| Which pH Zone Is YOUR Body In?  | The VERY ACIDIC pH Zone™: 4.5 - 5.75
This "danger zone" is NOT where you want your pH to be. If you’re in this pH Zone™, you MUST take serious steps to correct this acidity. If your pH is in this range, your body is 50 to 100 times too acidic! An internal terrain like this is poison to your cells. |  | The ACIDIC pH Zone™: 6.0 - 6.5
In this "caution" zone, your body is 5 to 10 times too acidic. Making alterations to your diet and supplementing these diet changes with alkalising elements will help to bring your pH back up to The OPTIMAL pH Zone. |  | The OPTIMAL pH Zone™ : 6.75 - 7.25 If your pH Composite Reading™ is in this zone, congratulations! Keep up the good work by maintaining an alkalising lifestyle. | How you can test your pH: Urine Testing: To maintain good health the body is constantly seeking to get rid of the excess acids that irritate the tissues and deplete them of minerals. One of the principal systems it uses for this purpose is the renal system (kidneys). The normal rate of acid excretion through the kidneys gives urine a pH that falls between 6.75 and 7.25. By testing the degree of acidity of the urine, you can determine whether your body is eliminating a normal quantity of acids. If the acid excretion rate is higher than normal, the urinary pH will be more acidic. This low urinary pH is also an indication that the body is saturated and therefore in an acid state. Saliva Testing: Another indicator of the overall pH balance in your body is the pH of your saliva. When your body has the mineral reserves that it should, the abundance of minerals will show up in a saliva ph test as a pH reading of 7.0 to 7.50. A low saliva pH reading indicates that the mineral reserves in your body are low, and are being used to buffer acids elsewhere in the body. There is a strong correlation between the pH of the body’s internal environment and that of the urine and saliva: urine and saliva become acidic when the body’s internal environment becomes acidic. You can discover the pH of these fluids by using pHion pH Stix™. These pH test strips are made specifically to test saliva and urine, and are the most accurate and economical test strips on the market. So why use pH Stix to test your pH Level? phion pH Stix™ are unlike most pH test strips or pH papers on the market. Due to the narrow range in pH of these bodily fluids (generally 5.8 to 7.6) it is imperative that a pH test strip give a clear indication in small pH unit increments. These do. The test strips give an indication in 0.25 pH unit increments, and test a range of 4.5 to 9.0. Plus, pH Stix use the double colour indicator method, allowing for a more accurate determination of the pH value of what you are testing. Throw away the pH paper, and pick up the pH Stix! 
 Compare pH Stix™ with standard litmus paper from rolls. pH Paper tends to bleed when it gets wet, making the determination of the correct color quite a challenge. pH Stix are different- the reagent is affixed to a plastic strip. No paper, no bleeding, no mess; easy testing.
