so today I want to actually discuss uric acid and how you could detoxify uric

acid from your kidneys and from your body most people have this idea that

uric acid is primarily a waste product only but it has some other functions

that you may not know about number one it can act to stimulate the nervous

system okay because the chemistry of uric acid is very similar to caffeine so

it’s a neuro stimulant it can actually bring up your mental focus even though

it’s a it has oxidative properties it also has antioxidant properties as

well it can help to neutralize very reactive compounds like something called

hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide and even chelate iron

because excessive iron is very very harmful in the body another function it

actually can help your immune system so it’s not all bad and there’s several

ways that uric acid can build up in the body

number one fructose is one let’s say you consume a lot of chocolates also you can

actually increase more protein and even being in a high carb diet and then

having pre-diabetes or even diabetes can increase your uric acid levels but

fasting and this is what I’m going to talk about fasting it’s a certain point

can spike this uric acid because your body needs these this antioxidant in

certain studies it can increase between 4.1 milligrams per deciliter to ten

point seven milligrams per deciliter so it’s gonna spike up but it’s like a bell

curve and it comes right back down now if you’re susceptible to getting uric

acid kidney stones or gout there’s a couple things you need to realize maybe

you need to increase your vegetables or decrease your animal protein okay

because of this if your urine is slightly too acidic okay you’ll have a

tendency to retain uric acid in the kidney if you just alkalizing you’re in

a little bit what happens is this uric acid then can actually come out to the

kidneys and you can urinate it out so when you look at uric acid levels let’s

say there I in the blood if you’re doing a test

you really have to understand the whole picture and realize that it may be

having these other effects it’s not all bad but if you wanted some symptomatic

relief here’s what you could do you can actually take potassium citrate which is

alkaline you can consume more vegetables which I think you should do you can cut

down your proteins you can also take something called sodium bicarbonate

which is baking soda a real simple solution you take the teaspoon not

heaping in 12 ounces of water dissolve it drink it in your fasting state maybe

right before you go to bed but don’t drink it right when you’re you’re eating

because that will neutralize the stomach acid and it might be harder to digest so

to recap these two remedies are more for a symptomatic relief ultimately you just

need to increase your vegetables decrease your protein to correct this

imbalance so that way your pH can be correct alright thanks for watching so
