Author What's the best source of info on Acid/Alkaline affects of food?

Hi

I suspect that my body may be over-acidified.

Can anyone recommend a reliable source if information
about what foods have what affect on the PH of
the human body?

[Basically I need to find
a) which foods are good at creating an Alkaline affect
b) which acidifying foods I should avoid! ]

Is there a good cheap book
OR a well-researched website?

Don't worry. If your kidneys are working well, you don;'t have to worry
about the acidity of food. Your kidneys excrete more acid, as needed.

Here is some info about how urine and saliva pH testing is bogus:

Although I have a BSc (hons) in Animal Science I know very little about
this subject... but yes it's pretty *obvious* that any complex organism
would be able to regulate its own pH - and the obvious way to do this
would be by excretion - such as through the kidneys.

But that is almost like stating a blind truism.

The question is that over longer periods of time does eating a diet of
one sort or another lead to long-term effects - such as calcification
or de-calcification of the bones.

Clearly testing the pH of an excretion organ would product very
spurious results - it would mainly tell you what you had been eating
lately.

One could possibly test the pH of one's blood, though again that is
unlikely to tell us anything very significant unless one did numerous
tests over numerous days. Plus you would need a very sensitive pH meter
I suspect as any variations are likely to be small.

Nonetheless it is theoretically possible that after sustained incorrect
diet that the pH of the blood my eventually become measurably "wrong".

But it would be complicated by such things as disolved CO2 content and
lactic acid/urea etc - so perhaps it might be better to measure other
indicators...

Incidentally if the body is so good at regulating its pH what is the
chemical messenger (ie hormone) that tells the kidneys whether to
extreme more or less adicic/alkaline ions (H+ ions?) ...

The allopaths know and are taught about acidosis and alkalinosis, but
this only has to do with abberations in the blood pH which can have
immediate and dire consequenses.
The allopaths the ADA nutritionists are not taught anything about the
acid/alkaline quality of food and the short term and long term effects.

Why are we just now finding out and reporting that osteoporosis begins
around 25 when it has been known that it begins around age 25 for over
100 years?
This is the long term decalcification, or more properly, the
demineralization of the bones due to an overly acidic diet and
lifestyle. The concept that a female would reach menopause and
suddenly lose 60-70 % of her bone density due to hormone variations is
bogus and fraudulet, but nothing new for the allopathic medical mind.

The kindneys and the urine can respond within hours. It is a
convenient way to control some bacterial infections and even dissolve
some kidney stones caused by an overly acidic urine.

It has been tried but even when measured to say 7.400 pH units, it will
not provide you with useable diagnostic information.

The blood has the phosphate buffer, the carbonate/bicarbonate,
minerals, and proteins to use to buffer the blood. The bones and
tissues will suffer long before any change will be allowed to show in
the blood.

Try reading Foods that alkalinize and heal by Hogle, available at
Amazon or Healthresearchbooks.
Basically all fresh fruits and veggies are alkaline.
All cooked foods and most grains are acidic. Spelt and millet are
alkaline.
All fresh nuts but two are acidic.
You need a balance of alkaline and acidic for health.

Hi Ship,

Why don't you buy THE book and do some macrobiotic dieting and let us
know how you do with it?

Less meat equals less P for me as it means less fat/arachidonic acid/
omega-6's etc.
Oh and ACID! Not LSD but regular!

You could give your demographics, onset age, duration, severity, family
members/P,
etc before and after. Then be a macobiotic psoriatic for some period of
time.

http://www.google.com/search?tab=gw...20aihara&hl=en&

It may be dated a bit. But i'm sure many are happy with it.

Others.... may...not!

And if it doesn't give you any bang for your efforts you could
supplement
with NAC, IP-6, selenium, magnesium, ALCAR and fix the colon with
wit kit ( www.thewholewhey.com ) and supplement with the proflora whey
etc.

Stand on your head, wiggle your ears and jump uP and down.

