In general, protein-based foods are highly acid forming in the human body. This is because their predominant minerals are the acidic minerals ― chlorine, phosphorus, and sulfur. To maintain homeostasis, the body must counterbalance the acidity caused by excess protein consumption. Unfortunately, it does so in part by taking a precious alkaline mineral ― calcium ― from our bloodstream. The body replaces calcium into the bloodstream, where calcium levels must remain relatively constant, by removing it from our bones and teeth, setting the stage for osteoporosis and tooth decay.
It is no coincidence that fruits and vegetables contain just the right amount of protein to build and maintain the human body. Nor is it a coincidence that the minerals they supply are predominantly the alkaline ones: calcium, sodium, magnesium and potassium.
Scientifically speaking, a Plant-Based Diet is much more beneficial and less harmful for humans, which is why it is recommended to shift from meat to whole grains, legumes, vegetables and other nutritional foods of this kind.
The goal of this Bundle is simple: provide all the information that you need to know in order to get ALL the benefits from a Plant-Based Diet.
