I Ate Too Much Sugar Disease!

Here are five non-contagious Holiday Season lifestyle and dietary conditions (called diseases by allopathic medicine) for which I have given new names:

1) "I ate too much sugar disease" is caused by children who ingest too much acidic sugarary treats the night of Halloween and/or the day after. Some of the symptoms including, belching, throwing up, constipation, stomach ache, headache, aches and pains throughout the body, light headedness, dizziness, cold hands, cold feet, and even loss of consciousness. If the child continues to ingest acidic Halloween treats through out the week this may lead to more serious conditions or symptoms, such as ADD, ADHD, leukemia, lymphatic congestion, coma or even lymphatic cancer. The best way to treat "I ate too much sugar disease" is to stop eating the acid sugar and start alkalizing the body to re-establish its alkaline design. This will then lead to restored health and energy.

2) "Traveler's Acidic Consequence" is a result of the sum total consumption and behaviors of a traveler during their more unusual or somewhat different
from normal lifestyle than when they were not traveling.
A typical traveler's day will upset one's normal
metabolism and digestive habits. They eat and
drink different foods at different times and different volumes than usual, which creates an over-acidic state and a need for more alkaline buffers (sodium bicarbonate) leading to indigestion, nausea, acid reflux, heartburn, belching, flatulence, vomiting, constipation, dehydration and further problems of acidity,
depending on the degree of irregularity.

"Traveler's Acidic Consequence" is commonly blamed by allopathic medical science on a particular site on
the traveler's path as if he or she caught something.
This current medical ideology is based on
Pasteur's germ theory and is a scientific myth or illusion.

The true cause of this condition is the result of the traveler's acidic dietary choices and the lack of alkaline hydration, nutrition and hygiene that can result in this over-acidic condition. All the above symptoms are the body in preservation mode trying its best to maintain the alkaline pH of the internal environment at 7.365 to 7.4.

3) Holiday Season - "I Ate and Drank Too Much Sugar Dis-Ease"
is a result of the sum total consumption and behaviors of a person during the Holiday season eating and drinking everything in site from "swine to wine." This over indulgence may cause belching and flatulence and eventual heart burn, acid reflux, nausea and constipation for which medical science will often prescribe the purple pill. This Holiday Season condition, beginning with Halloween may then lead to the third Holiday Season consequence -

4) "Holiday Season Food Drunk" is a result of over-eating and over-drinking acidic foods and liquids and then falling into a drunken state on the sofa or bed for several hours or even days to sleep off all the acidity. Falling asleep after a heavy Holiday meal is a common occurrence for over-eaters and drinkers.

5) "Holiday Season Influenza" (The Flu) is a result of the sum total consumption and behaviors of a person during a so-called Holiday acidic feasting. They will consume acidic foods and drinks that they may not know or know that are not healthy or alkalizing, i.e., more sugar or sugar substitutes than normal, alcohol, meats and much of this at greater volumes than normal. They become detrimentally influenced physically and emotionally by Holiday acidic foods and drinks.

According to medical savants, "Holiday Season Influenza"
is commonly blamed on a particular virus contracted from another person(s) and not from acidic lifestyle and dietary choices of that person. Like the acidic traveler, a person chooses to consume on their own as many acidic foods and drinks during the Holiday Season and as a result are suffering from the consequences of their poor dietary choices -- not from some phantom flu virus! The flu is nothing more than the body increasing temperature to improve circulation to remove excess acidity from over-acidic lifestyle and dietary choices, through perspiration, respiration, defecation and urination.

Also, please keep in mind it doesn't take either traveling or Holidays for someone to express the symptoms of "I Ate Too Much Sugar Disease," "Traveler's
Acidic Consequence" and/or "Holiday Season Influenza."
All you need to do is consume excessive amounts of acidic meats, chocolate, ice cream, cake, candies, alcohol or other acidic thrillers. This can also happen anytime
of the year.

This Holiday Season may you resolve not to succumb to the acidic choices that lead to "Traveler's Acidic Consequence," "I Ate and Drank Too Much Sugar Dis-ease," "Holiday Season Food Drunk" and/or "Holiday Season Influenza."

I hope one day we can learn to take responsibility for our own lifestyle and dietary choices and the consequences we experience rather then blame it or transfer personal responsibility to a phantom or harmless virus - like the flu virus, ebola virus, HIV virus, HPV virus, West Nile virus, Bird flu virus, and the list goes on and on and on!

Balancing Your Body by Understanding Alkaline and Acid Forming Foods

Foods are generally categorized as acid or alkaline based on the residue they leave in the human body after they have been metabolized. Often there are fad diets that recommend people eat either all acid or all alkaline foods to solve one disease or another. In reality, it is probably healthier to strive for a balanced middle ground of alkaline and acidic foods. A variety of health problems can occur when the body is either too alkaline or acidic. When the body fluids become too acidic, a condition called acidosis develops. Conversely, when the body fluids become too alkaline, alkalosis results. Continue Reading >>

The Truth About Weight Gain and Weight Loss

The U.S. SURGEON GENERAL REPORTS:

"Obesity is now the number one reversible cause of death in the United States."

Discover the missing link to weight loss and KEEPING IT OFF!

The pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet is the "New Biology" that is giving people a unique system that has never been available before.

THE RESULTS ARE IMMEDIATE AND REAL.

Obesity has become such an epidemic that for the first time in recent history researchers are predicting that children may have a shorter lifespan than adults.

* In the United States alone, more than 64% of adults are overweight or obese.

* Nearly 30% of Americans have 20 or more pounds to lose.

* Nearly one third of American children under 18 are overweight.

* Nine million people in the United States have more than 100 pounds to lose.

The Acid Botox May Lead To Nuerological Dis-Ease

The toxic acid Botox, the popular treatment to counter facial wrinkles, can move from the face to the brain.
A study published in the Journal of Neuroscience found that the active acidic ingredient in Botox -- botulinum acid toxin -- moved into the brainstem brain of rats within three days of injection.

Remnants of this acidic poison also moved from the hippocampus on one side of the brain that controls spatial navigation and long-term memory, to the hippocampus on the opposite side of the brain.
Researchers also found that the toxic acid Botox remnants in areas connected with hand-eye coordination.
The effects were still present six months later.

"The idea that there could be some transmission of this to the central nervous system needs to be followed up," said Matthew Avram, director of Massachusetts General Hospital's Dermatology, Laser and Cosmetology Center.

The acidic toxic Botox has been used to smooth facial wrinkles and to treat other health problems since it was approved for use in 1989. Sales topped $1.2 billion worldwide in 2007.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at The pH Miracle Living Center, states, "Botox is the acidic urine or exotoxin from a bacteria. The idea of injecting an acidic poison from bacteria into the body tissues is unbelievable to me and may be a contributing factor for neurological dis-ease such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, seizures, and sclerosis. Any acid, including the acid Botox could potentially turn ones brain into swiss cheese and should be avoided at all cost.

A more natural and healthful way to reduce or eliminate wrinkles is to alkalize, energize and hydrate the skin with and alkaline lifestyle and diet. The skin is a product of the blood and the blood is a product of the lifestyle and diet. When you have healthy blood you will have healthy skin and the best way to have healthy blood is to have an alkaline lifestyle and diet."

Lifestyle and Dietary Acids Cause Heartburn, GERD, Barrett's, and Esophageal Cancer

Over the past two decades, esophageal cancer has risen six-fold. About 16,470 Americans will be diagnosed with esophageal cancer this year, according to the American Cancer Society. Fewer than one in five survives five years with the current medical treatment of chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.

The following are excerpts from an article by Lauran Neegaard of the Associated Press and Dr. Robert O. Young, of the pH Miracle Living Center.

"Chronic heartburn is a daily acid bath for the esophagus, and complications from it are on the rise."

"The reason that chronic heartburn is on the rise is because of the chronic ingestion of acidic foods and drinks, including dairy, meat, high sugar fruits and grains. When we have a highly acidic diet this causes the stomach to produce a high amount of sodium bicarbonate to buffer the excess dietary acid. This increase of sodium bicarbonate to alkalize the ingestion of an highly acidic meal creates an equal amount of a very strong acid called hydrochloric acid. This is the acid that causes acid reflux and the eventual esophageal cancer," states Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center.

According to Lauran Neeraard, "more doctors are trying to zap away the worst damage, beaming radiofrequency energy down the throat to burn off precancerous cells."

