DIY Health- are you balanced?


pH balance is one of the most important things to check in your body if you are having health issues. A imbalance in your pH can lead to inflammation, immune system challenges, and a host of symptoms such as stomach problems, allergies and chronic pain.  pH balance is easy to check, you can do this at home. Get yourself a package of pH test strips and follow the directions.  The directions will include a nice color chart to compare your test strip to after you wait the required time. You will also be instructed to “take an average” of your pH over a period of time.

This average will give you a good idea if your pH balance is off. If it is, search online for information on how foods effect your pH. Change your diet and continue testing your pH until you find a healthy balance for you. If changing your diet doesn’t get you back in balance, you can take all natural pH balance supplements,  I like Young Living’s AlkaLime.  Changing your diet can only be good for you if your pH is off, even if it’s not quite enough to balance you out.
