Why did Eczema developed after a few days use?
You get different eczema's.  The summary of eczema is basically a type of skin inflammation or skin irritation.  In certain conditions eczema is a method of your metabolism to get rid of the acids in your body.  The easiest way for the body to expel these acids are through the skin.

Keep drinking Base Powder with allot of water, it will get better as soon as the acid / alkaline levels have been stabilised to a standard level.

How do I know whether I suffer from acidosis?
Acute acidosis affects everybody at regular intervals.  It occurs when you eat acid or acid-forming foods subject yourself to extremely intense physical strain, drink too much coffee or alcohol and do not drink enough water – any one of these can trigger acidosis.

Acute acidosis can have symptoms, but not in all cases.  Puffy eyes, gastroenteritis, joint problems are signs that the metabolism is shifting temporarily into the acidic range.

Is alkaline nutrition sufficient to win the battle against acidosis?
The answer is definitely not.  An additional supplement of alkaline valences in a combination offers enormous advantages.

The wrong assumption that the acid/alkaline balance will regulate itself has to be done away with, once and for all.  The additional regular intake of alkaline valences is of enormous value to convalescence and the maintenance of health.

Why should alkaline powder be sodium-free?
It is common to find an absolute overload of sodium chloride in the body, whereas a sodium deficiency is very rare indeed.  Our foods preserved and flavored with common salts.  We consume multiple quantities of the daily requirement of sodium.

The kidney’s ability to excrete acid is blocked by common salt and the body is no longer capable of excreting sufficient acid valences.  An inactive acidosis (latent acidosis) develops.

Our diet already has enough salt.  Various research projects have proved that better results can be achieved with sodium-free alkaline powder.  That alone substantiates that sodium is not necessary.

Why should alkaline powder contain selenium?
Laboratory tests indicate that many people have a selenium deficiency.  Selenium is known as an important trace element and as a vital ingredient of enzymes with an ant-oxidizing effect.  It also protects against oxidative stress, which destroys health and is potentially harmful to your well-being.

Selenium acts as an antidote against chronic stress caused by heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and mercury.  Detoxification is one of the desirable effects of alkaline powder.

Selenium is added to alkaline powder because of its protective property against free radicals.  The strengthening of the immune system and the furthering of detoxification are effects that cannot be renounced.

Can children take alkaline powder?
Contrary to former assumptions that children hardly ever suffer from acidosis, the nutrition of our future generation has unfortunately changed so drastically that even infants suffer from excess acid.  This phenomenon applies in particular to overweight children in whom the natural acidosis is both cause and effect.

The most common symptom is so-called navel colic.  These children have tummy aches that are located in the area of the navel.

Parents often report that their children’s skin problems have improved.  The excessively produced acids play a big role.  They cannot be excreted in the normal way and that is why the body attempts to dispose of them through the skin.  The acids then get stuck in the skin and this can cause severe inflammation.  For this reason many doctors recommend different diets that are meant to de-acidify and this often effectively cures skin diseases.

When should I drink alkaline powder?
Don’t take immediately after meals.

In a de-acidification treatment the powder should be taken approximately fifteen to twenty minutes after a meal and with enough water, three times a day.

The maintenance dosage of one teaspoon a day must be taken fifteen to twenty minutes after a meal.

When you want to lose weight, take the powder with lots of water fifteen minutes before meals.

Sportsmen and high-performance athletes should take alkaline substances preferably before as well as during and after the physical activity.  This causes a reduced formation of lactic acid and the lactic tolerance is increased.  It also means the training person needs lots of water to increase his performance.
