Water, Water Everywhere....and


Comments below were made on Mercola's site regarding his article on water. The comment section was great with sharing ideas and opinions on Ph, what kind of water and filter to benefit health, etc.

Below are my comments there. Here is the web address for the article.
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/01/29/dr-pollack-on-structured-water.aspx
******

I read Dr. Revici's book, The Doctor Who Cures Cancer that Kelley Eidem markets through his blog. Information and discussion are a good thing....He found that diet worked for a while, and then the cancer would revert or flip. He tested people's urine, pain level, etc. to keep them on track. Some cancers are anabolic, and some are catabolic,  (cell growth or destruction) and have to be treated by someone who realizes the importance of Ph. Sadly, the ACA undermined Dr. Revici's work, or we would have been able to progress much further in cancer healing.Dr. Revici's patients weren't in pain like the rest of the poor people suffering under the AMA theories of the day, which are still functioning. I remember Sloane Kettering wanted to have the first 'cancer cure', and so were integral in sabotaging Dr. Revici's work w/ ties to the ACA. Basically, the chemical warfare manufacturers still wanted profit after the World Wars, so came up with the idea that chemo might be pushed to help with cancer. No different than Monsanto's greed to sterilize seed and contaminate corn, alfalfa now, etc. to control the world's food supply, or the petro dollar responsible for controlling transportation energy inventions and polluting the environment.
Dr. Mercola: What do you recommend as ACTION to turn this crazy planet around? Education? Media merely quotes one junk science study to confuse people after solid studies.
Thank you Barbfieck for the tips on wheat grass and sprouts in water... I live w/ well water now, and want to know what kind of potable point of use method is best-ozone or UV. In the last small town I had heavily chlorinated water, but no flouride, and I loved my coconut/carbon medium filter. The water was pure and sweet-tipped to alkaline. I'm drinking organic lemon squeezed into a qt. jar of nasty Culligan-type water for a mild cleanse. Though acidic, it's supposed to turn alkaline in the body. I hate the plastic storage container or the R/O acidic/dead water idea.
**********
I have a suspicion that we simply are struggling with a lack of full understanding or knowledge, which means there is an exciting new frontier being opened up by challenge, and sharing experience. Sharing sure happens more quickly on the internet. When the Ph of water can resolve eczema-(even if temporarily, as fungus, toxins, Candida, etc. have to be addressed in diet, detox, oxygen, heavy metals, even the detergent residues and household cleaners coming in contact with the person's skin and lungs, etc.,) or can kill insects without poison, we can't merely throw that fact away. Sometimes I can laugh at my own frustration level, and I certainly see it here in this forum. If we form coalitions of intention for the good of mankind, we can bring our many ideas and 'gadgets' together. Dr. Mercola for instance, even introduced different 'body types'-so we know we are not all cut from the same cookie cutter. There is variation in what works for one....
I listened to a microbiologist/Dr. discuss her training that Ph is not involved in cancer, and that the body just balances itself. She tested cancerous tissues in the lab, and found her training to be inaccurate. We all know that certain foods can tip people to form uric acid, and thus gout, and it requires diet etc. to balance and heal, the same with arthritis deposits, teeth and bone loss, and heart attack victims with heart cells bathed in acid. Today this forum sounds like a sharing of 'mad scientists'. Bravo for us.

Psoriasis Solutions. Balancing Body Chemistry.



Psoriasis: (Supplements that I would recommend for my own family listed below for easy understanding.)
Knowledgeable doctors say it doesn't matter the name of the disease, but the acidic environment that enables them in the first place. Water is an easy first consideration to tip your body to alkaline. Psoriasis is about fungus manifesting itself. That is why sun helps. Vitamin D makes calcium, which alkalinizes. Fungus can't grow well in that environment. Even a healthy cell can evolve into bacteria, yeast, fungus, and cancer if bathed in acid and toxins. Medications are often looked at as a convenience for fast results, but they further acidify us, and side effects can be serious and deadly. Too many medications are rushed for human use without adequate testing, like the 33 vaccines that have never been tested for the cumulative or long-term effects when used in the first short years of a child's life. Profit has unfortunately been a fraudulent force in approving many meds.

One of my sisters had psoriasis as a child and was given doctor-ordered tar baths. Coal tar derivitives are known to cause cancer. Did you know that many synthetic vitamins are made from the same thing? You want natural food supplements w/ enzymes intact for easy absorption.
Family note: We moved from snowy Spokane, Washington to Mesa, Arizona so my sister would get more sun to help her psoriasis. A brother got asthma from the pesticides sprayed on the cotton fields there. Hmm.

