My Magic Pill is my nutrition. Live food - Live body. By balancing your foods you help your body achieve its maximum potential. By making the switch to an 80% alkaline and 20% acid diet my life has completely changed....I lost weight... I no longer have allergies, medications, headaches, endometriosis pains, knee pains, diabetes type 2 and chronic fatigue. I'm now feeling better than I have ever felt and it's all from learning about food and how by eating the right foods you can heal your life.
Adopting a diet that allows for closer to 80% Alkaline foods and 20% Acid foods can help you regain PH balance as well as help address a number of health related issues.