According to Dr. Young, "current medical savants do not understand that the cause of cancer is a liquid acid from diet and metabolism. Zapping pre-cancerous or cancerous cells with radiation is focused on the effects of acid and not the cause of the cancer - what you are eating, drinking and thinking.
This is why esophageal cancers are so deadly when treated by current medical ideology. The oncologists and the radiologists are focused on the effects of the acidic diet and lifestyle rather then the the acid lifestyle and diet that is fermenting and degenerating body cells. The focus has to be on the acid from lifestyle and diet, not the body cell if one is going to have any success with reversing or curing a cancerous condition, like esophageal cancer.

I have found that the simple approach to buffering lifestyle, dietary and metabolic acids, which are the true causes of all cancers in the human or animal body, is to hyper-alkalize the tissues of the body with bicarbonate of mineral salts."

Lauran Neegaard, also states, "heartburn sometimes is a temporary problem, but it also can signal gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD), where a loose valve allows stomach acid to regularly back up into the delicate esophagus. Millions have GERD, which is on the rise along with expanding waist lines."

"Severe reflux over many years can cause serious problems for a fraction of people. The lining of the esophagus erodes until it bleeds, narrows to make swallowing difficult or. worse, starts to repair itself with more acid-resistant intestinal cells that happen to be more cancer-prone. That last condition is called Barrett's esophagus, and suffers are 30 times more likely than the average person to go on to develop esophageal cancer."

According to Dr. Young. "all cancerous conditions are the effects of lifestyle, dietary and metabolic acids that can be prevented by making alkaline lifestyle and dietary choices. The key to completely reversing or curing a cancerous condition is found in its prevention. If you have been diagnosed with a cancerous condition then the best advise in dealing with this acidic condition is to hyper-alkalize the tissues with alkaline mineral salts, such as sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium bicarbonate. My research indicates that hyper-alkalizing is one of the most powerful ways of buffering the acids that cause ALL cancerous conditions."

"When dealing with heartburn which is stage 2 acidosis, or Gerd, which is stage 4 acidosis, Barrett's condition, which is stage 5 acidosis, or esophageal cancer which is stage 7 acidosis, the treatment is always the same - alkalize the blood and tissues with an alkaline lifestyle and diet. It is the only way to restore health and energy to the body,"
states Dr. Young.

The Medical Diagnosis of Disease Is An Illusion

Disease or should we say Dis-ease names like cancer, diabetes and osteoporosis are misleading and misinform patients about dis-ease prevention.

There is a curious tendency in conventional medicine to name a set of symptoms a disease. I was recently at a compounding pharmacy having my bone mineral density measured to update my health stats. I spotted a poster touting a new drug for osteoporosis.

It was written by a drug company and it said exactly this: 'Osteoporosis is a disease that causes weak and fragile bones.' Then, the poster went on to say that you need a particular drug to counteract this 'disease.'

Yet the language is all backwards. Osteoporosis isn't a disease that causes weak bones, osteoporosis is the name given to a diagnosis of weak bones. In other words, the weak bones are the result of excess acidity, and then the diagnosis of osteoporosis followed.

The drug poster makes it sound like osteoporosis strikes first, and then you get weak bones. The cause and effect is all backwards. And that's how drug companies want people to think about diseases and symptoms: first you 'get' the dis-ease, and then you are 'diagnosed' just in time to take a new drug for the rest of your life.

But it's all an illuision. There is no such disease as osteoporosis. It's just a made-up name given to a pattern of symptoms that indicates you are over-acid which causes your bones to become fragile.

As another example, when a person follows an unhealthy lifestyle that results in a symptom such as high blood pressure, that symptom is actually being assumed to be a disease all by itself and it will be given a disease name.
What disease? The dis-ease is, of course, 'hypertension' or 'high blood pressure.'
Doctors throw this phrase around as if it were an actual dis-ease and not merely descriptive of patient physiology.

This may all seem silly, right? But there's actually a very important point to all this.

When we look at symptoms and give them disease names, we automatically distort the selection of available treatments for such a dis-ease.
If the dis-ease is, by itself, hypercholesterolemia or high cholesterol, then the cure for the dis-ease must be nothing other than lowering the high cholesterol. And that's how we end up with all these pharmaceuticals treating high cholesterol in order to 'prevent' this dis-ease and lower the levels of LDL cholesterol in the human patient.

By lowering only the cholesterol, the doctor can rest assured that he is, in fact, treating this 'disease,' since the definition of this 'disease'
is hypercholesterolemia or high cholesterol and nothing else.

But there is a fatal flaw in this approach to disease treatment: the symptom is not the cause of the dis-ease. There is another cause, and this deeper cause is routinely ignored by conventional medicine, doctors, drug companies, and even patients.

Let's take a closer look at hypertension or high blood pressure. What actually causes high blood pressure? Many doctors would say high blood pressure is caused by a specific, measurable interaction between circulating chemicals in the human body. Thus, the ill-behaved chemical compounds are the cause of the high blood pressure, and therefore the solution is to regulate these chemicals. That's exactly what pharmaceuticals do -- they attempt to manipulate the chemicals in the body to adjust the symptoms of high blood pressure. Thus, they only treat the symptoms, not the root cause.

Or take a look at high cholesterol. The conventional medicine approach says that high cholesterol is caused by a chemical imbalance in the liver, which is the organ that produces cholesterol. Thus the treatment for high cholesterol is a prescription drug that inhibits the liver's production of cholesterol (statin drugs). Upon taking these drugs, the high cholesterol (the 'disease') is regulated, but what was causing the liver to overproduce cholesterol in the first place?
That causative factor remains ignored.

The root cause of high cholesterol, as it turns out, is primarily an over acidic lifestyle and diet. A person lives an acidic life or who eats foods that are acidic will inevitably cause the body to go into preservation mode and produce more cholesterol to neutralize the excess acid thus showing the symptoms of this so-called dis-ease of high cholesterol. Its simple cause and effect.
Eat the wrong foods and don't exercise, and you'll produce too much acid which will cause the body to release cholesterol from the liver to bind up that acid which can be detected and diagnosed by conventional medical procedures. You see it is not the cholesterol that is bad it is the acid producing food we eat and the lack of exercise that is bad. Reduce the acid producing foods like beef, chicken, pork, dairy, coffee, tea, soda pops, etc., and start exercising every day and you will reduce the protective cholesterol that is saving your life from acids that are not being elimnated from an acidic lifestyle and diet.

Yet the root cause of all this is actually poor lifestyle and food choice, not some bizarre behavior by the liver. If the disease were to be accurately named, then, it would be called Acidic Lifestyle and Food Choice Dis-Ease, or simply ALFCD.

ALFCD would be a far more accurate name that would make sense to people. If it's an acidic lifestyle and foods choice dis-ease, then it seems that the obvious solution to the dis-ease would be to choose a lifestyle and foods that aren't so acidic. Of course that may be a bit of simplification since you have to distinguish between healthy alkaline lifestyles and foods and unhealthy acidic lifestyle and foods. But at least the name ALFCD gives clients or patients a better idea of what's actually going on rather than naming the dis-ease after a symptom, such as high cholesterol. You see, the symptom is not the dis-ease, but conventional medicine insists on calling the symptom the dis-ease because that way it can treat the symptom and claim success without actually addressing the underlying cause, which remains a mystery to modern medicine.

But let's move on to some other dis-eases so you get a clearer picture of how this actually works.
Another dis-ease that's caused by poor lifestyle and acidic food choice is diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is the natural physiological and metabolic result of a person consuming refined carbohydrates and added sugars in large quantities, undigested proteins from beef, chicken, and pork without engaging in regular physical exercise that would compensate for such dietary practices.

The name 'diabetes' is meaningless to the average person. The disease should be called Excessive Acid Dis-Ease, or EAD. If it were called Excessive Acid Dis-ease, the solution to it would be rather apparent; simply eat less sugar, eliminate all animal proteins, eggs, dairy, drink fewer soft drinks, exercise and so on. But of course that would be far too simple for the medical community, so the dis-ease must be given a complex name such as diabetes that puts its solution out of reach of the average patient.

Another dis-ease that is named after its symptom is cancer. In fact, to this day, most doctors and many patients still believe that cancer is a physical
thing: a tumor. In reality, a tumor is the solution of cancer, not its cause. A tumor is simply a physical manifestation of bound up acidic cells so they do not spoil other healthy cells. The tumor is the solution to cells damaged by acids not the problem. The truth is cancer is not a cell but an acidic liquid. When a person 'has cancer,' what they really have is cancerous tissues or latent tissue acidosis. They are absorbing their own acidic urine. It would be a far better named for the dis-ease: Cancerous Tisssue Dis-Ease(CTD) or Latent Tissue Acidosis or LTA.

