Acid/Alkaline and Your Body's pH
When your body becomes too acidic, it will attempt to compensate by retaining
alkaline salts in the bloodstream to offset the increase of tissue acidity.
Since your body can only tolerate a small imbalance in blood pH, it will
rob alkaline components from other places including your bodys
precious alkaline reserves in an effort to restore a proper pH balance.
This can result in heartburn, digestive distress, stomach upset, fatigue,
and a multitude of varying symptoms.
Commercial antacid products only alleviate the symptoms by blocking the
production of acid and can often produce unwanted side effects. They alter
your body's ability to absorb protein and calcium which
can then create the need for a calcium supplement to compensate.
The ingredients in Acid Defense however,
contain naturally occurring alkalinizing components such as calcium and
magnesium that reestablish a balanced, healthy, system-wide pH. It is
safe for daily usage with no known side effects.
The Important Role of Sodium & Potassium
If it were not for the presence of sodium making the tissue in the stomach
highly alkaline, the lining would be destroyed by the hydrochloric acid
normally produced in the stomach. The stomach, intestines, joints, and
ligaments are in constant need of natural food-source sodium such as that
present in the goat mineral matrix in Acid Defense. Naturally occurring
sodium is not to be confused with the sodium from common table salt which
is processed with extreme heat using many chemical and bleaching agents.
A Necessary and Beneficial Combination:
Potassium neutralizes acid wastes, and in combination with sodium, maintains
a healthy acid/alkaline balance. Potassium and sodium are nearly always
found together in the body and perform many of the same functions. Second
only to breathing and maintaining a heartbeat the most important
metabolic function our body performs is to maintain a balanced pH.
The Foundation of Health
We believe that the very foundation of health begins with the proliferation
of beneficial flora in the gut. The probiotics, live enzymes, and alkalizing
minerals naturally occurring in goat's milk whey, along with organic vegetable
juice concentrates and our powerful Stomach Soothe enzymes
Blend Together in Acid Defense produce a soothing effect, maintain a balanced
pH, and promote the growth of healthy flora throughout the intestines.
Ancient Wisdom Fermentation
The ancient Greeks understood that important chemical changes took
place during fermentation. Their name for this change was alchemy.
The whole food ingredients in Acid Defense, are lacto-fermented
and enzymatically pre-digested,utilizing a proprietary natural process called Poten-Zyme (Potentiation by Enzymatic activation). This ancient method of bio-fermentation incorporates
14 strains of beneficial microorganisms and their enzymes into the foods,
gently breaking them down into their most basic elements.
Fermentation creates and liberates valuable medicinal compounds within
the foods including enzymes, antioxidants, beta glucans, phytosterols,
and other phytonutrients greatly enhancing the nutritional value
while making it easier to digest. This assures more complete absorption
and delivery of nutrients at the cellular level.