I did a lot of PH testing of water: R/O unit, Britta charcoal/carbon -Filtered water, Distilled water, tap water, and my Bestwater Stainless Steel with Coconut Shell Medium Carbon large surface water filter!!! I was thrilled to find my little $220 on the counter Bestwater unit was alkaline at 9.1. The others were acidic, with the R/O and Britta actually more acidic than just chlorinated tap water. I did it with a professional PH tester, not the strips. I don't drink bottled water, as it is not only acidic, I don't know what kinds of chemicals leach into the water from the plastic. I keep my 9.1 alkaline water in a glass gallon jar on my counter, and work on drinking it all in tea, green smoothies, or just good old clean water. (As clean as I can get it with the vast amounts of chemo, anti-depressants, chemicals, etc. of all kinds. The Bestwater unit also reduces parasite cysts. Even though the testing shows over 99.95%, we don't say remove.) I've looked at the Kangen water units, and they look impressive, but the $4000 is a bit steep for most people. Hopefully, like the advent of microwaves, toasters, etc. the price will descend on alkaline water units as competition advances. For now, I filter my day's drinking water into a gallon glass jar as I said, and empty it during the day for hydration and flushing environmental toxins, etc. It's a good way to keep track of getting that 8-12 glasses a day. The Bestwater filter is for 1000 gallons or 1 year. I will use it longer as I'm a single user. A replacement filter at member price is $90.80 making the second year's cost 9 cents a gallon.

Did you know that drinking 6 and up glasses of water a day will reduce most joint pain?

Doctors in Japan are giving women with breast cancer and other cancers, and babies with horrible eczema, alkaline water to drink. Babies have the water patted on their eczema. Within 2-3 months they are well or vastly improved. The change of diet to alkaline and the alkaline water changes the colonoscopy pictures of the cancer patients like night and day. I just read the book called "The Ultimate PH Solution. Balance Your Body Chemistry to Prevent Disease and Lose Weight". by Michelle Schoffro Cook, DNM, DAc

I like her material, though if you don't know how soy milk, tofu, etc. is processed, I say, don't buy it. Almond or rice milk is an alternative. A good plant protein is Shaklee's Energizing Soy. It is processed w/ water, removes the anti-thyroid substance, is non-GMO and has 50% calcium added so it neutralizes the acidity of this legume. The taste is so creamy and wonderful. I love Cocoa or Vanilla, plain in almond or rice milk, water if you are out of everything, or with fruit or nut butters or in smoothies. A friend of mine puts it in his cereal or with fruit and yogurt.

Health is about kicking the acid, balancing the ph, getting sun, exercise, reducing stress, good diet and supplementation for Optimal Health!!! 70% alkaline foods and water, and 30% acidic foods.

I shared the following on YouTube for people suffering with psoriasis:
For Psoriasis: Think fungus manifesting itself, helped by stress. What has worked well for others: Vita Lea multivitamin, Energizing Soy and Optiflora-a probiotic to balance the gut flora. Drink filtered, alkaline water-1/2 your body weight in ounces, purify your blood with Alfalfa. It strengthens and cleanses kidneys. GLA is important for all skin disorders, DTX to clean the liver of fungus and toxins, Stress relief complex to feed the adrenals and Carotomax (betacarotene from algae) to nourish epithelial tissue.

Another one:

My psoriasis is gone for years. Think fungus, which loves acid environments. Stress lowers the immune system and causes outbreaks, usually during winter with low Vitamin D. There are natural supplements that work for many people. Medicines just deplete your nutrients further. Trust your own intuition. Ask me for the list of natural supplements.

See Psoriasis supplements from the Common Ailments Doc below:

***The program is to start on the Vita Lea multivitamin, Soy Protein for a good plant protein, and Optiflora (probiotic guaranteed to get 100% in the colon where it's needed.)
Then you add the first 3 items, and any others you think would help you.

Note: We tend to get low on the same nutrients throughout our lives, as diet habits are hard to completely change.

Acidosis, Arthritis, Calcium and Disease



Our bones and teeth are our calcium bank. When our bodies become too acidic because of our diets, little or no exercise, stress and medications, the calcium and minerals in our bones and teeth are robbed to supply the body with what it needs to balance PH and nourish the tissues. http://www.ionizers.org/acidosis.html This site discusses the need for PH balance, and that calcium loss does not show up in Xrays until it is 30-40% depleted from our bones. Doctors have said it is not important what disease we have, but the acidic environment that allows it. When we have Candida overgrowth or cancer, we most likely have a virus, fungus, bad bacteria or parasites also, as they thrive in an acidic environment. See www.onelifeusa.com for Dr. Hulda Clark's Parasite Cleanse. See www.curezone.com for pictures and accounts of parasites.

A physical manifestation of acidosis is the calcium robbed from our bones, that lays down in our joints as arthritis.Gout is a very painful form of arthritis. You can heal arthritis most times without medications. Medications acidify us further, and also block nutrient formation and absorption.
Next Blog I will share from the booklet: Medication-Induced Nutrient Deficiency.