If cancer were actually called Latent Tissue Acidosis, it would seem ridiculous to try to cure cancer by cutting out tumors through surgery and by destroying the immune system with chemotherapy. And yet these are precisely the most popular treatments for cancer offered by conventional medicine. These treatments do absolutely nothing to support the patient's immune system and prevent the build up of acids in the tissues. That's exactly why most people who undergo chemotherapy or the removal of tumors through surgical procedures end up with yet more cancer a few months or a few years later. It's also another reason why survival rates of cancer have barely budged over the last twenty years. (In other words, conventional medicine's treatments for cancer simply don't work.) The main reason is current medical science wrongly perceives cancer as a cell when in reality cancer is an acidic liquid, like lactic acid.

This whole situation stems from the fact that the dis-ease is misnamed. It isn't cancer, it isn't a tumor and it certainly isn't a dis-ease caused by having too strong of an immune system that needs to be destroyed through chemotherapy. It is simply latent tissue acidosis. And if it were called latent tissue acidosis dis-ease or urine in the tissues dis-ease, the effective treatment for cancer would be apparent.

The kidneys are responsible for eliminating acids out of the blood and recycling alkalinity back into the blood. When we have an over-acidic lifestyle and diet this puts stress on the kidneys which can cause them to breakdown. The result is kidney dis-ease caused by circulatory acids. If acids are not eliminated out of the blood they will then be thrown out into the tissues leading to latent tissue acidosis and eventual cancerous tissue. Medical science uses dialysis to purify the blood from acidity and prevent latent tissue acidosis. If one will stop their acidic lifestyle and diet and begin to alkalize the blood and tissues this will support the kidneys and prevent kidney disease and the need for dialysis.

There are many other dis-eases that are given misleading names by western medicine. But if you look around the world and take a look at how dis-eases are named elsewhere, you will find many countries have dis-ease names that actually make sense.

For example, in Chinese medicine, Alzheimer's dis-ease is given a name that means, when translated, 'feeble mind disease.' In Chinese medicine, the name of the dis-ease more accurately describes the actual cause of the dis-ease which is caused by acids or urine on the brain, whereas in western medicine, the name of the dis-ease seems to be intended to obscure the root cause of the dis-ease, thereby making all dis-eases sound far more complex and mysterious than they really are.

This is one way in which doctors and practitioners of western medicine keep medical treatments out of the reach of the average citizen. Because, by God, they sure don't want people thinking for themselves about the causes of dis-ease!

By creating a whole new vocabulary for medical conditions, they can speak their own secret language and make sure that people who aren't schooled in medicine don't understand what they're saying. That's a shame, because the treatments and cures for virtually all chronic dis-eases are actually quite simple and can be described in plain language, such as making different alkaline food choices, getting more natural sunlight, drinking more alkaline water, engaging in regular physical exercise, avoiding specific acidic foods, supplementing our diet with green foods and green drinks and alkalizing nutritional supplements and so on.

See, western medicine prefers to describe dis-eases in terms of chemistry. When you're depressed, you aren't suffering from a lack of natural sunlight; you are suffering from a 'brain chemistry imbalance' that can only be regulated, they claim, by ingesting toxic chemicals to alter your brain chemistry. When your bones are brittle, it's not acidic brittle bones dis-ease; it's called osteoporosis, something that sounds very technical and complicated. And to treat it, western doctors and physicians will give you prescriptions for expensive drugs that somehow claim to make your bones less brittle. But in fact, the real treatment for this can be described in plain language once again: regular physical exercise, vitamin D supplementation, mineral supplements that include calcium and strontium, natural sunlight, and avoidance of acidic foods such as soft drinks, white flour and added sugars.

In fact, virtually every dis-ease that's prominent in modern society -- diabetes, cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, clinical depression, irritable bowel syndrome and so on -- can be easily described in plain language without using complex terms at all. These dis-eases are simply misnamed. And I believe that they are intentionally misnamed to put the jargon out of reach of everyday citizens. As a result, there's a great deal of arrogance in the language of western medicine, and this arrogance furthers the language of separation. Separation never results in healing. In order to effect healing, we must bring together the language of healers and patients using plain language that real people understand and that real people can act upon.

We need to start describing dis-eases in terms of their root causes, not in terms of their arcane, biochemical actions. When someone suffers from seasonal affective disorder or clinical depression, for example, let's call it what it is: Sunlight Deficiency Disorder. To treat it, the person simply needs to get more sunlight. This isn't rocket science, it's not complex, and it doesn't require a prescription.

If someone is suffering from osteoporosis, let's get realistic about the words we use to describe the condition: it's really Acidic Bones Dis-ease.
And it should be treated with things that will enhance bone density, such as nutrition, physical exercise and avoidance of acidic foods and drinks that strip away bone mass from the human body to neutralize the excess acids in the blood and tissues.

All of this information, of course, is rather shocking to old-school doctors and practitioners of western medicine, and the bigger their egos are, the more they hate the idea of naming dis-eases in plain language that patients can actually comprehend. That's because if the simple truths about dis-eases and their causes were known, health would be more readily available to everyday people, and that would lessen the importance of physicians and medical researchers.

There's a great deal of ego invested in the medical community, and they sure don't want to make sound health attainable to the average person without their expert advice. Many Doctors want to serve as the translators of 'truth' and will balk at any attempts to educate the public to either practice medicine on their own.

But in reality, health (and a connection with
spirit) is attainable by every single person.
Health is easy, it is straightforward, it is direct and, for the most part, it is available free of charge. A personal connection with our Creator is the same if we ask humbly in prayer for a relationship with Him, and guidance.

Don't believe the names of dis-eases given to you by your doctor. Those names are designed to obscure, not to inform. They are designed to separate you from self-healing, not to put you in touch with your own inner healer. And thus, they are nothing more than bad medicine masquerading as modern medical practice.

Does Salt Cause High Blood Pressure?

Both sea salt and rock salt were well known to the ancient Greeks who noted that eating salty food affected basic body functions such as digestion and excretion (urine and stools).
This led to salt being used medically. The healing methods of Hippocrates (460 BC) especially made frequent use of salt. Salt-based remedies were thought to have expectorant powers. A mixture of water and salt was employed as an emetic.

Drinking a mixture of two-thirds cow's milk and one-third salt-water, in the mornings, on an empty stomach was recommended as a cure for diseases of the spleen. A mixture of salt and honey was applied topically to clean bad ulcers and salt-water was used externally against skin diseases and freckles.

Hippocrates also mentions inhalation of steam from salt-water. We know today that the antiinflammatory effects of inhaled salt provide relief from respiratory symptoms (c).

Thus, 2000 years ago, Greek medicine had already discovered topical use of salt for skin lesions, drinking salty or mineralized waters for digestive troubles and inhaling salt for respiratory diseases!

The doctor and alchemist Paracelsus (1493-1541 A.D.) introduced an entirely new medical concept. He believed that external factors create disease and conceived a chemically oriented medical system which contrasted with the prevalent herbal medicine. Only salted food could be digested properly: 'The human being must have salt, he cannot be without salt. Where there is no salt, nothing will remain, but everything will tend to rot.'

He recommended salt water for the treatment of wounds and for use against intestinal worms. A hip-bath in salt water was a superb remedy for skin diseases and itching:
'This brine - he said - is better than all the health spas arising out of nature.' He described the diuretic effect of salt consumption and prescribed salt preparations of different strengths that were used for instance against constipation.

'In recent years there has been much publicity about the need to reduce salt consumption in societies where salt is added to many processed foods (Denton 1984, 584-7).

It has tended to be forgotten that some salt intake is absolutely necessary; that people need salt, sodium chloride, to survive: The chemical requirements of the human body demand that the salt concentration in the blood be kept constant. If the body does not get enough salt, a hormonal mechanism compensates by reducing the excretion of salt in the urine and sweat. But it cannot reduce this output to zero.

