Take the test to find out how quickly you are aging because of your lifestyle...

   Diet.
   Build up of toxins and acidity in the body.

   None. I don’t like water, and I don’t feel I need it.
   One or two, when I am really thirsty.
   I know I should drink about 5 glasses, but I can’t seem to manage it every day.
   At least 5 to 8 glasses.

6. 6. What is the purpose of antioxidants?
   Protect the body against free radical damage.
   Protect the body from harmful oxidizing effects that wear and tear at healthy tissue.
   Help protect cells from cancer.
   Can help minimize the effect that pollution, including tobacco smoke, has on the human body.

10. 10. Over time, acidity in the diet causes the body to dissolve minerals that it needs; such as calcium and magnesium.

    False. Bones simply wear away and weaken as we age.

    Seasonal changes
    Stress or illness
    Lack of exercise
    Dietary imbalances causing an acidity in the body

15. 15. The fountain of youth could very well be...
    Discovered shortly by scientists.
    A high-protein diet.
    Proper ph balance including a healthy diet with proper hydration.
    A cosmetic procedure.

16. 16. Bottled juice from the grocery store has all the same benefits to your health and beauty than freshly pressed juice.
    True. That’s why the juice is so expensive.
    False. The enzymes in fruit are most potent when they are fresh.

17. 17. Counting calories is the single most important thing you can do for your waistline.
    True. Calories in = calories out.
    False. A calorie is a rough measure of how much energy is in a food. There are additional reasons why the body stores excesses as fat.

18. 18. Being properly hydrated affects your looks, and can undo signs of aging such as listless skin, dull eyes and weak hair.
    True. Water is responsible for all these functions, and so many more!

Your result

It is unfortunate, but according to your results you may believe that you have very little control over your body’s fight against aging. Because of this, you could be taking a backseat and letting your body look and feel older than it should.

Although you are not completely satisfied with the way you look and feel, you’re probably also not doing everything you can to help it, maybe you feel the task is just too daunting? Changing your lifestyle would certainly be difficult...and the changes would be so slow that you would lose motivation, right?

Wrong.

Fortunately, making small changes can be a huge impact if you balance the acidifying effects of your diet. This isn't based on a fad/starvation style of dieting. This is a way of eating and looking at food, that our ancestors would have appreciated. Imagine your great-great grandmother seeing a frozen, less-than-delicious-but-at-least-it’s-convenient meal that you pop in a microwave. It wouldn’t even look like food to her, and you know, she’s right. This meal is robbing your taste buds of flavor and your body of nutrients. Instead, reach for food like fresh fruits and vegetables and enjoy them alone, in salads or with healthy dips. Just a few days of eating unprocessed and unrefined foods in their “natural” state and rehydrating your body will start revitalizing you and make you look and feel great. I welcome you to try the acid-alkaline diet program for just three days to realize how much a few small changes can really make to the way you look and feel - inside and out.

Your result

Based on your results, you may look pretty good for your age!

You know the impact that diet has on your body; both on the inside and the outside. You don’t need to be convinced that a change in diet can affect you overall health and especially your weight, but did you know that you can also affect how your body responds to aging?

Fatigue, aches and pains, dehydrated and sallow skin, dull hair and brittle nails are all affected by what you eat.

The acid-alkaline diet is a relatively simple diet principle that will make the most impact on how you look in feel...and in the least amount of time! By incorporating whole foods, and in the right combination and amount, as well as learning the benefits of alkalizing your diet, you will feel as though you have stepped back 10 years.

Vitality that you thought was a distant memory of youth will come bouncing back, and you won’t be the only one noticing the difference in how you look!

• I took the test and the results were good. It did say that I may look pretty good for my age and that is true. I am nearly 60 and I am often told that I look good and in my late 40s!I have good skin as I take care of my skin and eat quite healthly. I feel it also has to do with ones genes as my mother is alive and well at 91! Whoa!

• My sister has recently found out that her pH level is very high/low – bit confused about that bit! She has also just been diagnosed with osteoarthritis and suffers terribly with UTI’s. She has been told that her pH problem could be contributing to these problems and is therefore looking for alternate ways to assist control of her pH levels.
