So I read this article this morning and am worried fir the people in Italy. If there are any Italians on the board, or if you have relatives in Italy to please tell them to alkalize their bodies. Baking soda in water helps but also the NIH said this treatment helps to defeat viruses. I’ve included some info from various articles on some ways to do this, I hope this helps some people

Italy: Coronavirus Death Toll Rises 16 Percent in 24 Hours, Exceeds 2,500. In the last 24 hours, 345 more people have died in Italy from the Chinese coronavirus, which brings the nation’s death toll to 2,503 on Tuesday, up from 2,158 on Monday — an increase of 16 percent in one day

Newly released data from Italy’s Civil Protection reveals that the country’s death toll has jumped from 2,158 deaths on Monday to 2,503 on Tuesday, as well as 27,980 confirmed coronavirus cases on Monday to 31,506 on Tuesday==

How Does All this Science About Our Body’s pH Work?

You can measure the level of acidity in almost anything – water, soil, animals, plants, and people by measuring its pH. The pH measures the concentration of the hydrogen ion in the body and works with a scale that goes from 1 to 14. A pH below seven is considered acidic, a pH of seven is neutral, and anything above is considered basic or alkaline. The ideal pH for our bodies is slightly alkaline: 7.30 to 7.45.

You can test your body’s pH by doing a urine test. However, you should be aware that dehydration, infections, bacterial overgrowth, and other issues can affect your urinary pH test. It’s safe to assume your body is too acidic if you are suffering from a chronic disease or symptoms such as:

Constipation

Confusion

Salt cravings

Rapid, shallow breath/ difficulty holding breath

Frequent urination

Swelling and bloating

Poor brain function/ brain fog

Poor sleep

Tremors

Acne

Let’s Get That pH Alkalized!

First of all, ideally a person should only have 20 percent acidic foods (e.g. meat, dairy products, refined carbohydrates [including sugar], and coffee). The rest of one’s diet should be filled with alkaline or neutral foods. In addition, here are some tips to getting rid of toxic acids and alkalize your body.

Alkaline Water: Water generally has a pH of seven. Alkaline water has a pH of eight or nine. This is due to an increased number of in the water. Several studies prove that this water alleviates certain conditions. One study suggests alkalize water may benefit people suffering from high cholesterol, blood pressure, and diabetes. Another study shows how drinking alkaline water (of a pH level of 8.8) can help deactivate pepsin, the main enzyme causing acid reflux.

Acupuncturist Karen Lester has seen a lot of her patients benefit from drinking alkaline water.

Whenever I get a patient with gastro issues, the first thing I do is recommend they start drinking only alkaline water. Many times they’ll notice a positive shift in their health, within two weeks, just from making this shift.

Baking Soda and Water: This is one of my favorite ways to alkalize, because it’s easy and you can feel the effects right away. My parents, who were never into natural health, were able to get off their acid-reflux medication just by using this trick and trick number five (below). Mix a teaspoon on natural baking soda in a cup of water and drink it first thing in the morning.

Italy: Coronavirus Death Toll Rises 16 Percent in 24 Hours, Exceeds 2,500

In the last 24 hours, 345 more people have died in Italy from the Chinese coronavirus, which brings the nation’s death toll to 2,503 on Tuesday, up from 2,158 on Monday — an increase of 16 percent in one day.

Newly released data from Italy’s Civil Protection reveals that the country’s death toll has jumped from 2,158 deaths on Monday to 2,503 on Tuesday, as well as 27,980 confirmed coronavirus cases on Monday to 31,506 on Tuesday.

Italy — which is Europe’s hardest hit country by the Chinese virus — has been on a nationwide lockdown since last week, while the coronavirus death toll and confirmed cases continues to rise, most of them heavily concentrated in Italy’s northern regions.

Lombardy remains Italy’s worst-infected region, which so far has suffered a total of 16,620 people infected by the Wuhan virus and 1,640 deaths, including 220 more dead in the last 24 hours alone, according to La Repubblica.

The report added that more than 8,000 people in Italy were reported failing to comply with quarantine rules.

Right now, people in Italy must fill out paperwork in order to leave their homes to buy groceries or visit hospitals, as officers are now stationed at checkpoints on main roads and at transport hubs, asking people to declare their reasons for travel.

The forms are known as “self-certifying” or “self-declaring.”

“The self-declaration form also arises from the need to manage any contact with people, for tracking, and any checks,” said Angelo Borrellim, the head of Italy’s Civil Protection.

“Between the interest of collective health and the interest in privacy we have found an excellent balance, but the first must prevail, otherwise the second cannot be protected,” he added.