On a completely salt-free diet the body steadily loses small amounts of salt via the kidneys and sweat glands.
It then attempts to adjust this by accelerating its secretion of water, so that the blood's salt concentration can be maintained at the vital level.
The result is a gradual desiccation of the body and finally death.' Roy Moxham

An eight-year study of a New York City hypertensive population stratified for sodium intake levels found those on low-salt diets had more than four times as many heart attacks as those on normal-sodium diets - the exact opposite of what the 'salt hypothesis' would have predicted. (1995)

Dr. Jeffrey R. Cutler documented no health outcomes benefits of lower-sodium diets. Salt Institute

A past president of the American Heart Association, Dr. Suzanne Oparil of the University of Alabama- Birmingham, said her personal view is that the government may have been too quick to recommend that everyone cut back. 'Salt restriction as a solitary recommendation for the population for the prevention or the treatment of hypertension.

An abundance of the ingredients in unrefined real salt are as synonymous with life today as they were a billion years ago before single cells appeared here. Lack of them is synonymous with birth defects, organ failure, decay, diseases, premature aging and death at a young age.

The problem with salt is not the salt itself but the condition of the salt we eat - refined! Major producing companies dry their salt in huge kilns with temperatures reaching 1200 degrees F, changing he salt's chemical structure, which in turn adversely affects the human body.

The facts are that in the heating process of salt, the element sodium chloride goes off into the air as a gas. What remains is sodium hydroxate which is irritating to the system and does not satisfy the body's hunger and need for sodium chloride. Sodium and chloride are two of the 12 daily essential minerals.

In countries which do not alter their salt supply, heart disease and arthritis are so rare that many doctors have never seen a case. Their salt is dried from the ocean by the sun. Many people believe that salt is harmful to the human body.

The truth is we cannot live without sodium or chloride- salt. From salt the body makes sodium bicarbaonate which is one of the essential compounds for alkalizing the food we eat. Also, from salt the body makes iron for producing the hemoglobin of the red blood cell.

Cl + O <=> Mn + H <=> Fe or

chloride + Oxygen = Manganese + Hydrogen = Iron.

There is not enough natural salt in our foods, so we must supplement our diet. When salt is withheld, weakness and sickness follow.

Try this experiment: Mix a spoonful of salt in a glass of water and let it stand overnight. If the salt collects on the bottom of the glass, it has been processed.

NATURAL SALT DISSOLVES! Salt that will not dissolve in water cannot dissolve in your body. Any foreign substance that collects in the body organs and tissues will eventually result in malfunctioning of essential body processes: heart disease, arthritis, hardening of the body tissues and arteries, calcium deposits in the joints, etc. Natural organic salt (saline) will not cause calcification in your body. Real sea salt can dissolve damaging calcium deposits in the body.

Science and medicine have tried to define the precise roles of salt in the healthy and diseased human organism.
Blood, sweat, and tears all contain salt, and both the skin and the eyes are protected from metabolic acids from the effects of salt. When salt is added to a liquid, particles with opposite charges are formed: a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion.

This is the basis of osmosis which regulates fluid pressure within living cells and protects the body against excessive water loss (as in diarrhea or on heavy sweating).

Sodium and chloride ions, as well as potassium ions, create a measurable difference in potential across cell membranes. This ensures that the fluid inside living cells remains separate from that outside. Thus, although the human body consists mainly of water, our 'inner ocean'
does not flow away or evaporate. Sodium ions create a high pressure of liquid in the kidneys and thus regulate their metabolic function.

Water is extracted through the renal drainage system.
The body thus loses a minimal amount of essential alkaline water. Out of 1500 liters of blood which pass daily through the kidneys, only about 1.5 liters of liquid leave the body as urine.

Salt is 'fuel' for nerves. Streams of positively and negatively charged ions send impulses to nerve fibers.
A muscle cell will only contract if an impulse reaches it.
Nerve impulses are partly propelled by co-ordinated changes in charged particles.

Fish from the ocean will die quickly if placed in a solution of refined salt and water. The sodium chloride, in its form as it comes from the refinery, is actually poisonous to them. Bottom line, is that yes it can be harmful to consume too much refined salt, but you cannot consume too much natural unrefined liquid real salt.

In conclusion the question, "does salt cause high blood pressure?" The answer is absolutely NOT! High blood pressure is caused by dietary and metabolic acids that are not being properly eliminated through urination, defecation, perspiration and respiration. The truth is, you do not get high blood pressure you do high blood pressure with your lifestyle and dietary choices. Sodium chloride is the key to reducing and normalizing blood pressure and maintaining healthy pulse rate below 70 beats a minute.

The key to longevity is eating less protein or better still no animal protein -- and not just fewer calories and less acidity, as has previously been thought -- scientists have discovered.

"Animals that eat less live longer -- up to a point,"
says Professor Stephen Simpson of the University of Sydney's School of Biological Sciences. "Our research using animal models shows the balance of protein to carbohydrate in the diet is critical."

The idea that restricting food intake without malnutrition prolongs life has become a core belief in gerontology research, Professor Simpson says. "We know dietary restriction extends life in yeasts, fruit flies, worms, mice and monkeys, and it is widely held that the same affect should be true for humans."

But scientists couldn't be sure whether it was the restriction of calories in itself, or the restriction of specific nutrients, that affected aging. But now Professor Simpson and colleagues at Seoul University, Auckland University, UNSW and Macquarie have measured for the first time in any organism the relationship between diet, nutrient intake, lifespan and reproduction

Using new techniques developed by Professor Simpson and Professor David Raubenheimer (Auckland) the team showed in the fruit fly that calorie restriction is not responsible for extending lifespan: rather the balance of protein to carbohydrate in the diet was critical.

"Flies lived longest when the diet contained a low percentage of protein, and died sooner the more protein they consumed," says Professor Simpson.
"But protein is needed for reproduction -- so flies are faced with a conundrum: eat less protein and live longer, or eat more protein and lay more eggs?"

Professor Simpson said his team 'asked' the flies what they preferred. "When offered a choice, flies behaved like nutrient-seeking missiles, unerringly mixing a relatively high protein diet that maximized their lifetime egg production. In other words, flies preferred to achieve maximum evolutionary fitness rather than live as long as possible."

"In demonstrating the role protein plays in determining both lifespan and reproduction, my co-authors and I have united a body of apparently conflicting work within a common framework and provided a new platform for studying aging in all organisms," Professor Simpson said.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, has stated, "proteins are organizations of salt minerals, oxygen and water.
The primary element in the formation of protein is nitrogen and oxygen which gives rise to phosphorus in the creation of protein. The word equation is as follow:

Nitrogen + Oxygen <=> Phosphorus

Proteins can also been formed through the transformation of sulfur in the following word equation:

Sulfur - Hydrogen <=> Phosphorus

Sulfur (S) is the element of transition to form phosphorus (P). Sulfur (S) is a biological transformation of nascent oxygen (O1) and/or phosphorus (P).

O + O <=> S
S - H <=> P
F + O <=> P

"Sulfur (S) is found in glutathione and B vitamins essential in maintaining the alkaline design of the body."

"Sulfur (S) and Phosphorus (P) play an important role in bone formation, gray matter, in the envelopes of neurons and a constituent element of the nucleic acids."

"In the chain of DNA molecules a phosphoric group alternates with deoxyribose. Phosphorus is thus one of the constituents of deoxyribo-nucleic acid (DNA), which carries the hereditary genetic code."

"Sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P) are major elements of life and are linked in the relationship of life which allows nature to go from one to the other in case of a deficiency."

Dr. Young further states, "the best sources of phosphorus and sulfur are the green veggies, green fruits and mineral salts from the sea, like broccoli, avocado, green cabbage, sea vegetables, grasses and sea salt."

"One of the most important reasons for not eating protein and especially animal protein is to reduce the acid load on the body. Animal proteins produce toxic acidic residues of uric and nitric acid.
These acids from eating animal protein compromise the delicate pH balance of the body fluids and sets the stage for a variety of cancerous conditions," states Dr. Young.

"The best diet for longevity, health, energy, fitness and vitality is a diet that contains NO PROTEIN and has a high concentration of chlorophyll, healthy medium and long chain fats, alkaline water and all the mineral salts or at least the 12 inorganic cell or tissue salts," explains Dr. Young.

Dr. Young further states, "I call this way of eating and drinking the COWS plan. Which is an acronym that stands for:

C = chlorophyll
O = oil and oxygen
W = water that is clean and alkaline
S = salts that are whole and unprocessed."

Dr. Young is now offering a 4 ounce concentrated liquid chlorophyll from organically grown alfalfa for $19.95 a bottle. This concentrated liquid chlorophyll has no preservatives, no sugars, no alcohol added, like all other liquid chlorophyll products on the market today. It is a freshly juiced concentration of organic alfalfa that can be added to any alkaline water. It is also great for children. He currently offers in capsule in powder a concentration of green fruits and vegetables.

