The reason why Juice Plus+ products can be highly effective at reducing food cravings and promoting weight loss is simply because their primary ingredients are dried, organic, fruits and vegetables.What this means is that when they are mixed with water, they help to promote an alkaline PH within the body by releasing powerful antioxidants.
Through my research over the last five years into the benefits of maintaining a healthy alkaline balance within the body through diet and exercise, I have discovered that maintaining an internal alkaline environment is the most effective way to promote weight loss and prevent food cravings and here's why: In an over acidic body caused by a typical western diet and the stresses of daily life, we produce a fatty substance known as cholesterol to wrap up acidic, radical toxins, to protect our vital organs from radical damage, otherwise known as oxidative stress which is also the cause of pretty much all disease. The body then stores this fatty substance in areas such as the stomach, however it can't be released until the toxins have been neutralised or flushed from the body. In an over acid body we also crave carbohydrates and sugary foods because our cells can only produce cellular energy known as ATP, via a process known as glycolysis, better known as fermentation, this means that we require 18 times more calories to produce the same amount of cellular energy, therefore we will be 18 times more hungry when we are over acid, than we will be when we are healthy and alkaline. Therefore, because Juice Plus+ is full of natural ant- oxidants, it neutralises acid radicals and in turn, helps to restore the body's PH to an alkaline equilibrium and this allows our toxic fat reserves to be released and curbs our hunger and ultimately provides us with more energy to live a healthy and active life.View the original article here

Along with the delicious alkaline recipes featured on this blog and www.harradinehealth.com I am currently writing a pioneering and comprehensive, alkaline recipe book entitled: "Quantum AlkalineCuisine" containing many delicious alkaline recipes, along with the principles of alkaline nutrition and my advanced alkaline diet plan entitled the V10 H Plan that has been specifically designed to promote weight loss and optimal health.
This blog; "Alkaline Diet Recipes,"along with "Quantum Alkaline Cuisine," and "Harradine Health" are all based on the discoveries I have made regarding the importance of maintaining a healthy, alkaline balance within the body and its connection with the food we eat , our thoughts and the energetic , health principles of the east. I have then combined my experience as a chef and knowledge of alkaline cuisine and nutrition to create a huge range of delicious, alkaline adaptations of popular dishes, and many tasty new creations, as well as an advanced alkaline diet plan entitled the " V 10 HPlan," that has been specifically created with the founding principles of alkaline nutrition to promote weight loss, disease regression and greater levels of health and vitality.My journey of discovery started around five years ago and has allowed me to uncover how eating a healthy alkaline diet, is quite literally; "the most powerful thing we can all do to prevent disease and illness, promote weight loss, postpone ageing and manifest greater levels of health, vitality and mental clarity." My discoveries have also provided me with a comprehensive, quantum understanding, of the workings of health, disease, nutrition and life itself. However, despite all of this knowledge being known by eastern health practitioners, monks and yogis for millennia , its importance is still relatively undiscovered by western health and nutrition. This is one of the reasons why alkaline cookery still remains on the back burner, and has not yet been fully embraced by enough chefs, restaurants or supermarkets to become a mainstream, approach to health and cuisine. Another reason for this is because most of the current attempts at alkaline cuisine remain to diverse and extreme compared to the diets many are used to.Therefore, my mission for the foreseeable future is to promote the scientific importance of eating a healthy alkaline diet and to create many of my delicious, alkaline recipes so that we can all continue to enjoy the food we love and stay alkaline simply by making a few minor changes to our cooking techniques and ingredients. My ultimate aim however, is to ensuring "Quantum Alkaline Cuisine" becomes the first approach to prevent disease and promote health and vitality in the future.
