To
maintain good health the body is constantly seeking to
get rid of the excess acids that irritate the tissues
and deplete them of minerals. One of the principal
systems it uses for this purpose is the renal system
(kidneys). The normal rate of acid excretion through the
kidneys gives urine a pH that falls between 6.75 and
7.25. By testing the degree of acidity of the urine, you
can determine whether your body is eliminating a normal
quantity of acids. If the acid excretion rate is higher
than normal, the urinary pH will be more acidic. This
low urinary pH is also an indication that the body is
saturated and therefore in an acid state. This is where
alkaline Microwater,
Alkalife pH booster drops, and an alkaline diet
comes in.
Another indicator of the overall pH balance in your body
is the pH of your saliva. When your body has the mineral
reserves that it should, the abundance of minerals will
show up in a saliva ph test as a pH reading of 7.0 to
7.50. A low saliva pH reading indicates that the mineral
reserves in your body are low, and are being used to
buffer acids elsewhere in the body.
There
is a strong correlation between the pH of the body's
internal environment and that of the urine and saliva:
urine and saliva become acidic when the body's internal
environment becomes acidic. You can discover the pH of
these fluids by using pHion™ pH Strips.
These pH test strips are made specifically to test
saliva and urine, and are the most accurate and
economical test strips on the market.
Don't trust your body to just any chemical lab litmus pH
paper.
pHion
Diagnostic
pH Test Strips™
are unlike most
pH test strips or pH papers
on the market. Due to the narrow range in pH of these
bodily fluids (generally 5.8 to 7.6) it is imperative
that a
pH test strip give a
clear indication in small pH unit increments. Ours do.
Our test strips give an indication in .25 pH unit
increments, and test a range of 4.5 to 9.0. Plus, pH
Strips use the double color indicator method, allowing for
a more accurate determination of the pH value of what
you are testing. Throw away the pH paper, and pick up
the pHion Diagnostic pH Test strips.

Compare
pHion Strips™
with standard pH paper from rolls. pH Paper tends to
bleed when it gets wet, making the determination of the
correct color quite a challenge. pH pHion Strips are different-
the reagent is affixed to a plastic strip. No paper, no
bleeding, no mess; easy testing. Alkalive™
pH Strips™
- the clear choice. pHion
Diagnostic pH Test Strips™
come packaged in a pack containing 90 pH test
strips. We offer volume discounts as stated below.
This is what
Dr. Ted Baroody, author of Alkalize or Die has to
say about pHion Strips™: "I get hundreds of calls for
pH testing materials. pH testing is very complex. There
are individual pH testing substances for everything, but
they are very expensive. This particular strip is
reasonably priced too. I have looked a long time and
through many companies to find these quality pH strips.
My experience with litmus pH paper strips has not been
good. I do not recommend them."
SALIVA Test:
Take a saliva reading before and after meals. The
alkaline levels of your saliva should be greater after
meals because there is an abundance of alkaline-rich
minerals in saliva. Then test your saliva 60 minutes
after a meal. If the pH level is lower than 6.75,
then your alkaline mineral reserves are low.
URINE Test: For best test results, test your
second urination in the morning. You will likely see
urine pH become more alkaline as the day progresses.
Test frequently during the day, and determine an
average.