The Danger of Cell Phone Radiation

Calling all cell phone users!

There is evidence of a new risk of cancer from your mobile device.

A study, published in the American Journal of Epidemiology, found that those who held a handset to their ear for several hours a day (an average of 22 hours per month) were 50-percent more likely to develop a tumor in the parotid gland.

The parotid gland is the largest of the salivary glands. Historically, salivary gland cancer was a very rare occurrence.

However, the proximity of the glands to the phone has been of particular interest to scientists concerned about the radio-frequency radiation emitted from cell devices since their popularity soared over a decade ago.

As part of an international Interphone Study, Dr. Siegal Sadetzki, an epidemiologist at Tel Aviv University, lead a team to investigate nearly 500 people who had been diagnosed with salivary gland tumors. The data was compared to 1300 healthy subjects.

A significant part of the study is that it was conducted in Israel.

"Unlike people in other countries, Israelis were quick to adopt cell phone technology and have continued to be exceptionally heavy users,"
Sadetzki said. "Therefore, the amount of exposure to the radio frequency radiation found in this study has been higher than in previous cell phone studies."

That may mean that the Israeli test shows the results of cell phone use at an accelerated rate compared to other populations.

Sadetzki does note that more information is necessary to draw a definitive conclusion. However, she also cautions people to 'monitor their conversations' until the proof is in.

Children and young adults need to especially aware since they are seen to be more vulnerable to the effects of radiation. It has also been noted that rural users may have a higher risk since their mobile devices put off increased radiation to compensate for weaker signals.

Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, states, "the parotid gland is responsible for secreting sodium bicarbonate to alkalize the food and liquids ingested. When this gland is being radiated with cells phones the pH of the saliva before ingesting of food or drink and after ingesting of food or drink is highly compromised. When the food and drink is not alkalized by the alkaline secretions from the parotid gland this can lead to a cancerous condition. That is why I suggest maintaining mouth pH at 7.2 or greater. This can be done by drinking 4 grams of sodium bicarbonate in
8 ounces of 9.5 alkalized water. The additional benefits of drinking sodium bicarbonate water are as follows:

1) Increased pH of the extra-cellular body fluids.
2) Buffering of metabolic and dietary acids.
3) Protection against metabolic and dietary acids.
4) Buffering of HCL in the stomach that can cause nausea, ulcers and stomach cancer.
5) Alkalizing of the food chyme in the small intestine.
6) Support of the stomach in its production of sodium bicarbonate.
7) Helping to maintain the body's alkaline design and thus preventing sickness and dis-ease."

An Avocado A Day Will Keep The Doctor Away

Here at the Rancho del Sol in Sunny California we are now picking our organic avocados and shipping them fresh directly to your home. (Freshly picked avocados ripen in three to four weeks and last up to 3 months when refrigerated)

Our avocados are rich in nutrients, with vitamins A, B-complex, C, E, H, K and folic acid. They also contain the buffering minerals so critical in neutralizing excess acidity, magnesium, copper, iron, calcium, potassium and many other trace elements.

The Rancho del Sol Avocados are a perfect food in that they provide all of the essential amino acids -
18 aminos in all - plus 7 fatty acids, including omega 3 and 6. They also contain more protein than cow's milk (about 2 percent per edible portion).

The water content of our avocados ranges from 70 to 80 percent. This high water content makes these avocados a type of hydrating and energizing fuel for the body to burn, instead of a sugar-based fuel which leaves and acidic ash waste in your blood.

Avocados rank as the most easily digested rich source of fats and proteins in a whole food.

Approximately 63 percent of the fat contained in our avocados are monounsaturated and lonly 17 percent is saturated. Both types of these fats serve as food energy sources for our fuel rather than glucose or protein. The rest of the fat found in our avocados, about 20 percent are polyunsaturated and serve in cellular construction.

Scientific evidence from a May 1999 study conducted by the California Avocado Commission shows that nutrient-dense avocados contain 76 mg of beta- sitosterol per 100 grams of fruit. Beta-sitosterol is a plant sterol that occurs naturally in our avocados. Certain sterols can inhibit cholesterol absorption in the intestine and result in lower blood cholesterol levels. In animal studies, phytosterol has been shown to inhibit the growth of tumors, particularly the growth of prostate tumors.

The 76 mgs. found in our avocados is more than four times the level found in other commonly eaten fruits, such as bananas, apples, cantaloupes, grapes, plums and cherries. And our avocados do not have all the sugar that raises blood glucose and acidity. Our avocados contain at least twice the amount of beta- sitosterol found in other foods, including corn, green soy beans and olives.

A survey conducted by the National Cancer Institute in a 1992 demonstrated that ounce per ounce the glutathion content in our avocados is three times that of bananas, apples, cantloupes, grapes, plums and cherries.

Glutathione is composed of three amino acids and functions as a buffer neutralizing acids that can cause damage to cells in the body during the process of aging, heart disease and cancer.

Numerous studies have linked glutathione to the prevention of various types of cancer, including cancer of the mouth and pharynx and also heart disease.

Dr. David Heber, director of the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition and author of "What Color Is Your Diet," has this to say about our avocados: "The California avocado is an excellent dietary source of glutathione and phytosterol, further demonstrating the value of the diverse plant-based diet in providing micronutrients that may have unique roles in the body and the potential to improve overall health and prevent chronic disease."

Dr. Heber's findings also indicate that California grown avocados contain a biochemical called lutein, a carotenoid recently discovered in avocados and found in green vegetables, which can help protect against various forms of cancer, including prostate cancer.

UCLA lab tests showed that lutein reduces prostate cancer cell growth by 25 percent, while lycopene from tomatoes reduces cell growth by 20 percent.
When lutein and lycopene were conbined, prostate cancer cell growth was reduced by 32 percent. This indicates that both nutrients together help protect against prostate cancer better than either nutrient alone. "Lutein and lycopene in combination appears to have additive or synergistic effects against prostate cancer," said Heber. "Our result suggests that further study should be done to investigate the nutrient interactions of lutein and lycopene at a sub-cellular and molecular level."

This research is why I recommend avocados and tomatoes for breakfast every morning. Traditionally, lutein has been found in green vegetables such as parsley, celery and spinach, but it was also recently discovered in avocados.

In fact, research has shown that avocados are the highest fruit source of lutein among the twenty most frequently consumed fruits. In addition to the new prostate cancer findings, lutein is also known to protect against eye diseases such as cataracts and macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness.

The new research at UCLA also indicates that our avocados have nearly twice as much vitamin E as previously reported, making them the highest fruit source of this powerful buffer of metabolic and digestive acids.

Vitmain E is known to slow the aging process and to protect against heart disease and common forms of cancer by neutralizing metabolic acids, which may cause cellular damage. Dr. David Heber states, "avocados are recognized as an excellent source of monounsaturated fat which is known to lower cholesterol levels, but the antioxidant and biochemical properties of avocados are less well- recognized. Thee plant nutrients naturally found in fruits and vegetables work together to reduce oxidative stress and prevent disease."

Dr. Heber, along with 35 scientists at the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition, has long endorsed a diet based on 5 to 11 servings per day of a diverse selection of fruits and vegetables, including the avocado.

Worldwide research demonstrates the high intake of fruits and vegetables is associated with better health, largely due to their disease-fighting properties.

The Rancho del Sol Avocado contains fourteen minerals, all of which regulate body functions and stimulate growth. Especially noteworthy are its levels of iron and copper. These minerals aid in red blood cell regeneration and the prevention of nutritional anemia. Our avocados are also a higher source of potassium than bananas, and contain ionic sodium, which gives them a high alkaline reaction without all the acidic sugar.

Our avocados contain no starch and very little sugar and therefore do not pollute the blood with the sugar acid but provides a high source of healthy fats, which can metabolize for energy or construct cellular membranes. The Rancho del Sol Avocado is also a great source of protein at 10 to 15 percent.

For all the reasons above, the Rancho del Sol Avocado products will be one of the most important foods that you eat as you balance your endocrine system or the energy system of your body. I encourage anyone who is doing Type I or Type II diabetes to eat 2 to 3 Rancho del Sol Avocados a day. This will allow your body to enjoy the protective attributes of glutathione, lutein and lycopene while receiving a broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals and healthy fats.

Remember - an avocado a day will keep the Doctor away.

