Can eating more alkaline food change acidic constitution?

Traditional Chinese medicine in China believes that people have different constitutions, such as acidic constitution and alkaline constitution. If you are acidic and want to become alkaline, the best constitution for human body is weak alkaline constitution, and acidic constitution is easy to get sick. So some people say that eating alkaline food can change our constitution from acidic to alkaline. Is that really the case? There are many foods on the market that emphasize the alkalinity of PH value and flaunt that it can improve acidic constitution. Modern people are also used to buying alkaline water when drinking water. Eating alkaline food to regulate physical fitness seems to be a public health concept. Is alkaline food really better for the body? Food can't change your constitution.

Nutritionists point out that acidic and alkaline foods depend on the types of minerals contained in the food. Acidic foods contain more minerals such as chlorine, sulfur and phosphorus, including meat, seafood, white rice and whole grains. Alkaline food is rich in minerals such as potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium, and exists in vegetables and fruits. The pH value of food will not change people's physique, but it will affect their health. Most people eat acidic foods, and their bodies will lack mineral components only found in alkaline foods, making it difficult to metabolize old substances in their bodies.

Nutritionists remind people not to fall into the misunderstanding that "alkaline food can regulate acidic constitution". Food can't improve physical fitness. The concept of acid-base balance lies in a balanced diet. Both acidic food and alkaline food should be taken in a balanced way, not in excess. If you eat too much meat, you can add some alkaline foods, such as alkaline water and lemon juice. In addition, plums are also high-quality alkaline foods, and the citric acid contained in them contributes to the absorption and metabolism of calcium in the body.

The best-selling Taiwanese salt "marine alkaline ionized water" in Taiwan Province comes from the ocean. Through electrodialysis and distillation filtration, the unique minerals and trace elements of seawater are retained. Proper drinking can supplement the minerals needed by the human body. In addition, the "Alkaline Wang Mei Jing Tang" produced by Evergreen Biomedical is made of essence, which removes the sour taste of plums. Mei Cheng refined sugar is concentrated on freshly harvested plums, which retains the complete nutrition of plum essence, and L- arabinose is added, which can block the absorption of sugar, promote the function of digestive tract, and is more effective for plums.

Methods of improving natural physique

Air negative ions can effectively improve acidic constitution. According to CCTV's "Road to Health" column, mild acidic constitution can cause sub-health phenomena such as listlessness, fatigue, insomnia and headache, and serious diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and cancer. Most people suffering from these diseases are acidic.

How to change acidic constitution? Experts from China CDC said that the diet should be adjusted first, and it can also be improved by air negative ion natural therapy. In terms of diet, you can drink more neutral or weakly alkaline water, eat more vegetables and reduce meat intake.

From the natural therapy of air negative ions (negative oxygen ions), it is suggested to often go to places with high negative ion concentration such as forests and seaside, and use the "oxygen therapy" effect of ecological negative ions (small particle size negative ions) to regulate health. Medical research shows that negative air ions have negative potential and strong reducibility, which can effectively adjust the pH of human body, improve acidic constitution and keep body fluids weakly alkaline.

Don't stay up late: If you don't sleep after 1 in the morning, the energy needed for human metabolism is not supplied by the food you eat, but is completely supported by various hormones secreted by the body. At this time, endocrine metabolism will produce a lot of toxins, which will make the body fluid environment sour.

Don't eat midnight snack: usually eating after 8 pm is called midnight snack. Because the metabolic capacity of the human body will be reduced at night, many organs will enter a state of rest, which will cause food to stay in the gastrointestinal system, gradually sour, ferment, produce toxins, and make the body sour.

Eat breakfast: At 4: 30 in the morning, the body temperature will reach the lowest point of the day, and the blood circulation speed is also the slowest. If you sleep too late and don't eat breakfast, the human body can't get enough energy to supplement, and the blood circulation speed becomes slower, which makes the human body in a state of hypoxia and aggravates the condition.

Eat more coarse grains: exquisite food will accelerate the aging of gastrointestinal tract. Although many people now know the benefits of coarse grains, it is still a little far from coarse grains for office workers who lack exercise. Eating exquisite food for a long time will accelerate the aging and decline of gastrointestinal function, and constipation will often occur, which will cause the food they eat to become toxic substances harmful to the human body and gradually worsen their physique.

Proper proportion of acidic and alkaline foods: The human body contains about 80% alkaline substances and 20% acidic substances, so the healthiest way to eat is to eat 80% alkaline foods and 20% acidic foods, of which 80% alkaline foods are composed of 60% vegetables and 20% fruits, while 20% acidic foods are protein and starch foods, each accounting for 65,438+.

One of the most important ways to eliminate excessive acid in human body by drinking water is to excrete acid through the kidney. Drinking enough water every day, about 6-8 cups (2.5 liters) of water can promote the purification process. It is recommended to drink more alkali-rich beverages, such as mineral water and herbal decoction containing calcium and magnesium.

The psychological balance of relaxation exercise and yoga plays a decisive role in maintaining acid-base balance. When body fluids are acidified, the ideal compensation methods are self-relaxation exercise and yoga exercise.

Breathing fresh air through the lungs, to be exact, coughing can also expel waste, and often engaging in outdoor sports is helpful to this process. If you exercise a little sweat, the effect is better, because the skin can excrete acidic substances in the human body through sweat.

Restricting certain drugs, especially painkillers, including birth control pills, will interfere with metabolism, as will the acid-base balance. Taking the above drugs, you should eat as many fruits and vegetables as possible to offset the harm of acidic factors to the human body, and the pain of the body can also be relieved by strong alkaline food.

Relax the bath temperature at 37℃, add 100g soluble sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), and try to rest after bathing.
