Sanum Alkala N
HIGH QUALITY ALKALISER RESTORES BALANCE
ALKALA N Mineral Powder is a best selling alkaliser usedby more than 30,000 natural health practitioners worldwide. Developed over 30 years ago, it is the original Sanum-Kehlbeck alkaliser for health.
Manufactured in Germany to the very highest standards,ALKALA N powder contains pure sodium and potassium bicarbonate plus sodium citrate to help buffer acids and maintain an optimal pH balance for health.
Combined with a varied and balanced diet, ALKALA Nhelps regeneration by neutralising built up acids and enables detoxification thereby increasing energy and well-being.
Why Sodium Bicarbonate & Potassium Bicarbonate
The four buffering minerals used in the body include sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium. the key ingredients in good alkalising agent are sodium and potassium bicarbonate. The sodium and potassium help bring the bicarbonate component into the cells via the sodium-potassium pumps. The bicarbonate then becomes raw material to support the digestive and alkalophilic organs including: the pancreas to form enzymes; the stomach to form hydrochloric acid; and the liver to form bile. In this process, the excess hydrogen ions are being used up in the chemical reactions, thus decreasing the acidic burden of the milieu and restoring the normal acid-base balance.
pH: FOUNDATION FOR HEALTH
Each system of the body has its own physiological pH value and when the tissue or organ varies too far from that pH range, it becomes susceptible to disease. Blood is normallyslightly alkaline and our bodies work constantly to maintainthe delicate acid-alkaline balance that is so vital for health.
If over-acidity is not rebalanced for many years we willbecome prone to fatigue, negative psychological states and awide range of minor ailments, which are sometimes confusedwith symptoms of ageing. An acidic body increases a tendencytowards allergies, inflammation, aches and pains and acceleratesoverall degeneration. An alkaliser will aid in reducing tissue acidosis and will shift the acid-base balance to a normal range, promoting good health and well-being.
WHAT CAUSES ACID-ALKALINE IMBALANCE?
s so this is when the body needs supportwith daily supplementation with an alkaliser.
How to Take
The ideal times to take an alkaliser are 10am and 4pm, the low energetic time for the pancreas according to Traditional Chinese Medicine. Taking an alkaliser during these times supports and boosts the activity of the pancreas in addition to aiding digestion. If this is inconvenient taking it twice daily in the morning and before bed will do just fine.
Alkala N should be taken on an empty stomach to avoid interference with the hydrochloric acid production needed for digestion of food, at least 20 minutes before or two hours after eating. Alkala N should be taken with warm water, as this allows the alkaliser to bypass the stomach through the pyloric sphincter and go directly into the duodenum to be absorbed. It is important to monitor the levels of the pH during the time of using Alkala N and the pH values should remain between 7.0 and 8.0 while alkalising, as this alkaline state helps use up the excess hydrogen ions. Dosage of Alkala N is generally between 1/2 scoop to 1 scoop two to three times daily, depending on how acidic the body is.
The length of time to take Alkala N depends on the pH values. Generally, Alkala N is taken for approximately five to six months and should be combined with an alkaline diet, however in some case with extreme acidosis of the tissue, Alkala N may be taken up two years, naturally if one is going to take Alkala N for two years it is best to take one month break from Alkala N each year and the dose lowered after 8 months. It is best at one scoop per day. In taking Alkala N it is recommended that it is initially taken for two months, and then stopped for a few days, and then the pH levels are measured again. If these values are still on the acidic side, then continue alkalising for another month each time stopping for a few days and retesting, continue until the desired pH is reached. The Alkala N is mechanically shifting the acid out of the body, and it is said that what Alkala N can do in three to four months, will take over two to three years to accomplish the same results eating a vegetarian diet alone.
How to Watch Your pH Improve
Test your pH morning and evening before eating ordrinking. Tear off a test strip with dry fingers and hold itin your urine stream until wet. Compare with the colourchart within 2 minutes and see which is the closest match. Record your readings, pH values of:
5.2 - 6.0 increase Alkala intake
6.2 - 6.8 maintain Alkala intake
7.0 - 7.4 reduce Alkala intake
