Lack of Energy

Lack of energy is one of the most asked about subjects. One of the main reasons we lack energy is our bodies have become dehydrated & demineralized. We must have minerals in our bodies, but our diet has removed most of these. The pH level of our blood cannot fluctuate much outside the range of 7.30-7.45 or we will become diseased & can die. Most of our diet is very acid. The main culprit is soda pop. The pH of soda is around 2. When we drink 1 glass of soda we must drink 21 glasses of a high alkaline drink to counteract the affects. Not too many people do this, & most people drink more than one soda daily. This keeps our bodies in an acid state, which is the breeding ground for bacteria, fungus & virus. When the low pH liquid enters our bodies, the blood rushes first to the muscles, then the organs, then finally the bones to get calcium & other minerals to raise the pH of the liquid we just drank. If this is happening over & over & we are not replenishing these minerals couldn't that explain the massive sickness in our society today? The drop of energy in the afternoon is due to dehydration. Instead of us reaching for water to rehydrate, we reach for soda, which gives us a temporary sugar rush but does not really address the issue of dehydration. Now we are in worse shape than before. You say I don't drink soda, I drink tea. Tea has a pH of 2.8. Well then you ask about juice & power drinks, they are all in the range of 2.9 to 3.7. Even bottled water is in the pH range of 5. Does this now shed some light on the sickness of our society?
