Acidosis
Acidosis starts as the accumulation of acids in the lymph system.
..acid ash from burning the acid foods that we eat, and acid drinks
..acid chemicals from foods, things we put on our skin, breathing our self-polluted home environment, air pollution
..acids from each and every cell in our body, just like your car has exhaust, so do your cells
..acids from Rx and OTC (over the counter) drugs
Every cell in the body is surround by lymph fluid. There is an entire vascular system to pick up these fluids and move them out of the body. Too many acids, these fluids thicken, the vascular system expands (literally swells) and can clog up. This happens very easily in our sedentary world; the only thing that moves this lymph is muscle movement.
Let me give you a visual:
We're looking at a brick wall.
The bricks are your cells.
The mortor is lymph fluid.
Now...
Imagine instead of that mortor being "cement", look at it as fluid.
As that fluid fills with acids and thinkens and expands, the bricks wouldn't stay in their nice neat rows and lines. They become an organizational mess. At this point, it's not only the acids that are damaging, the cells are no longer in correct correlation to the blood's capillaries, their food source. This causes cell damage.
Malnutriton, cell damage, clogged/swollen lymph system ... VOILA ... ACIDOSIS.
