When you consume foods, they will either cause your body to become more acidic or alkaline. When your body becomes acidic, then the oxygen in your body starts to diminish. On the contrary when your body becomes more alkaline, the oxygen throughout your body is increased.
When your body is alkaline, you will find yourself healing from cuts and scratches, bruises and other noticeable issues over night. When your body is heavily acidic, you will find that it can sometimes take days or even weeks for these minor issues to resolve themselves.
If your cells lose more than 65% oxygen, meaning that your cell has 35% or less oxygen, it will become cancerous. And, if your cells regain that oxygen, your cells will repair themselves and the cancer will go away.
If you have cancer, and you are treating the cancer specifically, you are essentially not helping yourself because cancer is only the symptom of a problem, it is what you should use to recognize a different issue. You're simply too acidic.
If you would like to know more about this specifically, you can learn about DR. Otto Warburg, who in 1931 won a nobel prize for his cancer discovery.
An excellent quote by him says as follows: "No disease including cancer, can exist in an alkaline environment."
Here is a useful chart
The chart is way off for the claim that 'Distilled Water' and 'Reverse Osmosis Water' has a pH of 4.
That's about 100x more acidic than these types of water will get in the worst case scenario (after a bit of carbonic acid is produced in the presence of carbon dioxide).
I presume this chart comes from someone trying to sell a water treatment system of some sort (with false claims).
Reverse Osmosis water is very acidic.
Thank you for the chart!
How are lemons and limes alkaline? Citric ACID? Am I grossly mistaken?
Stomach acid. Is acid. How does any variance in your pH intake change your body's pH level if everything goes to the stomach?
Acidity and alkalinity are on opposite sides of the pH scale and can be influenced by adding a little of the opposite via cancellation. If you have ever had heartburn and eaten an antacid like tums you've changed the pH of your stomach by adding an alkaline substance. A little bit goes a long way.
I understand the pH scale. If you add alkaline foods/drinks, it should either: lower your stomach acidity temporarily interrupting your digestion, or your stomach & gallbladder responds by increasing stomach acids. Since there is no concern for interrupting digestion, then that means 2nd option is what is going on.
If your stomach autocorrects it's acidity, then how can alkaline foods make a meaningful difference on your body?
I genuinely want to know if there is any validity to alkaline body stuff - everything I have seen so far seems like snake oil
It's always difficult to determine where people's knowledge base is, so no offense intended if I came across wrong with too much crayon.
As for body pH, as I understand it, our bodies will always try to auto correct and self regulate to a neutral state or be slightly alkaline. Around 7.0-7.4 pH if I recall. Balancing pH within the body is more a constant maintenance process starting with our diet. Both alkaline and acidic foods have their place in maintaining that balance and have a chain link style effect. If most of your diet consists of mostly acidic or mostly alkaline foods, your body will try to constantly correct itself the opposite direction causing imbalance, forcing it to work overtime to correct itself. All vitamins, minerals, micro and macro nutrients require specific pH ranges to be absorbed optimally into our cells. Deficiencies arise from improper pH, bad diet, processed foods with added vitamins or minerals to compensate for what processing them stripped out. Many times the added or supplemented vitamins and minerals are in a form that our bodies can't process effectively anyway. Just an example: bleaching flour with bromine, then adding vitamins A and D to milk to compensate to prevent Ricketts. Nutrients have to be chained together, vitamin A to absorb vitamins D and B. D and B to absorb C and K, magnesium and phosphorus to absorb calcium.. You have to have proper pH for any of that to function correctly. Just like a plant, when dealing with NPK ratios and pH, except we don't balance out soil/water/nutrient pH for optimisation, instead it is water/gut and cellular pH which still completes the process of ionic bonding within our bodies. Not sure if this helps or not.
Actually blood plasma is very specific at 7.35 to 7.45 with a bufferng system to keep it in range.
Glad to see my memory hasn't completely turned tail and split the opposite direction! 😆
Here is a chart I find interesting about food cravings and what they actually mean. https://natureworksbest.com/naturopathy-works/food-cravings/
I take a tsp of baking soda in an 8 Oz glass of water, when I'm having problems with indigestion or heartburn. Some people drink vinegar water, but that further aggravates the problem for other things like yeast infections. You can either restore the balance in your body, or you can essentially cure a hangover with more alcohol. Throwing more bullshit to more bullshit leaves you a bigger and smellier problem as a result.
From what I understand, heartburn is either too much stomach acid or not enough. When I get heartburn, I take a shot of organic apple cider vinegar and it goes away. This is after taking an antacid at nighttime for years because it really bothered me when I was sleeping. One shot of vinegar and it wouldn’t bother me for months at a time. So, clearly, my own personal experience is that my stomach was experiencing not enough stomach acid.
Just ordered a hyperbaric chamber
Black strap molasses with gum turpentine (NOT the paint stripper turpentine)
Black seed oil with honey 3 times a day on an empty stomach.
Black strap molasses and baking soda as I remember reading. Cancer loves sugar so the molasses carries the baking soda to the cancer. pH strips to monitor urine alkalinity so you can vary the dose of soda to keep your body around 8.8 to 9.0 pH. This isn't medical advice though, so remember to research what works for you.
Thanks, You could be right about this.
Dr. Sebi was preaching the same exact thing, alkalinity. Everything is tied to the PH of your body. He cured people of all kinds of stuff including cancer, HIV/AIDS and other STD's. He was taken to federal court, brought dozens of patients that he helped cure to testify, and WON. Now that he has passed, his name is being dragged through the dirt.
