Acids Are The Cause of Overweight and Underweight

We all know that multiple trips to the acidic buffet for fatty acidic fried foods and sugary acidic deserts will pile on the pounds of protection. But no matter how carefully you watch your diet, stealth saboteurs may be making it difficult for you to shed extra pounds of acids. Several of the most common diet saboteurs you may not suspect -- and how to counteract them -- are:



1. Lack of Sleep. Recent research has shown that a

lack of sleep stresses your body physiologically and

causes the body to store the acids into fat more.

Counteract by getting eight hours of restful sleep

each night.



2. Stress. Stress throws the body into survival mode

where metabolism slows and the body stores fuel. In

addition, it dumps metabolic acids into your system,

such as cortisol and other hormones, which tend to

cause weight gain in the abdomen. Fight stress by

exercising, deep breathing and relaxation techniques.



3. Medications. Many prescription drugs are acidic,

including some used to treat depression, migraine,

blood pressure, and diabetes can cause weight gains

as drastic as ten pounds a month! Other acidic

medications, such as steroids and oral contraceptives,

can also cause weight gain as the body uses fat as

a buffer for acidic drugs. If you've had weight gain

with no change in lifestyle, check your medication

and talk to your doctor. You may want to consider

a more alkaline lifestyle and diet.



4. Lack of Alkaline Hydration. The body needs water

and the right kind of water to flush acidic waste

products from diet and metabolism. If the body

is not receiving adequate alkaline hydration acids

cannot be eliminated and are therefore stored into

the fatty acids. The body will also retain fat from

the diet to store excess acids from lifestyle and

diet not being eliminated because of a lack of

Alkaline Water consumption. You may want to

consider increasing your Alkaline Water consumption

to 1 liter per 30 pounds of weight to begin

detoxing the body of excess acidity.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist from the pH Miracle Living Center states, "fat is not the problem with over or underweight - it is the acidic waste products from our lifestyle and diet. The body retains fat to park excess acids away from the organs that sustain life. Therefore, the retention of fat on the body is a natural protection mechanism

to sustain and preserve life. If one is overweight or derweight then the treatment is simple - get off the acidic lifestyle and diet and the body will naturally and easily lose all the excess

weight or start gaining healthy weight. It is important to remember that the only cause of excess weight or underweight is an acidic lifestyle and diet."