Lower Blood Vessel Inflammation With Fruits and Vegetables

Fruits like strawberries are not only delicious and nutrient-rich, new research from Harvard Medical School found that they may offer cardiovascular disease protection. The new study found that those who reported eating the most strawberries experienced lower blood levels of C-reactive protein, a biomarker for inflammation in the blood vessels.

Howard Sesso, ScD and colleagues at the Harvard School of Public Health reported their findings in the August issue of the Journal of the American College of Nutrition. Using dietary intake records of approximately 27,000 of the women who participated in the decade-long Women's Health Study, Sesso looked at levels of strawberry consumption and several risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The findings revealed that women who ate the most strawberries -- two or more servings per week -- compared to those who reported eating none in the past month, were 14 percent less likely to have elevated C-reactive protein levels.

C-reactive protein or CRP is an acidic blood level biomarker that signals the presence of inflammation in the body. Elevated levels of CRP have been shown in multiple studies to be a potentially good predictor of risk for both heart disease and stroke, as it is generally a signal of atherosclerosis. As a result, The Centers for Disease Control and American Heart Association have established guidelines suggesting that blood acidic levels of CRP higher than 3 mg/L may be important in the risk stratification and prevention of cardiovascular disease.

Researchers found that those women who had higher strawberry intakes were also more likely to lead a heart-healthy lifestyle. On average, women in the highest strawberry intake group ate about twice as many servings of alkalizing fruits and vegetables every day as did women in the lowest intake group. Not surprisingly, they had much higher average intakes of important heart-healthy nutrients like fiber, potassium and folate. They were also most likely to be non-smokers and get daily physical activity. In addition, the high strawberry consumers had modestly lower levels of both total and LDL cholesterol, indicating a lower level of tissue acidosis.

"Higher intakes of fruits and vegetables have consistently been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Strawberries are a rich source of several key nutrients and phytonutrients that may play a role in protecting heart health. This is the first study to show that strawberries may help reduce the likelihood of having elevated CRP levels in the blood. While more research is needed, this study helps provide more evidence that eating fruits and vegetables will help reduce risk for cardiovascular disease,"
said Sesso.

Dr. Robert O. Young states, "the body needs 9 to 12 servings of alkaline fruits and vegetables daily to maintain the alkaline design of the body and to keep the body healthy, strong and fit."

This is why Dr. Young created the Young pHorever pHruits and pHolage whole food.

The Erroneous Johns Hopkins Hospital 'Cancer Update' Article

The following "cancer update" article of mis- information on cancer has been circulating around the internet for about a year. The claim is that the article originated from Johns Hopkins Hospital as an update for how cancer spreads and the recommended methods for treatment.

According to Snopes the article did not originate from Johns Hopkins Hospital and they also deny the authorship of the following article of March 2007.

http://www.snopes.com/medical/disease/cancerupdate.asp

As a matter of scientific interest and to correct many of the myths surrounding cancer I have decided to comment after each statement in the erroneous Johns Hopkins Hospital article.

"CANCER UPDATE"

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.

Dr. Robert O. Young states,
"There is no such thing as a cancer cell. Cancer is not a cell but an acidic dietary and/or metabolic acid that poisons or ferments body cells. Just like a rotten apple in a bushel of healthy apples, the rotten spoiling apple is eluding acid that will spoil all the rest of the healthy apples.

We do not say that the apple or apples have cancer, we say the apples are spoiling or rotting.

Cancer is not a noun it is an adjective. We do not have cancer cells or cancer in our body we have acids that spoil healthy cells causing cancerous cells and a cancerous condition.

When this happens we have cancerous or spoiling cells which describes the reality of what is happening to the body cell(s) in a cancerous or fermenting state. Also, one can test the levels of urine acidity daily which will give an indication of the levels of tissue acidity.

Normal healthy urine pH should read at least 7.2 or above. You can also see the effects of tissue acidity that leads to a cancerous state by viewing how the blood coagulates. If the blood is in a hypo-coagulated state this indicates latent tissue acidosis and a marker for a cancerous or degenerative tissue state.

This simple blood test can be done as an early warning to any cancerous state in any part of the body for the purposes of screening and prevention."

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.

Dr. Young states:
"All of us have cancerous or acidic body cells from conception to death to a lesser or greater degree depending upon lifestyle and dietary choices.

The body is constantly trying to maintain its alkaline design while dealing with its many acidic functions.

The body requires energy to run and the consumption of energy produces dietary and metabolic acidic waste products.

If these dietary and metabolic acidic waste products are not eliminated through urination, perspiration, defecation or respiration they are then eliminated into the body tissues, such as the connective tissues, muscles and bones.

These dietary and/or metabolic acids that are not properly eliminated can then spoil body cells leading to an acidic or cancerous state I call latent tissue acidosis."

3. When a persons immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

Dr. Young states:
"First, the immune system or the white blood cells do not destroy cancerous cells. They do not even pick up cancerous cells.

White blood cells are the janitors of blood traveling through the body fluids picking up smaller insignificant cellular debris from the food we eat.

Second, cancerous cells do not multiply. This is another scientific misconception based upon the premise that cancer is a cell. Cancer is not a cell it is an acidic poisonous liquid flowing through our body fluids.

Dietary and metabolic acids spoil body cells and then as one cell begins to spoil their acids can spoil other cells.

This phenomenon is a what I call the "domino effect".

Metastasis of cancerous cells is the expression of the "domino effect" of acids from one spoiling cell spoiling another cell and so on. This causes the body to go into the preservation mode by forming fibrin monomers to encapsulate the spoiling cells together in order to protect the surrounding healthy tissue. Medical savants call these formations tumors. Tumors are fibrous encapsulations of rotten spoiled cells and their associated acidic waste products."

"A tumor is the body's way of stopping systemic spoiling and localizing the spoiling to a specific localized area.

Tumors are not the cancer but the encapsulation of acidic spoiling cancerous cells. The tumor is the body's solution to systemic spoiling of unhealthy body cells and tissues due to an inverted way of living, eating and thinking and NOT the perceived cause of the cancerous state by current medical savants."

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

Dr. Young states:
"People do not have cancer they are in a cancerous state to a lesser or greater degree depending on lifestyle and dietary choices. When you live, think and eat acidic you pollute your internal environmental fluids causing latent tissue acidosis that can lead to cancerous or spoiling tissues."
"Genetics only plays out in a cancerous state as an inherited physiological weakness where acids may settle. One is only predisposed to a cancerous state if they are making acidic lifestyle and dietary choices."

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.

Dr. Young states:
"To overcome a cancerous state one needs to reestablish the alkaline design of the body and better manage the acidic loads from lifestyle, diet and metabolism. I have suggested for years a healthy body cannot get sick in an alkaline state. All sickness and disease is caused by over-acidic lifestyle and dietary choices. You do not get a cancerous condition you do a cancerous condition. A cancerous condition is the expression of poor lifestyle and dietary choices."

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

Dr. Young states:
"All chemotherapy treatments are acidic. Acidic treatments of chemical therapy only contribute to an already acidic state. The key to health, energy, vitality and fitness of the body is not with the body cells but with the alkaline environment in which the body cells reside. Destroying cancerous cells with drugs does not address the real foundational problem of what causes a cancerous condition.

The true cause of any cancerous state is the level of acidic dietary and metabolic poisons in the fluids of the body. That is why ALL treatments focused on the cancerous cells and tissues will eventually fail with the death of the body. You do not fight fire with the acid of kerosene just as you would not fight a cancerous condition with acidic drugs and/or treatments."

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

Dr. Young states:
"Radiation does breakdown cancerous cells which pollutes the internal alkaline environment causing systemic pollution and stress on the white blood cells and elimination and filter organs, including the lungs, liver, skin, kidney and bowels. The key is not to destroy tumors with radiation but to saturate the tissues with alkalinity. When this happens the tumor will finish its job of encapsulating spoiled or fermenting cancerous cells, crystallize, harden and then breakdown to eventually eliminated. This is the normal healthy life cycle of a tumor in the body."

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.
Dr. Young states:

"Chemotherapy and radiation treatment is focused on the wrong thing - the cells of the body and not the acidic fluids of the body. The problem is not the tumor or cancerous cells. The tumor is the solution to the problem to prevent systemic cellular poisoning or spoiling from dietary and/or metabolic acid. So what is the real problem?

The real problem is systemic acidosis from personal lifestyle and dietary choice that localizes at the weakness parts of the body tissues."

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.

