Our bodies become out of balance by us always eating acidic forming foods, our lifestyle choices & the environment we’re exposed to. When our bodies are acidic for a long time…our bodies start to strip alkalising minerals (such as calcium, magnesium, potassium) from our bones, teeth & organs to keep it in balance. This impacts on our skin & hair – making us age quicker. It also encourages a playground for bacteria, fungus & viruses to wreak havoc.

By eating an alkalising diet full of nuts & seeds, sprouted grains, green vegies & fruits we can help slow down the signs of ageing. Throw in keeping stress at bay, staying positive, quit smoking & drinking, laughing out loud regularly & sharing a hug or two…then you’re on the road to long term health….Everlasting Health!!

Broccoli & Avocado Soup…YUM!!