Here's a new improved food idea,
University of Michigan Food Pyramid
http://www.med.umich.edu/umim/clini...ramid/index.htm

Or is it all that new? Did hunter/gatherers live the pyramid? Some
folks today could find a reason from it to be a fruitarian. But not for
long. ;-0

But Great....grand dad/ma lived the feast or famine triP. And our genes
plus
the P ones came from them.

And that may be a better diet to correct flucuations in the pH of your
diet
then changing what goes into the mouth! Quanity and quality certainly
could
be considered.

I can't stop thinking of one person right now close to death due to NO
water/food.

Certainly most of us could eat a lot less.

At any rate there are more technical terms for you to play around with
here.
http://groups-beta.google.com/group...s&q=orac&qt_g=1

If this link above breaks use this next one and read the ones from this

If this one breaks stick p r a l (altogether of course) into
the p ng box and do it yourself,

Sure you could kill yourself with the fork. Provided your gut isn't
connected
to your brain. Or your into hedonism. Then your trading perceived
quality for less
quantity of life.

But who knows what turns you on? You can see what most folks are into.

We just don't want the same folks checking out our topical plaques and
thinking we're into something funky!

Why blind truism as there is known physiology.

That would depend on the individuals physiology at the time in relation to
his environment and eating habits.

Yes and No. There are short term changes and then there are those with
altered physiology with inborn errors in biochemistry who have long term
changes or those with renal failure or hepatic failure that have altered
physiology as well.

All of the above is common day occurance at any hospital via blood gas
measurements.

If you are diseased yes but if you are normal then it would not impact you.

Why? I thought the premise was pH based and not something else. That is why
the whole pH diet is bogus for normal people.

The acid is buffered via a bicarb to carbonic acid ratio.
The CO2 is excreted by the lungs and the kidneys control the regulation of
bicarbonate.
You can look up the rest.

Really?? But maybe in another fashion than you think.

They learn at least over here about how alcalic ash food ingredients
(like many vegetables containing potassium) may counteract the
acidifying effect of sulfur amino acids in proteins. Which is an
alkaline/acidic balance. And very important issue of how use of
protein may or may not promote osteoporosis.
Reducing acidifying effect of sulfur amino acids by decreasing protein
intake is not a very good idea since that will reduce amount of GSH
and taurine, and thus hamper immune system function, increasing rate
of mutation in viruses like HIV and influenza viruses. Decreasing GSH
production (which is very easily degraded into free amino acids if you
think it is a good idea to eat expensive GSH from a reseller instead
of eating cystein rich ingredients) also has many other side effects,
like deprivation of the most important antioxidation systems which are
based on GSH.

It is a better idea to increase the amount of alcalic ash food
ingredients high in potassium.

Out of date? LOL

It is a stand alone work years ahead of it's time. That's why there are no
recent editions.
The other definitive works on diet comflicts with the ABO blood type diet.
Both world renown authors are in conflict which is why we are all confused
in the medical world.

When is the truth ever out of date? I think that an apple falling from
a tree still falls down to the ground and not up to the sky. Is the
earth round or flat? Does the sun circle the earth or does the earth

So what?

There is over 100 years of credible scientific and medical evidence
for the acid/alkaline impact on human and animal health. However, you
have to search the orthopathic literature as I have.

You do not seem to be aware that there was, and still is, two medical
theories in the USA.
You have the allopathic medical model based upon the medical monopoly's
theory of drugs and the psuedo scientic use of those drug models to
cure disease.
There is also the orthopathic medical model based upon the concept that
only the living organism can heal itself and that there are no cures,
i.e., you simply cannot force the sick to heal by giving them poisons
to control some symptoms.

I find the orthopathic medical model to be credible, scientific,
medically correct, and easily understandable by anyone willing to think
for themselves. That said, the last medical school teaching orthopathy
was shut down by the medical monopoly in 1908. Do you really think
that I or anyone can today produce "scientific" evidence in total
opposition to the wishes of the medical monopoly?

