A diet that is high in acidity will decrease your body’s ability to absorb minerals and other nutrients, decrease the energy production in your cells, and decrease your ability to repair damaged cells. If your body is very acidic, it will not be able to take in and use available oxygen to stay healthy. If, on the other hand, it’s more alkaline, oxygen will be delivered to the cells as needed. Because most people don’t eat enough high-alkaline fresh fruits and vegetables, their bodies become too acidic. This adds an additional layer of stress, as the body will always strive to maintain a normal pH level.