Dr. Young states:
"True immunity comes from maintaining the alkaline design of the body fluids at 7.365 to 7.4. The white blood cells play only a supportive role in maintaining cleanliness of the body fluids. It is true that chemotherapy drugs and radiation can suppress the white blood cells from cleaning up cellular debris. The build up of cellular debris will cause an increase of acidity contributing to an already acidic state. A person in an acidic state or latent tissue acidosis will eventually succumb from the outfections of acids from spoiling cellular debris/matter and cancerous spoiling body cells."

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

Dr. Young states:
"I will state again that there is no such thing as a cancer cell. Body cells do not mutate they spoil.
All body cells transform to bacteria, yeast and then mold in an acidic environment. Acids spread systemically spoiling body cells. Cancerous cells only spoil other cells from their acidic transformations and wastes! Chemotherapy and radiation are acidic treatments that spoil healthy and unhealthy body cells. Surgery removes acidic cancerous cells but disturbs the healthy surrounding tissue. This can cause further acidic complications in and around the surrounding healthy tissue."

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.

Dr. Young states:
"Cancer cells do not multiply! Cancerous cells are body cells that are fermenting, rotting and spoiling other cells. You cannot starve cancerous cells. Body cells are made up of intelligent matter which cannot be destroyed - they can only be changed.

The key to a cancerous condition in the body is to hyper-alkalize the blood which will then force alkalinity into the acidic tissues and thus buffering the tissue acidity that leads to a cancerous state."

CANCER CELLS FEED ON:

Dr. Young states:
"Once again we have cancerous cells not cancer cells. Cancerous cells are not different from healthy cells - they both feed on electrical energy - electrons. Antione BeChamp once said, "everything is the prey of life, nothing is the prey of death."

Matter cannot be created nor can it be destroyed it can only change its form and its function."
12. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in color. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.

Dr. Young states:
"All sugars, including manuka honey and molasses are acid forming and can cause cancerous body cells.

All sugars are acidic waste products from fermenting matter. Braggs aminos is also acidic and should not be ingested when in a cancerous state. Sea salt is alkalizing and should be included in any plan to prevent or reverse a cancerous condition.

Sea salt is also foundational in helping the body create the alkaline buffer of sodium bicarbonate."
13. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus.

By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.

Dr. Young states:

"Mucous is formed by the body as a protection to healthy body cells to buffer dietary and/or metabolic acids. Milk is highly acidic and contains a cancerous causing acid called lactose that breaks down to a primary metabolite called lactic acid. Lactic acid is one of the major cancerous causing acids next to nitric and uric acid from animal proteins. Cancerous cells do not feed on mucus they feed on electrons robbing the body of energy. Mucus is the end product of the body buffering dietary and/or metabolic acids with sodium bicarbonate. Soy milk is also acidic and should not be used unless it is freshly squeezed."

14. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment.

A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

Dr. Young states:
"Cancerous cells are fermenting body cells and do not thrive in an acidic state but are the result of an acidic state. Cancerous cells will continue to breakdown or transform in an acidic environment.

All animal proteins including fish are highly acidic and should not be ingested when one is in a highly acidic cancerous state. The body cannot adequately remove the dietary acids of uric, nitric, sulphuric and phosphoric acid from the animal proteins leading to increased acidity and potentially increased cancerous body cells. Antibiotics and hormones are both metabolic acids and can contribute to an acidic state leading to a cancerous condition."

15. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).

Dr. Young states:
"All enzymes are acids. All acids cause cancerous conditions. The body runs on alkalinity not acidity.

Another way to say this is the body runs on electrons not protons or hydrogen ions. When you are dealing with a serious cancerous condition one needs to reestablish the alkaline design of the body. You can only do this with a 100% alkaline lifestyle and diet! I call this the alkaline plan the COWS program. The COWS program is the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Dietary Plan of alkaline foods, drinks and lifestyle choices. This would include the four food groups of:
1) Chlorophyll
2) Oil
3) Water
4) Salt
It would also include deep breathing, meditation and daily exercise.

16. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water-best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.

Dr. Young states:
"Coffee, black tea, green tea, chocolate are all acidic and do not support the alkaline design of the body. Alkaline water at a pH of 9.5 or above is the best water to drink. Distilled water with sodium chloride or chlorite will increase the alkalinity of the body fluids and buffer excess dietary and metabolic acid."

17. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrefied and leads to more toxic buildup.

Dr. Young states:
"All meat is acidic, all digestive enzymes are acidic and should not be ingested. To support the alkaline design of the body you need to increase your consumption of alkaline food, water and supplements. Daily deep breathing, mediation and exercise are also necessary for maintaining the alkaline design of the body."

18. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering.

By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.

Dr. Young states:
"Cancerous cells have a calcified covering from all the acidity. The body uses calcium ions to buffer endogenous acidity from without and within the body cell. Enzymes are acids that negative effect every cell in the body.

Enzymes do not attack cancerous cells they spoil body cells leading to more cancerous cells. The calcification of the body cell is a means of protection against dietary and/or metabolic acidity."

19. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

Dr. Young states:
"One of the most naturally occurring alkalizing compounds produced by the body is sodium bicarbonate. I have suggested using increased amounts of sodium bicarbonate for years to neutralize the dietary and metabolic acids that make us sick, depressed and tired. Its inexpensive, safe, effective and easy to get. I also suggest liberal amounts of mono and polyunsaturated fats to buffer increased amounts of dietary and/or metabolic acids in the prevention of a cancerous state."

20. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit.
A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

Dr. Young states:
"A cancerous state is caused by acidic lifestyle and dietary choice. This would include your thoughts, your words and your deeds."

21. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level.
Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

Dr. Young states:
"Cancerous cells may change in an oxygen rich state of nascent oxygen, atomic oxygen or O1.
I agree with daily exercise, deep breathing and oxygen supplementation to help maintain the alkaline design of the body. I also strongly believe that the cure for any cancerous condition can be found in its prevention and not in its treatment!"

Origins of the "Cancer Update":
Just as urban legends and rumors eventually become attached to the most famous exemplars of the subjects they discuss (e.g., any fast food-related legend, no matter where it originates, will inevitably be told about McDonald's), so do many of the spurious medical articles circulated on the Internet eventually become attributed to the world-renowned Johns Hopkins University, medical school, and hospitals.

The "Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins Hospital"

quoted above has been forwarded via e-mail as a preface to another piece (about the supposed dangers of using microwave ovens to heat food stored in plastic containers) also falsely said to have originated with Johns Hopkins. Neither article was issued by (or has any connection to) the Johns Hopkins university or hospital, and Johns Hopkins has disclaimed the contents of both.
Of the "Cancer Update" e-mail (most of the information contained within which is of the "quack" variety), Johns Hopkins says:

An email falsely attributed to Johns Hopkins describing properties of cancer cells and suggesting prevention strategies has begun circulating the Internet. Johns Hopkins did not publish the email, entitled "Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins," nor do we endorse its contents.

How To Prevent or Reverse Cataracts

What causes cataracts?

The answer is simple - dietary and metabolic acid.

So what is a cataract?

A cataract is a dietary and/or metabolic acid that has been buffered or chelated with an alkaline buffer, such as calcium. Simply stated a cataract is a stone in the eye.

How do you prevent or reverse cataracts?

Reduce acidity and increase alkalinity.

Women who have higher dietary intake of lutein and zeaxanthin -- compounds found in yellow or dark, leafy vegetables and green fruits like avocado -- as well as more vitamin E from food and supplements appear to have a lower risk for developing cataracts, according to a report in the January issue of Archives of Ophthalmology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.

Why?

Because lutein and zeaxanthin are alkaline buffers of dietary and metabolic acids.

"The oxidative hypothesis of cataract formation posits that reactive oxygen species can damage lens proteins and fiber cell membranes and that nutrients with antioxidant capabilities can protect against these changes," the authors write as background information in the article. Vitamin E, vitamin C, beta carotene, lutein and zeaxanthin are all believed to have antioxidant or anti-acid properties. Lutein and zeaxanthin are the only carotenoids -- yellow or green plant pigments -- present in the lens of the human eye and may also protect against cataracts by buffering dietary and metabolic acids.

William G. Christen, Sc.D., of Brigham & Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, and colleagues analyzed dietary information from 35,551 female health professionals who enrolled in the Women's Health Study in 1993. The women were then followed for an average of 10 years, and the diets of those who developed cataracts were compared with the diets of those who did not.

