Scientists have discovered that the body fluids of healthy people are alkaline (high pH) while the body fluids of sick people are acidic (low pH). Most of us have healthy, alkaline body fluids as children, but as we reach our thirties and beyond, more minerals leave our bodies than we ingest. It is this loss of minerals that causes our bodies to become increasingly acidic. Acidosis (low pH body chemistry) is the primary indicator of Calcium Deficiency Disease. Coral calcium is HIGHLY effective in reversing acidosis.
