Where is the starting place for All Around Good Health?
The place to start your good health is at the beginning. The Single Cell.
Whenever you have a disease, if its diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, etc., you have to get to the root of the problem, don't just treat the symptoms.
You have to address the cause inorder to get rid of a problem.
Doesn't that make sense to you?
You must make the enviroment (your body) suitable to keep that cell happy and healthy. If you don't have a good enviroment to keep your cells healthy they will surely make you prone to developing one or more of the 150 degenerative diseases and even cancer.
We know diseases such as cancer cannot thrive in an oxygenated, acid free enviroment. This technique is used when cancer researchers want to speedup or slow down cancer growth in the labratory.
The fact is that the sicker the patient, the more acidic the body fluids become. So it stands to reason that if you raise your pH (potential of Hydrogen), you will be creating an enviroment that diseases such as cancer and degenerative diseases cannot thrive.
Healthy tissues are alkaline, whereas cancerous tissues are acidic.
Our bodies are alkaline by design and acid by function.
Therefore maintaining alkalinity is essential for vitality and a healthy life.
This cannot be said enough, "Acidity is the fertile soil for parasites (Candida, etc.) and degenerative diseases in the human body including cancer".
If we can keep our body fluid pH around 7 to 7.3 we would have an acid free, oxygenated healthy enviroment.
To understand why some tissues in the body are deficient in oxygen and therefore prone to cancer and degenerative diseases, it is helpful to understand the nature of acidity and alkalinity.
In chemistry, we know that water (H2O) decomposes into H+ and OH-.
When a solution contains more H+ than OH- then it is said to be acid.
When it contains more OH- than H+ then it is said to be alkaline.
When oxygen enters an acid solution it can combine with H+ ions to form water. Thus oxygen helps to neutralize the acid.
When this takes place inside our bodies, the acid uses up the neutralizing oxygen thus preventing it from reaching the tissues that need it.
As a result, acidic tissues are devoid of free oxygen.
An alkaline solution is just the reverse. Two hydroxyl ions (OH-) can combine to produce one water molecule and one oxygen atom. In other words, an alkaline solution can provide free oxygen to the tissues.
Chemists measure acidity and alkalinity with a pH scale ranging from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Below 7 is acid and above 7 is alkaline. Blood must always remain at an alkaline pH 7.4 so that it can retain its oxygen. With the exception of stomach fluids which must remain acidic to digest food and urine which must remain acidic to remove wastes from the body, human body fluids such as blood, lymph and cerebral spinal fluid are designed to be slightly alkaline at a pH of 7.4.
If your body fluid pH is 7.5, your body fluids are in the healthy range, meaning that, for the moment at least, you are not mineral deficient.
If your pH is between 6.0 and 6.5, you are becoming acidic and therefore developing one or more of the 150 degenerative diseases.
If your pH is below 6.0, then you are highly acidic, very mineral deficient, and may have contracted at least one degenerative disease.
Alkalinity is anabolic (builds up) and acidity is catabolic (tears down). In other words, as each of our cells perform their task of respiration, they secrete metabolic wastes which are acidic. These wastes are the end product of cellular metabolism and must not be allowed to build up. The body goes to great lengths to neutralize and detoxify these acids before they are in a position to act as poisons in and around the cell, changing the environment of the cell. If our bodies become acidic by dropping below pH 7.0, oxygen is driven out thereby, according to Nobel Prize winner Otto Warburg, inducing cancer.
Most of us have healthy, alkaline body fluids as children, but as we reach our thirties and beyond, more minerals leave our bodies than we ingest. It is this loss of minerals that causes our bodies to become increasingly acidic.
When adequate mineral consumption is in the diet, the blood is supplied the crucial minerals required to maintain an alkaline pH of 7.4.
However when insufficient mineral consumption is in the diet, the body is forced to rob Peter (other body fluids and organs) to pay Paul (the blood).
In doing so, it removes crucial minerals, such as calcium from the saliva, spinal fluids, kidneys, liver, teeth, etc., in order to maintain the blood at pH 7.4. This causes the demineralized fluids and organs to become acidic and therefore anaerobic, thus inducing not only cancer, but a host of other degenerative diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, lupus, etc..
Everyone knows that the human body is made up of 78% water by weight, and that water is hydrogen and oxygen gases. When nitrogen gas and carbon in the form of carbon dioxide and methane gases are added, the total gas in the body by weight becomes over 95%. Almost half of the remaining 5% that makes up the human body and controls all biological functions is the mineral calcium.
Acidity and sugar craving
One other thing you will find of interest. Another reason for your sugar craving, besides the Candida parasite, comes from the body being too acidic. Try it yourself and see. Test your pH with litmus paper when the cravings are strong. Test your pH again and when you have balance, watch your sugar cravings go down or go away altogether.
A Few Ways to Restore Acid/Alkaline Balance in Your Body:
The general "rule of thumb" is to eat 20% acid foods and 80% alkaline foods. Avoid the "strongly acid" foods.
Strongly Acid: meat, fish, soft drinks
Mild Acid: grains, legumes, nuts
Mild Alkaline: fruits, vegetables, berries, dairy
Strongly Alkaline: green leafy vegetables, brocoli, spinach
Supplement your diet with alkaline minerals such as cesium, rubidium and potassium . These have been found in studys done by Dr. Brewer and have been found to be effective in fighting cancer.
Dr. Gerson, founder of the Gerson cancer therapy, author of "A Cancer Therapy: Results of Fifty Cases and the Cure of Advanced Cancer" (page 246) gave his patients a 10% potassium solution. Potassium tablets are commonly available. Potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3) can be used as a substitute for sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) when baking. You might try mixing a teaspoon of potassium bicarbonate with water and drinking it before going to bed each evening.
Supplement your diet with freshly made fruit and vegetable juices as a treatment for cancer. The recommendation is one 8 oz glass per hour for every waking hour of the day. We could never eat the amount of nutrition we drink with these juices.
Learn Trancendental Meditation or get a hobby that takes your mind away from things because it is a way to increase the alkalinity of your body. Trancendental Meditation gives a level of rest twice as deep as that of sleep and is an effective antidote to stress. Stress is insidious to cancer because it affects us 24 hours each day. Stress causes the heart to beat too fast, the muscles to be too tense, the entire metabolism to be too fast.
Taking Coral Calcium from Okinawa, Japan supplies calcium plus 72 trace minerals to help raise your pH. Sea Salt also has over 50 trace minerals to help with your acid/alkalinity balance, so if you must eat salt, it might as well be doing some good for you.
