In our bodies exists acid and alkaline properties. These two properties must be balanced to maintain health. When the body is too acidic, nerve endings become inflamed. That is where chronic pain comes from. In fact, one can examine their urine to see if it is acidic or alkaline. The darker the urine is, the more acidic the body is. Water is needed to clear the over-abundance of acidity from our cells. The level of alkalinity we need is pH 7.4. Water helps us stay at that number by regulating cell function and renewing all of our cells’ water supply. The pH scale goes from 1 to 14. 1-7 is acidic and 7-14 is alkaline. The pH of 7.4 is just a little more on the alkaline side. Dr. Batmanghelidj adds: “Thus, pH 7.4 of the interior of the cell denotes its natural, slightly alkaline state. This state promotes health because it is the state that best suits the enzymes that function inside the cell: They achieve optimum efficiency at this pH. Adequate flow of water in and out of the cell keeps the cell interior in its health-maintaining, alkaline state.” In order to keep the acidity down in our bodies, we must continue to stay hydrated.