I have to say I find it strange to say the least that
> a spot of cooking can suddenly transform an alkaline-forming

It is called thermal decomposition, pyrolization, and accelerated
oxygen degration. The browning of meat is the cedompostion of the
amino acids in the protein. The smell of cabbage cooking is the odor
of the sulfur bearing amino acids decomposing.

You can feed a wild carnivore fresh meat and it will thrive. You can
feed a wild carnivore cooked meat and it will die. Why?

Many animals in the wild will eat only freshly caught meat.
Many animals in the wild will die before eating cooked foods. Why?

The worst thing you can do is feed your pet cat or dog your table
scraps. Why? They will develop heart disease, cancer, cataracts,
arthritis, and diabetes the same as you. Why?

True scientific evidence is supposed to explain for us why the things
we see happen really happens. Science is supposed to support and
explain the truth, not make truths.

Try the US department of Agriculture and their analyses of the mineral
ash content of foods. There is another hygienic book which quantifies
these properties, but I do not recall his name or the book title at
this time.

And it's not 1993. The revised third edition
was published in 1935, under the original title
_Build_Up_With_Foods_That_Alkalinize_and_Heal_.
The 1937 edition shortened the title to
_Foods_That_Alkalinize_and_Heal_.

I don't know when the first edition was published.

The 1993 printing from Mokelumne Hill is
a reprint edition -- that publisher has reprinted
many early books of "alternative" medicine
and science.

Of course not. That must be why. When there is a lack of evidence it must be
because of the oppositions conspiracy.

pH?
I like my proven theory better and that is if you eat an alkaline food the
stomach acid must be produced in order to balance the acid. Classic Acid
base chemcial reactions, but the body over compsensates and produces too
much acid as happens with many protein loads. You get hyperacidity in the
long run.
I will publish a book and sell it so I don't want to give out all the
details but it cures ulcers, cancer, bone calcium deficits and anything else
I can tie acid base reactions to.
I don't have any proof because of the main stream medical conspiracy.

Orthopathic acid/alkaline theory is not concerning pH of anything in

Understood. How do they get from the state of mind to eating for pH?
Parasites often elude the host immunity by wrapping itself in host
substances and tissues as a way of hiding from within. They complain about
conventional medicine yet they use the language of conventional medicine to
hide behind.

"Orthopathic" medicine, huh? Interesting.

Well I'm happy to keep an open mind both ways.

However
a) What are we supposed to do? Eat raw meat and end up with zillions of
parasites?

b) With all due respect you appear to be somewhat biased.
All bodies of knowledge have their place.
And objectively speaking there are many diseases that
modern "allopathic" medicine has been very successful at
tackling. Most types of bacteria, small box, leprocy (sp?) etc

You only need to bear witness to primitive tribesmen in South America
on superb natural organic etc etc diets being wiped out by our
modern/Western diseases to see that our "allopathic" medicine
has at least SOME benefits.

Why are we just now finding out and reporting that osteoporosis begins
around 25 when it has been known that it begins around age 25 for over
100 years?
This is the long term decalcification, or more properly, the
demineralization of the bones due to an overly acidic diet and
lifestyle. The concept that a female would reach menopause and
suddenly lose 60-70 % of her bone density due to hormone variations is
bogus and fraudulet, but nothing new for the allopathic medical mind.

The blood has the phosphate buffer, the carbonate/bicarbonate,
minerals, and proteins to use to buffer the blood. The bones and
tissues will suffer long before any change will be allowed to show in
the blood.

Try reading Foods that alkalinize and heal by Hogle, available at
Amazon or Healthresearchbooks.
Basically all fresh fruits and veggies are alkaline.
All cooked foods and most grains are acidic. Spelt and millet are
alkaline.
All fresh nuts but two are acidic.
You need a balance of alkaline and acidic for health.

I ate according to Macrobiotics for 7 years and though there was alot
about it I liked I never was satisfied with the explanations we
received from the macro teachers concerning why the "macro" way of
eating seems to inevitably produce significant cravings. Now that I am
eating a balanced, plant based diet I experience no cravings.

