150 degenerative diseases are linked to acidity

 

Scientists have found that healthy people have body fluids that are

slightly alkaline, 7.1 to 7.5 pH. Scientists and doctors have also

found that over 150 degenerative diseases are linked to acidity,

including cancer, diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, gall and kidney

stones, and many more. All diseases thrive in an acidic, oxygen poor

environment.

 

Keep in mind that a drop in every point on the pH scale is10x more

acidic than the previous number--i.e. from 7 to 6 is 10x, from 7 to 5

is 100x etc. From 7 to 2 is 100,000x more acidic, colas are in the

approximate 2.5 pH range. Almost no soda(pop) is higher than 3.0.

Diet sodas are the worst as they have the highest acid content.

Actually diet sodas cause you to gain weight because they alter the

blood chemistry, making changes in your metabolism, leading to a

slower metabolic rate. See our article on Aspartame. The best liquid

to drink is water.

 

Almost everything we do including our life styles and our diets push

us into the acidic range: proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are all

digested down to acids. Even metabolic functions and exercise create

some acids (lactic acid). Body fluids range between 4.5 and 7.5 pH

(Your blood must maintain an alkaline range of 7.35 to 7.45 pH). So

even our natural functions produce acids, and if we do not get the

proper minerals in the proper forms, our bodies will begin to

degenerate. When you drink soda, the deterioration will be much

faster.

 

Can Cola & Sodas Kill?

Over the long term the effects of colas are devastating to the body.

Acidity, sugars, and artificial flavors and sweeteners can shorten

your life. It would take 32 glasses of alkaline water at an alkaline

pH of 9 to neutralize the acid from one 12 oz. cola or soda. When you

drink a cola or soda, the body will use up reserves of its own stored

alkaline buffers, mainly calcium from the bones and DNA, to raise the

body's alkalinity levels, especially to maintain proper blood

alkaline pH levels. Acidic blood levels cause death! There are enough

acids in one soda to kill you if you didn't possess a mechanism to

neutralize them. But your mineral buffers can be used up.

 

The reason it is so bad, is that soda, like water and other liquids,

pass very quickly through the stomach into the small intestine where

it is quickly assimilated into the bloodstream through the openings

in the villi in the walls of the intestines.They can also be absorbed

right through the stomach's lining directly into the blood. Liquids

do not stay in the digestive tract like solid food does. All liquids

go into the bloodstream, is filtered through the liver and the

kidneys, and what is not needed is sent to the bladder and urinated

out. But these liquids come in contact with virtually every cell in

your body.

 

When a substance is an acid, it means that there are a large number

of positively charged hydrogen ions in it. These positively charged

ions are lacking electrons and steal electrons from other atoms in

the body which themselves become electrically unstable and seek other

electrons from other atoms. Acids are free radicals and what you've

just created is a chain reaction of electron stealing. The problem

with this is that whenever an electron is torn from an atom a little

spark is produced, and this is what damages cell membranes. It's

called free radical damage and can be seen under a microscope in a

live blood cell analysis.

 

If you have enough minerals the body can stop the process. But when

you use up the supply of available minerals to neutralize the acids,

at that point you may get a very serious degenerative disease. Every

soda that you drink will contribute to this acidity. Even without

soda our bodies naturally produce acids, and minerals are needed in

our diets to stop the deterioration process. Unfortunately, most of

the food that we eat no longer contains the minerals that we need.

This may be the reason for all the degenerative diseases that are so

prevalent today.

 

 

Most degenerative diseases we call " Old-Age Diseases " like memory

loss, osteoporosis, arthritis, diabetes, hypertension, and many more

are actually life style diseases caused by acidosis, the lack of

supplements, what acids we ingest, what nutrients we don't ingest, or

toxins we don't properly eliminate.
