habit.
and carries up to six times more oxygen to your cells and cleanses the acidic toxins from your body.
#3. Don't allow other people to "make" you angry. Own your emotions, and choose how your react to a person or situation. Stress increases the acid in your body.
#4. Cut out some of the acids that you put into your body. You could eliminate cigarettes, coffee, soda or other acid producing foods and inhalants.
#5. Add more green food into your diet. I know that may not sound appealing to most people but if you sick with reading my articles you will find that a short fast is the perfect way to get your taste buds back for healthy foods.

Top-level comments on this article: (6 total)Thank you - I've been suffering with excess acidity for some time - tried to increase alkalising foods/cut down on acid forming etc. But I was not aware of deep breathing - as I've found that I've had a tendency to hold my breath, so hopefully this will helpFlaxseed is AweSome when it comes to lowering your body's acidity levels also. Thanks for the reminder to deep breathe.
Really Nice. I Hope Yoga will help for Deep Breathe. If you give more info on Acid producing foods(what kind of or what are all), it would be better.
thank you my boyfriend is suffering from this..i hope it helps him
I suffer from lots of acid.....I have Hepatitis C and could someone tell me what to do...I would recommend investing in a water ionizer if you have not already, as it is much easier to drink alkaline water than to follow an 80% alkaline diet. I like the machines from Chanson Water USA. Definitely cut soda from your diet and try to lessen any stress in your life. I am vegetarian but if that's too extreme for you even just reducing the amount of meat you eat can help as meat is very acidic.
Great suggestions - I made a pasta dish tonight complete with collard greens and other veggies in it - it was yummy with chicken breast and hopefully got some more of the green stuff into Mick and me.
shall u tell about alkaline water available in the market,
Bottled alkaine water has very unstable pH and no oxidation reduction potential so I recommend alkaline water from an electric Chanson water ionizer.