I'm tired of trying to help you and watch everyone from your unruly

Sorry, you are wrong. The orthopaths proved that in the healthy
stomach the stomach will go alkaline in order to digest the carbs and,
then, after up to two hours go acidic to stop the carb digestion in
order to be able to digest the protein load.

Excess protein load will also cause the disease of proteiosis,
poisoning due to excess protein in the stomach. The symptoms are the
same as food poisoning, which it is, and the results are the same,
including up to death.

All the orthopaths are trying to keep you from hearing the truth. They have
an economic interest in keeping you in the dark about the truth. There are
millions of dollars out there they bring in by seeing people daily and they
are not really interested in curing people but only treating them. They use
suboptimal amounts in their medicines that will take years and money.

I beg your pardon? Digestion with acid is not biochemical in nature?
Lewis Brunsted acid base theory is very real. Look it up in every chemistry
book known. You don't need stomach acid then only enzymes? Without acid you
don't get absorption of essential vitamins and minerals. Try reading more.
Better yet I will simplify it in my next chapter and book. The ABC's of
diet. The Acid Base, and I am still working on C, way of eating.

Theoretically the body does a good job of maintaining the correct
acid/alkaline balance. I have found, as many of you have also found,
that this is just theory. I have noticed that if I keep my urine above
a pH of 7.0, that I feel much better-I have more energy and less
joint pain. I have discovered that this is difficult, but not
impossible, to accomplish with diet alone. One of my favorite ways to
stay alkaline is to add one-half teaspoon of baking soda to one-half
can of frozen grapefruit concentrate that has been mixed with the
appropriate amount of water and drink the mixture between meals. The
sodium bicarbonate provides an obvious alkaline substance and the
grapefruit juice alkalizes as it is metabolized in the body providing
potassium to counterbalance the sodium in the process. Grapefruit
juice interferes with the metabolism in the liver of some prescription
drugs. If you are one of these people, do not use this formula.
I sometimes use a mixture of sodium bicarbonate and potassium
bicarbonate to accomplish the same thing.
In addition, I have also discovered that supplementing my diet with
glutamine on an empty stomach helps to rebuild my alkaline reserves.
The usual daily dosage for this is six to nine grams per day. Some
people (usually diabetics) should only use glutamine under the guidance
of a knowledgeable health care professional. Usually additional
taurine is given in this case. It is important to do your research in
this area if you have a chronic health condition. The glutamine does
make a big difference in how I feel.

Actually, studies show that the normal blood pH of 7.4 (give or take 0.04)
is maintained by the healthy body.

Eat meat sparingly as a protein meal after it has been cooked enough to

Wrong. The germ theory of disease is bogus. Illness in a human is
dis-ease, the body is not at ease. Bacteria, viruses, prions, etc.,
etc., do not exist to cause disease.
That is why you can recover from an illness. If some bogus entity
could really invade you and make you sick, you would die each and every
time just as you will with gangrene unless some drastic measures are
taken.

I was prescribed by a N.D., sodium and potasium bicarbs but the timing was
important. I was told 10 am and 4 pm were in tune with my body bi-carb
cycles. It worked wonderfully to get rid of my aches / pains / heartburn /
reflux / esophagial spasms / tendonitus / bursitus and stiffness in the
mornings. It took about 2 .1/2 months to give me loose joints like I never
have before. The aches and pains only take about 1 week to disappear.

Where do you get potasium bicarbonate form?

The Greek word for medicines is pharmakia from which we get the word
pharmceuticals, etc. This word can also be translated as poisons.
Since all medicines are poisons and many poisons are used as medicines,
what modern man is really doing is trying to poison the sick into
getting well. A great example today is botulism toxin, one of the
world's deadliest poisons. Today the blood poisoners are using it as
medicine and we even have botox parties.

The false concept of immunization has been around for thousands of
years. It does not work.
A primary source for vaccines is the refined residue of rotten eggs.
Polio vaccine is produced from the pus of diseased monkey kidneys. To
this refined filth we may add aluminum, mercury,etc. to further
heighten its toxicity.
Is it any wonder that humans sicken and die when this concoction is
injected directly into the body to bypass many of the systems which
would detoxify the poison and flush it from the body?

