This is where I started, there are some Mayo Clinic articles I liked too. Cancer thrives in an acidic environment… make your body alkaline and it should be immune to cancer.
This article reviews supporting evidence in the literature that has shown that consumption of abundant alkaline-forming foods can result in improvement in bone mineral density (BMD) and muscle mass, protection from chronic illnesses, reduced tumor-cell invasion and metastasis, and effective excretion of toxins from the body.
In addition, a large number of studies showing the benefits of alkaline water (mineral water) have revealed that people consuming water with a high level of total dissolved solids (TDS)(ie, with a high mineral content) have shown a lower incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and cancer and lower total mortality rates.
Consumption of alkaline water also may prevent osteoporosis and protect pancreatic beta cells with its antioxidant effects. In addition, this article discusses the literature that shows that reducing digestive-tract bacterial load can play an important role in increasing blood alkalinity toward the normal upper limit.
Great post. Would you post some links on ph tests and changing to a more alkaline diet. I've never heard of that. Thanks.

Alkaline diets can help alleviate a vast array of health issues.
And an easy way to “alkalize” your water is adding lemon juice.
Even though lemon is acidic, your body becomes more alkaline processing it.
i think you can add baking soda to it too - though not as tasty as lemon. i also add iodine to my water once a day just a few drops helps with stuff