Alkaline water is the newest product being pushed it seems. Certainly removing the chlorine from our drinking water will reduce the acid we take in. A doctor lecturing on water purity said one Shaklee Alfalfa tablet (for 4 cents) would alkalinize a whole gallon of water. Alfalfa's deep roots seek out minerals in the subsoil, which are inaccessible to other plants. The average alfalfa plant has a tap root 10 to 20 feet long or more. It's important to get leaves only, and organically grown material, with no over-spray of neighboring field insecticides or herbicides. See what vitamins and minerals are in Alfalfa below. It is called the King of the Plant World.
VITAMINS found in Alfalfa:

Vitamin A - for night vision. Builds resistance to infections, especially in the respiratory tract; promotes growth ands vitality; promotes healthy skin and is essential in pregnancy.

Vitamin E - protects cells against damage from sun's radiation and air pollution; promotes heart, cardiovascular and muscle health and improved immune function; promotes muscle tone in the body; helps bring nutrients to cells and helps strengthen blood vessel walls, including capillary walls; helps proper focusing of the eyes.

Vitamin U - promotes health of body to help overcome peptic ulcers.

Vitamin B6 - helps food assimilation and protein and fat metabolism; promotes nerve and skin health; helps battle nausea symptoms.

Vitamin K - essential for blood clotting; important in liver functions; may possibly contribute to vitality and longevity.

Vitamin D - regulates the use of calcium and phosphorus in the body and is therefore necessary for the proper formation of strong and healthy teeth and bones.

MINERALS found in Alfalfa:

Calcium - builds and maintains bones and teeth; helps clot blood, aids in vitality and endurance; regulates heart rhythm, soothes nerves.

Iron - required in manufacturing hemoglobin; helps carry oxygen in the blood.

Potassium - necessary for normal muscle tone, nerves, heart action and enzyme reactions; digests fats.

Phosphorus - needed for normal bone and tooth structure. Interrelated with action of calcium and Vitamin D. Improves nourishment of nerve tissue.

Chlorine (chloride) - an essential electrolyte which cleans and purifies the body; regulates fat, sugar and starch metabolism.

Sodium - regulates fluid balance throughout body; neutralizes acids, prevents clotting of blood; activates spleen, bowels and stomach functions.

Silicon Magnesium helps body to deal with constipation; steadies the nerves; has protective effect on skin and body; stimulates brain function.

Other properties of alfalfa:

High in protein - alfalfa has 18.9% as compared to beef at 16.5%, milk at 3.3% and eggs at 13.1%. (Muscles are composed of protein and the lack of it results in fatigue and weakness.)

Oxygenation of the cell with exercise and a diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, fruit, Pacific wild-caught salmon and hormone/antibiotic-free chicken along with low stress help maintain a healthy Ph. The new rage is the Green Smoothie. I'll post on that soon, with some recipes. Wheat grass is a great detoxifier, full of chlorophyll and can be juiced in the Omega 8003 Juicer. Mercola sells them for around $235. I saw free shipping on a recent ad there. Here's the web page: http://www.mercola.com/article/juicer_comp.htm
I bought a small Omega juicer a few years ago with a 10 yr. warranty, but the next one will be the Omega 8003. I want to start growing my own wheat grass. Ahh. Gardening! A container in the windowsill will do, but I have a little greenhouse to fix up. You can see the face of it on my

Four years ago, when I waited for my cancer surgery, I juiced and eliminated sugars and most carbs. On Thanksgiving, I made the traditional pecan pie, and thought I could just have one piece. My immune system let me know it was not okay. I got an eye infection the next day. I had to reschedule my surgery. In the winter, I loved hot chocolate, especially by the wood stove. One evening, again waiting for that dreaded surgery, I rationalized that since I had such a good dinner, surely one of those homemade cinnamon rolls and a cup of creamy cocoa would be okay with a base of good food in my stomach. The next day I woke up with a urinary tract infection. It was too easy to tip my PH and my immune system was already maxed. This was a good example of what foods hurt my immune system, (for me, a mixture of dairy and sugar is like poison) and what kind of self care I needed to stay alive. Raising 7 alone, my self care had often taken a back seat. Even now, I tend to be drawn to work or to write or socialize without being serious enough about my own health. I am working on scheduling my time and prioritizing.

Last night I made up a schedule that I will keep in this new year. A key is getting to bed on time. I have overdrawn my sleep bank already tonight. It is said, every death is a suicide. The choices we make every day determine our longevity, and our quality of life. Feel free to share what challenges you face in gaining or maintaining optimal health, and what is working for you. For me, I have been more successful with diet and getting the right food supplements. It helped to have a blood panel to see what nutrients I was low in. I send a Health Survey free of charge to help people determine which vitamins and nutrients they may need, to stay alkaline/acid balanced and healthy. I will help recommend a program for you.
