URINE AS INDICATOR

It is extremely important that the morning's first voiding of urine be ACID. The more acid the better. This means that the body is excreting these acids.

If your first morning voiding of urine is alkaline, then that is not a good sign. (***Unless of course, you are in "perfect health" and are watching your diet, your lotions, etc. and are no longer taking in excessive poisons or toxins...)

Check this out with any really good naturopath so that you can feel comfortable about this information.

To check your pH.

The first morning void. Needs to be a least 5 hrs of sleep prior to testing. Before eating drinking or exercising. Void your urine in a cup and dip the pH paper in the cup. Check the pH against numbers showing on the pH package. This will tell you where your pH is. If you are not getting the 5-hrs rest before testing, then automatically consider that your pH is off. You need more alkalinity (more neutralizer). At the same time do a saliva test. Just spit on your pH paper while sitting on the toilet getting first morning void. The saliva test is the emotional pH of the body, but can change the pH in the urine very quickly! That is your Physical pH reading. If you can bring up the pH you will change your state of health! Emotions can and will throw off the pH making you very sick. Seek help if you're dealing with emotional problems. The optimal urine pH should be between 6.8-7.0.

The pH value is the measurement of hydrogen ion concentration. pH litmus paper is made by coating a piece of paper with a single indicator that will give a good indication for urine and saliva. In testing body fluids, such as urine and saliva, a drop is touched to the litmus paper and the results are indicated by the color chart for its pH value. Please note that litmus paper has an error of 0.5 +/-. For example, if the pH reading is 7.6 using the litmus paper, the actual pH could be anywhere from 7.1 to 8.1.