There is no such thing as disease.
There is only dis-ease, the body is not at ease. Your so called
diseases are the healing efforts of a toxic body suffering dis-ease.

Nice comeback. In the future, you should use a grammer checker. I am not

Also, please learn to put your comments *in-line*, so we can follow the

The key is that C O N C E N T R A T E D carbs and protein should not
be eaten together.
All living foods contain some carbs/protein/fat. The difference is
that some are high in carbs while others are high in protein and others
are high in fat.

While it is not recongized today, I can show you current scientific
literature which corroberates my position.
A healthy stomach in a mineral sufficient human will go alkaline in
order to digest any carbs in the food. The main amaylase in our saliva
is active only in an alkaline pH and is not able to be reactivated
after once being acidified.
Once the carbs are broken down, the stomach will secrete HCL and the
pre-enzyme for pepsin. The pre-enzyme plus HCL forms pepsin and
protein digestion ensues whereby the protein will be broken down to
dipeptides, peptones, etc. but not the individual amino acids.
Human food is supposed to contain very little fat, so very little
lipase is secreted in the stomach. This means that fat is not very
well digested or tolerated in the stomach.

Failure to recognize these facts and living in a manner which will
cause these problems, will lead to indigestion, heartburn, hiatal
hernias, gastritis, ulcers, and finally even stomach cancer.

I have a typo here. The disease is proteinosis. I nearly lost a
daughter to this disorder. Fortunately, she vomited the rotting
protein mass before it was able to kill her. Just as fortunate, I had a
bag in the car for her to vomit into when I picked her up from her
work.

The use of digestive enzymes, if from plant sources, will aid
digestion. It may not be able to digest all the excess protein load.

I notice you say "in a mineral sufficient human."
Is that a big diet/food problem these days? Folks are not
getting enough minerals from their diet?

I guess that fact from the TV ads touting OTC heartburn problem
for a so-called heart-burn problem which just makes matters worse.

There are very few infectious diseases that kill everyone infected. Even
serious illnesses like pneumonia are not deadly to everyone who gets it.

Even ebola, though that can run 70-90% fatalities in some variants.

The only infectious disease I can think of offhand that's just about
100% fatal (over the short term) is rabies. I've only heard of a
couple of cases where it wasn't fatal. (Rabies is quite rare in
humans in the US, and most people who are exposed get the vaccine, so
that keeps fatalities to a tiny number, but in places like South Asia,
it's much more common and kills lots of people.)

No treatment for people with symptoms of rabies and it is not quite 100%
fatal anymore. They put you into a coma to help the body build an immune
response. A 15 year old girl from Wisconsin was cured after she developed
symptoms. She was put on two antivirals drugs and two anwsthetics so she
would stay in a coma for one week. She is recovering now. She was bitten by
an infected bat and developed rabies one month later without the vaccine
being given earlier.

Off the internet. It is possible to get an MD from reading and getting an
education on this NG and others. Readers here on average know much more than
any doctor. Just one example. Doctors don't know that you can glue your
lungs and eat something to unglue them or digest them properly.

Please put your comments in-line, so the thread is easier to follow.

Vaccines didn't come out until the 1700's or so when Jenner popularized the
smallpox vaccine.

No. The surviving people probably had immunity to the plague (see below --
the poster was too lazy to put the comments in line making them harder to
follow), just like Europeans developed partial immunity to measles, without
a vaccine.

Flu is still with us. However, the evidence that measles vaccination has
removed measles and polio from the US is overwhelming. (The vaccine made the
partial immunity that most people had to measles much more effective.)

I am sorry, I don't understand your point. I see nothing wrong with selling
things for a profit. Ford sells cars for a profit. I don't see a problem

Actually, the body excretes acid, which gets rid of the acid. The body keeps
an appropriate acid/base balance almost all the time in health with a
normal, unless there is kidney or other illness, like kidneys disease or
diabetes, which can cause an increase in acid (called a metabolic acidosis).
