Were all born alkaline until we spoil that pH balance with poor diet and dehydration. As you become more acidic, you make it harder for your natural immune system to work, as it has to fight to neutralize this acidity before it can even think about guarding you and fighting off illness.
Healthy blood is always alkaline. It tries to have a pH value of 7.4 - or as close to this as it can. The brain does all it can to maintain this level - pulling water from various cells to dilute the acidity but also bringing with it your stores of calcium Wholesale Oakley Sunglasses, because it is your bodys largest and most easily transported store of alkaline mineral.
That might sound like a good idea then, but the trouble is - you have a lot of calcium in you for a reason - because your organs and need it. But they get stripped of calcium if your body calls your calcium stores into action to fight excess acidity. That means that the organs now deficient in calcium will struggle to stay alive - and so will you: at least - you wont feel too well.
You should therefore maintain your bodys stores of water with the right balance of calcium and sodium Replica Oakley Sunglasses, and a ph value of 8.5-9.5 to keep yourself in peak condition, functioning well and able to fight of illness and disease.
A minimum of six to eight glasses of slightly alkaline water is what you need each day to maintain proper hydration. These shouldnt be mixed with other things like tea and coffee which are diuretics and actually strip your body of more water than you put back in.
Youll need to drink more when youre exercising as as little as an hours exercise can rid you of a liter of water. That sounds like a lot, doesnt it, but not only do you lose this water through sweating - which most people will be aware of; during exercise, you breath harder, maybe even pant. This helps you to lose further fluid through evaporation. Drink before, during and after exercising to help put back the fluid you lost.
When youre ill, you lose water in various ways: diarrhea, sweating and coughing, etc. Great - now Ive left you with that beautiful image, leave yourself a jug of water conveniently so that you dont have to make the effort to go get a drink - because you just wont do it. You might even be able to sweet-talk a loved one into bringing you the water.
As you get older Cheap Ray Bans, your thirst decreases, but not your need for water. Your body has just got so used to you ignoring your thirst that it just doesnt even bother telling you anymore. That doesnt mean you need to take in any less water.
So space out your water around your meals and your activities, but drink, drink, drink- its good for you!
The high altitude is detectable: some airtight wrapped cookie packs explode. We have our altimeter: A bottle - tightly closed at 4900m - is getting "stiff" as we approach the maximum elevation of 5070m. At the moment, the bottle looks wrinkled, as we return to below 4200 meters.
We pass 5075m. The highest point accessible by train. A great feeling, but neither land nor humans and animals seem to share our excitement. Outside, there is no snow and the water looks rather watery - no ice. Yaks, sheep or goats do not display signs of enthusiasm. Also, the people - mostly shepherds - are not really affected by the feat of engineering.
Have now been more than 8 hours over 4000m with around 100 km/h on the train track. The area is huge! Slowly we feel the lack of air! Beside us a little giant. This should probably be more than 6000m. However, it does not feel so much because we are already at 4000m. Interestingly, there is almost no snow and it looks hot outside. At a station with an unutterable Chinese name we go outside for fresh air. Fresh yes, but air? We hope that we will somehow get used to the altitude. There are a lot of yaks outside and none of them wears an oxygen mask. But it is likely that the yaks feed from the said root. So we copy them and drink even more of our brew. Tastes shitty, so it should have a good effect.
After 24 hours on the train we meet in an ultramodern railway station in Lhasa. Unfortunately, there are still some aftereffects of last year's riots to be felt. There are a lot of army around the station. Buses are not allowed to drive up to the arrival hall, resulting in a walk of 10min for each tourist. Normally, no problem. However, there is a little problem if the tourists come from a train with oxygen supply and suddenly experience the "normal" low-oxygen air in Lhasa at 3650m altitude and have to carry their own suitcases. Perhaps this is a test of the qualities of tourists. Our tour group seems to pass the test.
