Sense of Balance

Our muscles also play a significant part in our balance. The major low back muscles control the body balance to such a degree, that if there is a weakness in any of these muscles, it will impair one’s balance. That is why if the individual is suffering with low back pain, their balance will be impaired. Underneath these major low back muscles, there are also minor groups of intrinsic muscles that add to the support of the spine as well. Very often these muscles are weakened due to spinal conditions that occur, such as a spinal misalignment. A misalignment of any of the spinal segments is known as a subluxation. When subluxations occur, the nerves emanating from the spinal cord, and through the foramina (openings), are either irritated or pinched. In this occurrence, there is a misfiring of the nerve stimuli sent by the intrinsic muscles to the brain. This misfiring causes a loss of spinal stability, and the result is an imbalance in the proprioception system, and the body loses its ability to maintain a normal balance.

An individual that has a scenario as described above, will have a weakened proprioceptor system, and they will be prone to falls and accidents, that will further put them at risk for causing fractures or more spinal subluxations. Normal body balance is lost, putting the individual at serious risk for more bodily harm.

Aging, very often plays a major part in the normal balance of the body and the gradual loss thereof. Starting at around the age of 50, there is a gradual deterioration of all the body senses that maintain normal balance. This will be especially true of the individual who has maintained a sedentary lifestyle. Such a lifestyle will have weakened the muscles and spinal integrity. As the muscles lose mass, they will be weaker, unless the individual has maintained an active lifestyle. Read the rest of this entry »

With a balanced inner body, you will have a healthier and leaner outer body. You will give yourself the chance to lose weight and you will gain energy to do your daily tasks without any slow downs.

As mentioned in a previous article, the importance of alkaline body balancing is paramount to fend of most common ailments, disorders and diseases. Arguably the most important of which is Cancer, which has the perfect spreading ground in an body balance with an acidic pH level, commonly known as acidosis.

Check this out: A medical scientist, Otto Warburg, two time winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine commented;
“There is no disease whose prime cause is better known, so that today ignorance is no longer an excuse that one cannot do more about prevention of cancer.” What did he say? Is he saying that the average person should know damn well by now that in an alkaline balanced body there is NO CHANCE of CANCER GROWTH? Wow if it’s that simple, what do we need to do to prevent cancer?

In his discoveries of the early 60′s, he was lead to the fact that the number one mineral nutrient in our bodies, Calcium, and the abundance of it in the blood stream, was a major contributor to the proper alkalinity of the body’s fluids. Calcium’s presence in the blood stream is paramount based on the fact that the Mineral Calcium is needed to properly Oxidize the blood and operate the nutrient channel through which the cells’ nutrients enter and exit. Conversely, it’s lack thereof was evidenced by the low pH balance into the acidic zone, giving way to carcinogens and toxins for entry into a ruptured cell. Read the rest of this entry »