A total of 2,031 women developed cataracts during the study. When the participants were split into five groups based on the amount of lutein and zeaxanthin they consumed, those in the group who consumed the most (about 6,716 micrograms per day) had an 18 percent lower chance of developing cataracts than those who consumed the least (1,177 micrograms per day). The one-fifth who consumed the most vitamin E from food and supplements -- about 262.4 milligrams per day -- were 14 percent less likely than the one-fifth who got the least (4.4 milligrams per day).

"In conclusion, these prospective data from a large cohort of female health professionals indicate that higher intakes of lutein/zeaxanthin and vitamin E are associated with decreased risk of cataract," the authors write. "Although reliable data from randomized trials are accumulating for vitamin E and other antioxidant or anti-acid minerals and vitamins, randomized trial data for lutein/zeaxanthin are lacking. Such information will help to clarify the benefits of supplemental use of lutein/zeaxanthin and provide the most reliable evidence on which to base public health recommendations for cataract prevention by vitamin supplementation."

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, states, "one of the best sources of lutein and zeaxanthin is from avocado. Avocado is also a good source of Vitamin E and other healthy oils that can help reduce the formation of stones or cataracts by reducing dietary and metabolic acids."

'Holiday Season Influenza' or 'I Ate Too Much Sugar Disease!'

Here are four non-contagious Holiday Season lifestyle and dietary conditions (called diseases by allopathic
medicine) for which I have given new names:

1) "Traveler's Acidic Consequence" is a result of the sum total consumption and behaviors of a traveler during their more unusual or somewhat different from normal lifestyle than when they were not traveling.
A typical traveler's day will upset one's normal metabolism and digestive habits.

They eat and drink different foods at different times and different volumes than usual, which creates an over-acidic state and a need for more alkaline buffers (bicarbonates) leading to indigestion, nausea, acid reflux, heart burn, belching, flatulence, vomiting, constipation, dehydration and further problems of acidity, depending on the degree of irregularity.

"Traveler's Acidic Consequence" is commonly blamed by allopathic medical science on a particular site on the traveler's path as if he/she caught something.

This current medical ideology is based on Pasteur's germ theory and is a scientific myth/illusion.

The true cause of this condition is the result of the traveler's acidic dietary choices and the lack of alkaline hydration, nutrition and hygiene that can result in this over-acidic condition. All the above symptoms is the body in preservation mode trying its best to reestablish the alkaline pH of the internal environment at 7.365 to 7.4.

2) Holiday Season - "I Ate and Drank Too Much Sugar Dis-Ease"
is a result of the sum total consumption and behaviors of a person during the Holiday season eating and drinking everything in site from "swine to wine." This over indulgence may cause belching and flatulence and eventual heart burn, acid reflux, nausea and constipation for which medical science will often prescribe the purple pill. This Holiday Season condition may then lead to the third Holiday Season consequence -

3) "Holiday Season Food Drunk" is a result of over-eating and over-drinking acidic foods and liquids and then falling into a drunken state on the sofa or bed for several hours or even days to sleep off all the acidity. Falling asleep after a heavy Holiday meal is a common occurrence for over-eaters and drinkers.

4) "Holiday Season Influenza" (The Flu) is a result of the sum total consumption and behaviors of a person during a so-called Holiday acidic feasting. They will consume acidic foods and drinks that they may not know or know that are not healthy or alkalizing, i.e., more sugar or sugar substitutes than normal, alcohol, meats and much of this at greater volumes than normal. They become detrimentally influenced physically and emotionally by Holiday acidic foods and drinks.

According to medical savants, "Holiday Season Influenza"
is commonly blamed on a particular virus contracted from another person(s) and not from acidic lifestyle and dietary choices of that person. Like the acidic traveler, a person chooses to consume on their own as many acidic foods and drinks during the Holiday Season and as a result are suffering from the consequences of their poor dietary choices -- not from some phantom flu virus! The flu is nothing more than the body increasing temperature to improve circulation to remove excess acidity from over-acidic lifestyle and dietary choices, through perspiration, respiration, defecation and urination.

Also, please keep in mind it doesn't take either traveling or Holidays for someone to express the symptoms of "Traveler's Acidic Consequence" and/or "Holiday Season Influenza." All you need to do is consume excessive amounts of acidic meats, chocolate, ice cream, cake, alcohol or other acidic thrillers. This can also happen in the middle of a warm summer.

This coming Holiday Season may you resolve not to succumb to the acidic choices that lead to "Traveler's Acidic Consequence," or "I Ate and Drank Too Much Sugar Dis-ease," "Holiday Season Food Drunk" and/or "Holiday Season Influenza."

In love and healing alkaline light,

Dr. Robert O. Young

PS I hope we can learn to take responsibility for our own lifestyle and dietary choices and the consequences we experience rather then blame it or transfer personal responsibility to a phantom or harmless virus - like the flu virus, ebola virus, HIV virus, HPV virus, West Nile virus, Bird flu virus, and the list goes on and on and on!

What Happened to That Imaginary Avian Flu Virus and Epidemic?

What Happened to That Imaginary Bird Flu Epidemic?

The strain of bird flu that can be deadly to humans appears not to have moved through the world with migrating flocks of wild birds, despite scientists fears.

Thousands of wild birds were tested in a wide variety of countries. There was no sign of the virus at all in Africa, and only sparse detections in Europe. It is unknown to scientists why bird flu is not spreading in the wild more widely and quickly. (But not unknown to us when we understand the New Biology)

More than 13,000 wild birds were tested since February in the Netherlands, a major bird migration route. None have carried the virus. The EU has started to ease restrictions in recent months, but continues to strictly regulate poultry in farms near wildlife water reserves and river deltas.

Despite all those 'Chicken Little' warnings from so-called 'health experts,' that rumored bird flu epidemic -- predicted to kill some 2 million Americans -- turned out to be a whole lot of hot air.

When you know the true cause of dis-ease, which is the over-acidification of the blood and tissues due to an inverted way of living, eating and thinking, then you understand this imaginary bird flu virus has more to do about selling more drugs and making more money for big business then protecting our health.

The colds and flus that we experience during the year is the body's alkaline buffering system removing excess acidity out of the body through urination, perspiration, respiration and defecation.

Colds and flus ARE NOT CAUSED BY A VIRUS! They are caused by dietary and metabolic acids - especially the acid SUGAR!

If you want a cold or a flu this coming NEW YEAR eat more acidic sugary foods and drinks, animal proteins and alcohol.

To protect yourself from the symptoms of excess tissue acidity that can cause the aches and pains we associate with colds and flus, may I suggest the following:

1) Drink 1 glass of pHour salts with 1 scoop in 4 to
6 ounces of distilled or purified water 3 times a day.

2) Drink 3 to 4 liters of fresh or powdered green fruit and vegetable juices every day.


3) Take 4 capsules of pHlush or magnesium oxide 3 times a day with alkaline pH water or green juices.

4) Take a spray of pHlavor salts in the mouth 6 to 9 times a day.

5) Eat 9 to 12 servings of green vegetables and fruits every day.

6) Eat 2 to 3 ounces of unsaturated fat from hemp seed, flax seed, borage seed, olive, avocado, primrose, and fatty fish, every day.

7) Do not eat foul of any kind. They are highly acidic as applied in their name.

8) Stay away from all pork products.

9) You can eat fatty fish like, trout, sea bass, salmon and tuna. The oils in fatty fish will buffer dietary and metabolic acids.

10) Remember dairy is scary. Dairy contains lots of lactose sugar which becomes lactic acid in the body.
Lactic acid is one of the major causes of cancerous tissue, especially breast and prostate cancer.
So stay away from ALL dairy products.

11) Ideally all alcohol beverages, soda pops and soda water are highly acidic and should all be avoided to prevent any sickness or dis-ease.

12) Remember stress is 3 times more acidic then the food you eat. A high percentage of heart attacks are caused by a thought attack. So relax and enjoy life in the moment.

13) Get adequate rest - at least 8 hours a day.

14) Avoid coffee, tea, chocolate and tobacco.

15) Drink fresh ginger tea with fresh squeezed lemon juice in alkaline pH water.

16) Drink alkaline 9.5 pH water daily, when drinking water.

17) Avoid eggs. They contain over 37,500 pathological microbes per egg and pollute the blood. This activates the immunes system to clean up the cellular pollution which can take up to 72 hours.

18) Exercise daily for at least 1 hour each day and sweat, sweat, sweat! When you are sweating you are moving dietary and metabolic acids through the pores of the skin and protecting the delicate alkaline pH of the body.

19) Laugh out loud daily.

20) Each day take time out of your day to meditate and/or pray.
