In this article we´re going to talk about the benefits of taking seawater and pHour Salts.
Sea Water and pHour Salts
The Benefits of drinking Sea Water
Much has been said about the medicinal benefits of seawater when consumed orally. René Quinton (1867 – 1925) discovered the qualities of seawater and how to apply it for medical purposes. He created the famous marine dispensaries in France for healing purposes, as isotonic seawater (one part seawater to three parts freshwater) closely resembles our own plasma/blood.
Seawater gently contributes to an alkaline environment thanks to its composition of minerals and trace elements. In fact, it contains all the elements of the periodic table. And when taken It also helps detoxify, oxygenate, alkalize and nourish the body, as well as strengthens bones.
Moreover, seawater baths are highly beneficial and therapeutic. They balance the skin’s pH and help fight against skin diseases such as psoriasis and various types of eczemas.
Seawater helps regenerate cells and clear mucus from the lungs, relieving colds and nasal congestion.
Alkaline Care’s pHour Salts
pHour Salts are another wonder of nature. They are designed to mimic the four most prevalent mineral salts in the human body that are essential for life itself: two carbonates and two bicarbonates. In this case, we are talking about sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, calcium carbonate, and magnesium carbonate. Without these essential minerals, also known as basic electrolytes, we would not survive.
Our body produces bicarbonate, especially sodium bicarbonate, in the pancreas and kidneys, with the latter maintaining the body’s acid-base balance.
The kidneys produce an average of 250 grams of bicarbonates daily to alkalize the blood, which must always remain at a pH of 7.365/7.4.
In 2009, British scientists from the Royal London Hospital discovered that chronic kidney disease (chronic renal insufficiency) could improve with the simple intake of sodium bicarbonate. These findings were first published by the American Society of Nephrology in July 2009, marking one of the most significant discoveries regarding kidney disease.
Therefore, the kidneys are responsible for filtering and reabsorbing bicarbonate (acid excretion), synthesizing ammonium and bicarbonate. As for the pancreas, it also needs bicarbonates to synthesize gastric juices.
It’s important to highlight that of all these minerals, bicarbonate is the ion most secreted by the pancreas—between 120 and 300 molecules per day—to neutralize the acidic chyme from the stomach and ensure optimal functioning of our pancreatic enzymes.
Lastly, it’s worth noting that bicarbonate is also found in erythrocytes (red blood cells). It’s well known that human hemoglobin is the primary blood buffer and a low count indicates acidity and lack of oxygen at the cellular level.
Benefits of pHour Salts
These alkalizing mineral salts are our best allies in helping the alkaline/oxygen process of our tissues become faster and more efficient.
They instantly provide essential minerals that help improve overall well-being, give energy, vitality and a feeling of wellness.
One of its greatest qualities is its ability to neutralize excess stomach acids without affecting the proper production of hydrochloric acid. This is important because the proper production of stomach acid facilitates the absorption of minerals, vitamins, and essential nutrients.
These simple salts can improve the health of people with kidney disease and those with digestive issues of all kinds without interfering with the proper production of hydrochloric acid. They can also benefit people with diabetes and many other chronic conditions.
By providing rapid alkalization, pHour Salts also increases oxygen production in the body, resulting in immediate energy, increased ATP production, enhanced cognitive function, better mood, greater mental clarity, and improved athletic performance. Another notable quality is that they help preserve gut flora by maintaining the proper pH level in the colon. Lastly, they help counteract low-grade acidosis that occurs in the body due to an unhealthy lifestyle and negative emotions.
Taking Seawater and pHour Salts
In conclusion, seawater and pHour Salts can be taken together, as both offer interesting benefits—some similar, but others different.
For us, the great quality of seawater, in summary, is its nutritional value, like a superfood, not only because of its mineral content but also due to its trace elements. In other words, it helps fight against malnutrition.
On the other hand, pHour Salts provides instant remineralization/alkalization/oxygenation when it’s needed most resulting in energy, vitality and well-being as outlined above. They help keep our natural alkaline design.
