Why Should You Use Higher pH

Earlier we referenced chicken heart tissue kept alive for 28 years. A similar experiment on live human cells was conducted with less precise measures than was conducted on the chicken heart tissue. The live human cells were not given a solution to keep the cells alive indefinately and the solution not meticulously changed. These human cells stopped dividing after a while and died. That allowed the researchers to conclude that there is a natural death hormone or gene and also that nothing can be done to prolong life. The normal lifespan of a chicken is 7 to 8 years. Carrell was able to extend the life of the chicken tissue 4 times it's normal life. Would the same be true of the human tissue had the solution been meticulously changed maintaining an alkaline environment, instead of allowing it to become a "fetid swamp," as observed by one of the scientific researchers.

Felicia Drury Kliment, an adjunct professor at City College in New York who wrote, "The Acid Alkaline Balance Diet," believes that the above mentioned experiment demonstrates that "Carrell's more meticulous experiment gives the lie to this fatalistic attitude, and inspired the hope that human life can be extended well beyond its current limits." pg. 3

The liver, kidneys, lymph system, and lungs are the bodies detoxifying organs and they cannot eliminate chemical preservatives, pesticides, or artificial flavor enhancers. Chemical wastes end up being calcified along our skeletal bones. Some acidic wastes are just too large to be eliminated and end up scratching and creating bumps on the insides of arteries and veins, and are bandaged over with cholesterol, triglycerides, calcium and other wastes. Sometimes these fatty plaques are dislodged from the vein or artery walls and travel through the blood stream to the brain causing a stroke, raise blood pressure, contribute to creating a heart attack.

Alkalizing the body can reduce high blood pressure, allowing arteries to open for better arterial blood flow, reduce the acidic waste build up and possibly remove fatty plaques in veins and arteries.

Thickened, coagulated blood created by acidic waste does not allow nutrients, and oxygen to get to the bodies organs and this contributes to the organ's degeneration before it's time. Overtime if the acidic environment is not eliminated, tissues become malignant (cancerous). Cancer cells thrive in an acidic environment. Cancer cells die in an alkaline environment. Cancer gets it energy from acidic fermentation due to oxygen deprivation and the cancer grows as it reaches for nutrients depriving the organs.

Cancer prevention can be assisted when the body is in an alkaline state. For those who have experienced chemotherapy, one woman allowed herself to throw up whenever she needed to. The body needs to throw up to expel acid. She never took anti-nausea medication. I always wondered why people going through chemotherapy seemed to die 6 months after the chemotherapy ended. Perhaps it is because they kept the acid inside of their body, instead of allowing it to be expelled. Had she known about the alkaline cleaning minerals of Potassium, Calcium, Sodium, Magnesium which reduce hyperacidity of the bodies organs, she could have used them to assist her body to expell the excess acids created by the chemotherapy.

The Milk Calcium Myth

Vitamin A and D and magnesium are needed for the body to be able to absorb calcium. For bones to rebuild there are at least 18 essential nutrients necessary. Usually dairy products do not contain enough magnesium for the body to absorb the calcium that is in the dairy product.

The North American Myth regarding Calcium

Contrary to all of the push to get more calcium, North Americans have a tendency toward consuming too much sodium, usually from canned and processed foods, and too much calcium, and too little potassium and magnesium. These results are from urine tests demonstrating that calcium and sodium are excreted in the urine because of taking in these elements in overabundance, with potassium and magnesium being retained. It would be much better to consume a variety of alkaline minerals which allows the body to choose what it needs, rather than simply consuming an abundance of calcium, which your body may not need.
