[Acid-alkaline balance — is your diet the key to healthy bones?
Dr. Susan E. Brown, PhD

by Dr. Susan E. Brown, PhD

There’s a very simple approach to improving the health of your bones that practitioners here in the US have overlooked for almost a century now. It’s available to anyone, it’s natural, and it’s not even terribly expensive — you don’t even need health insurance to use it. That’s because the approach is based on understanding our internal chemistry, specifically our pH balance, and learning how to make nutritional and lifestyle choices to keep our pH in the optimal range.

If your high school chemistry class seems like it happened a century ago, here’s a quick refresher course. You may remember that pH is a measurement of the relative acidity or alkalinity of a solution. pH is determined by the amount of positively charged ions in the solution — in the form of free hydrogen (H+) — and is measured in a spectrum ranging from zero to fourteen, with acidic solutions at the low end of the spectrum (0), alkaline solutions at the high end (14), and neutral pH in the middle (7).]
