An alkaline plant based diet is based on the premise that eating alkaline plant based foods best support the 7.45pH balance the body maintains in the blood. This pH balance supports homeostasis, which is the optimal functioning of organs in the body. A pH of 7 is neutral and a 7.45pH is slightly alkaline.
Science indicates the body is designed to maintain a pH of the blood around 7.45 pH. Our bodies use buffering agents to maintain the required pH, when we constantly feed our bodies foods that acidify it. Overusing the buffering system can result in stripping of alkaline material from bones and organs to place in the blood. This weakens the bones and organs.
The body will strip alkaline material from bones and fluids to place in the blood to avoid metabolic acidosis. Metabolic acidosis can result in stroke and death. Feeding the body alkaline foods dictates whether the blood and body will be in a state of homeostasis and equilibrium.
Consuming animal based foods acidify the body and introduce hormones and pathogens that promote the destructive process of chronic inflammation. Inflammation itself is a natural defensive and healing process the body uses to kill and remove pathogens and toxins. The body sends white blood cells to kill and remove harmful pathogens and toxins during the inflammation process.
When we frequently consume animal based and processed foods the inflammation process becomes harmful, becoming chronic inflammation. During chronic inflammation the body is not able to turn off the inflammation process and it attacks itself. Chronic inflammation attacks the mucus membranes that lines and protects the body’s organs, leaving them susceptible to disease.
The inflammation process results in the body expelling mucus and the disease it envelopes. Chronic inflammation compromises the mucus membranes of organs, resulting in their deterioration and excessive mucus production and expelling..
Eating highly hybridized and starchy plant foods compromise and weaken the gut and digestive tract. Eating animal based foods introduce pathogens and toxins and acidify the body, and both promote chronic inflammation.
Physical activity holds equal importance alongside a plant-based diet in sustaining health and energy. It aids in boosting energy levels, enhancing mood, combating obesity, and lowering the likelihood of heart disease.
This platform draws significant inspiration from Dr. Sebi and his African Bio Mineral Balance and Dr. Sebi nutritional guide. It also benefits from the comprehensive analysis provided by medical expert Dr. Greger. The foods on the Dr. Sebi nutritional guide and herbs used in the Dr. Sebi methodology lay the foundation and direction of alkalineplantbaseddiet.com.
Aqiyl Aniys is the principal author of this website, and is the author of the “Alkaline Plant Based Diet” book. His book explores the advantages of adopting an alkaline plant-based diet to enhance health, vitality, and the planet’s ecological equilibrium. He is also the author of the book “Alkaline Herbal Medicine.” This book that explores the herbs used Dr. Sebi’s African Bio Mineral Balance and their attributes, use, and preparation methods.
Additionally, Aqiyl wrote the children’s book “Faith and Justice Eat an Alkaline Plant Based Diet.” It encourages the cultivation of strong self-esteem, comprehension of an alkaline plant-based diet, and reverence for the earth’s interconnected system.
The natural nutrients and phytonutrients present in an alkaline plant-based diet optimally support and promote well-being and liveliness.
