Watch Your Body pH by Sue Mueller
Minerals are important to maintain one's health. Linus Pauling, winner of two Nobel
Prizes, said each disease is associated with deficiency of certain minerals.
One vital function of minerals is to keep an alkaline body pH. When you do not feel
good and you know something wrong, you go to see a doctor and he does not know
there may be something wrong with your body pH.
Often times, when you feel down, your pH is too low or strongly acidic. You are
supposed to have a slightly alkaline pH, anywhere between 7.1 and 7.4 roughly. PH 7
is neutral and below 7 is acidic. You need a normal alkaline pH to keep all cells
functioning properly.
A low acidic body pH is one of the important causes for many diseases including
cancer. 85% cancer patients are found to have a low pH between 5 and 6. At a
normal pH, cancer cells can't grow. That is why some cancer patients get their cancer
controlled after they change their lifestyle including diet.
How to maintain a normal pH? You need to have a balanced diet to keep your body
pH alkaline. Some foods, known as alkaline food such as tea and seaweed, tend to
generate an alkaline pH while others, known as acid food such as protein food, tend
to make an acidic pH. Drinking water with an alkaline pH is good for your health.
Knowing this, you know how to prevent many diseases. Many diseases such as
diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer, which are seen commonly in affluent
countries, may be related to their high-fat and or high-protein diet. These diseases
are much less common in developing countries where plant food is much more
common than protein or food derived from animals such as beef and milk. High
protein intake shifts the body pH toward acidic, which is the base for many diseases.
A news story reported lately says there are more than 20 people at age 100 or older
in a small Chinese town with 80,000, which is rarely found elsewhere. The rate is
high. Researchers found that the underground water the residents used to cook food
is so alkaline that it smells a strange odor.
Remember you may at least get the majority of diseases under control by adjusting
your diet that tends to make an alkaline body pH. This is significant to many patients.
Doctors use highly harmful treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy
because they want to kill each and every cancer cell while these treatments per se
can cause new cancerous cells. As a matter of fact, you don't have to kill all cancer
cells to be healthy. You can't kill all of them in your body any way.
A patient with nose cancer received surgery, but did not take any further treatment.
He followed a healthy diet. 28 years later, he died from another cause. Biopsy
revealed that there were a lot of cancer cells around the area where the tumor was
removed. But the new cancer cells can't grow into any clinically significant cancerous
mass, known as cancer. The patient lived so long peacefully with cancer cells (not
cancer) probably because he maintained an alkaline body pH.
