Basentabs pH-balance Pascoe

When might the acid-base balance need support?

The acid-base balance should be given much more attention in the case of:

• ongoing stress
• heavy physical exertion, sports
• lack of exercise
• unbalanced diet
• fasting

Dietary supplement containing base minerals. With zinc to support the acid-base balance.

A well-regulated acid-base balance is a good basis for health: For all of the body’s important metabolic functions to run optimally, the acid-base balance needs to well-regulated.

Today's lifestyle habits can affect your acid-base balance: Do you eat a lot of meat, sausage and cheese, but little fruit and vegetables? Do you smoke? Do you drink alcohol? Are you finding no time for exercise? Are you fasting? Do you play competitive sports? These things could result in an increased acid load. To neutralise acids, the body needs bicarbonates. The mineral zinc is essential for bicarbonate formation and thus for a balanced acid-base metabolism.

The role of zinc and minerals

Zinc is valuable for the formation of buffer substances and contributes to a normal acid-base metabolism .

It also contributes to:

•  the maintenance of normal hair,
• the maintenance of normal nails,
• the maintenance of normal skin,
• the maintenance of normal vision
• and the maintenance of a normal function of the immune system.

Zinc also helps to protect cells from oxidative stress. Minerals such as calcium and magnesium contribute to normal muscle function and to the maintenance of bones. Magnesium is also important in reducing fatigue and for the function of the nervous system. Calcium is important for the energy metabolism.

Basentabs pH-balance Pascoe^® - a Cologne List^® product

The Cologne List^® is an initiative by the Olympiastützpunkt Rheinland (Rhineland Olympic Training Centre) offering top athletes a list of dietary supplements that are subject to regular product analyses, with the aim of minimising the risk of doping. 

A study sponsored by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has shown that approximately 15% of the dietary supplements purchased in 13 different countries contained anabolic steroids, mainly prohormones, which were not listed on the package. Also in Germany, approx. 11% of dietary supplements tested contained prohibited anabolic steroids.

The Cologne List^® is, therefore, primarily an aid for athletes to reduce the risk of doping when taking dietary supplements.
