Do you know the five benefits of eating alkaline foods regularly?

As we all know, the healthiest state of the human body is a weak alkaline constitution, so many people will make adjustments according to their own constitution, and if people eat more alkaline foods in their daily life, it will also be of great benefit to the human body.

1. Weight loss and detoxification

Vegetables and fruits are both alkaline foods. These foods contain a lot of crude fiber, which can promote intestinal peristalsis, accelerate metabolism, make it easier for the body to absorb nutrients, and at the same time remove waste from the body, playing a role in detoxification and weight loss.

2. Beauty and skin care

Sagging skin and the formation of wrinkles are the biggest enemies of those who love beauty. The beauty and health of your skin are inseparable from the food you eat. The quality and acidity of food will affect your appearance.

Alkaline foods are foods that are believed to have beauty-enhancing effects. Because all alkaline foods are rich in minerals and vitamins, the calcium in minerals can strengthen the skin, enhance the skin's resistance, and eliminate allergies; vitamins C and E have strong antioxidant properties, inhibit the increase of pigments, make the skin white, and delay aging. At the same time, eating more alkaline foods can prevent the blood from turning acidic, maintain a healthy weak alkaline environment for the human body, and ensure normal metabolism and blood circulation.

3. Prevent the three highs

We all know that the three highs are high blood pressure, high blood lipids and high blood sugar, which exceed the normal standards. The three highs are a kind of "rich disease" caused by long-term eating habits of eating too much fish and meat. Therefore, while doctors use drugs to treat patients with the three highs, they also often warn them not to eat too greasy, high-fat, high-calorie, high-sugar foods such as pork belly, pig trotters, roast duck, etc., but to eat more whole grains, vegetables, and fruits, and avoid eating overly refined foods and reprocessed foods such as white bread, pickled foods, etc. This is because the foods that these doctors forbid are all acidic foods, while fruits, vegetables and whole grains are all alkaline foods.

4. Improve IQ

Studies have shown that a person's IQ is related to the acidity and alkalinity of cerebral fluid. The body fluids (mainly blood) of a healthy person should be slightly alkaline (pH value is about 7.3-7.5), which is beneficial to the body's absorption and utilization of nutrients such as protein, and keeps the body's blood circulation and immune system in good condition. People in this state have more energy and better intellectual development. The fastest way to develop an alkaline constitution is to eat more alkaline foods and develop good living habits.

Alkaline foods contain more metallic trace elements such as calcium, sodium, magnesium, iron, and zinc, all of which can promote growth and development. Deficiency will cause stagnation of growth and development; supplementation can accelerate growth and development, weight gain, and enhance physical fitness. Acidic foods contain more phosphorus, chlorine, sulfur and other elements. Excessive intake of acidic foods will make the blood viscous and flow slowly, thereby slowing down metabolism, causing brain hypoxia, cold limbs, etc.

5. Prevent sub-health

People in sub-health conditions generally have an acidic constitution, and the most direct cause of this is excessive intake of acidic foods and insufficient intake of alkaline foods, which cannot neutralize the excess acidic substances, causing an imbalance of acid and base in the body, leaning towards acidity, thus leading to an acidic constitution. Therefore, the most fundamental solution is to start from the direct cause, reduce the intake of acidic foods and increase the intake of alkaline foods.

The best alkaline food is kelp. Kelp, known as the king of alkalinity, is rich in calcium and can prevent and treat calcium deficiency in the human body. Kelp is also extremely rich in iodine, which can stimulate the pituitary gland, reduce the level of estrogen in women, restore the normal function of the ovaries, correct endocrine disorders, and eliminate the hidden dangers of breast hyperplasia. The gelatin contained in kelp can promote the excretion of radioactive substances in the body along with feces, thereby reducing the accumulation of radioactive substances in the human body and playing a detoxification role. Obese people can reduce their hunger by eating kelp, and absorb a variety of amino acids and inorganic salts from it. It is an ideal satiety agent. There are also large amounts of trace elements such as potassium, cobalt, fluorine, and various carotene, riboflavin and vitamins, proteins, amino acids, alginic acid and mannitol required by the human body, which are all substances that are extremely beneficial to the human body.
