PH Readings
Saliva PH is a reflection of what the body is keeping/absorbing while Urine PH is a reflection of what the body is eliminating. Therefore, your saliva ph is a better overall indicator of the state of your PH. It is not uncommon to have a urine PH as low as 5.8 and I would not be too alarmed by this as it indicates that the body is efficiently eliminating acids - something that needs to happen before you reach a more alkaline state. Now there are differing views on what is considered the optimal PH range. In reviewing most of the articles on this, IMHO, you should strive for a saliva PH of 7, keeping in mind that you will not always be able to maintain a constant PH reading of 7. Some days it may be a little more than 7 and other days it may be a little less than 7. It is just like blood pressure. 120/80 may be optimal blood pressure, but no human being will have a constant 120/80 blood pressure reading within 24 hour period. Some days and at some times of the day, the reading could be 118/75 and at other times of the day and on different days it could be 125/83. Also, keep in mind that the most important piece in the PH puzzle may be how you feel after consuming certain foods. When I had a breakdown and consumed a MacDonalds Big Mac Combo(supersized), I took 2 servings of Alkaseltzer Gold and my Saliva PH was 7.1, steady for three days after that and I had one brutal headache that I thought would never go away, but thankfully it did after 3 days. I went back to eating nutritiously again, my saliva PH dropped to 6.3 but I felt 100% more energetic. Then I ate some cabbage, felt even better, took my saliva PH again. This time it measured 7.1(the same as when I had the Big Mac Combo) but I did not experienced the opposite - more energy(no headaches). This is interesting in itself because it tells me that the quality of foods themselves rather than the foods themselves may exert a positive or negative influence on us regardless of what the PH measurements show. It is important to try and consume vegetables with High Brix Readings(you can read more about this in the Moreless Forum) and consider ingesting the Moreless Drink to make for the many shortcomings of your diet and to quickly bring your saliva PH and your health to a more optimal range.
