The main thing to know is our environment pushes us toward being too acidic.

You can understand if you consider our rain has been pushed that direction.

Although there is a danger if you get to alkaline (the opposite of acidic on the pH scale) most everyone is too acidic bc of what we encounter in our daily lives.

Just about every toxin you hear of from auto emissions to microwave and cell phone waves to plastic bottle residue in our society is an acidic toxin.

(An example of an alkaline toxin is lye or bleach - drinking either will mess you up.)

When we are too acidic, which most of us are, our bodies can not keep calcium bound to our bones.

We get osteoporosis and then the displaced calcium causes further problems in the form of artery plaque, kidney and other stones, bone spurs (which lead to arthritis), etc. (Apple juice is great for clearing that stuff out.)

There are many ways to alkalize of you look into it. Some may prefer certain methods/supplements/diets to others.

I take a powder from Swanson Vitamins - they have lots of supplements to alkalize.

I also try to drink good water, you can filter it and add something like Alka-Trace drops to bring up the pH or you can buy, for example, Fiji water which has a pH of 7.5. (Most tap water is too acidic.)

If you want to go hard core with your diet look at the work of Dr. Young at pH Miracle Living . The only contention I have with him is he frames it all about lifestyle choices but I say it's not our choice when the air we breath and water we are provided with are too acidic.

It will probably be a lifelong issue since our environment degrades our pH.

Use sea salt instead of regular salt. Dr. Young's blog has more about that.

Another relatively short book (about 120 pages) that is easy to understand on the subject is The Acidic Danger by Dr. Wolfgang Auer.

Strategies on alkalizing seem to have been around for a very long time. I believe in Japan it is common knowledge to be aware of pH(?)

Lately it seems people are interested in the topic wherever I go

Thanks Jessica

You provided some great info, we will look into it further. Our water (in Winnipeg) actually comes out of the tap at a ph 7.25 to 7.45 and seems to be very consistent. Do to the fact that I also work in the agriculture field and deal with ph I have tested our city water on numerous occasions.

I am hoping that someone may be able to guide us to an area in the EPFX unit that would deal with PH as we have had that come up a number of times under unconcious choices and we can not find anything anywhere on the unit for PH.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

If you go to the HomeoToxicology on the main program menu, then choose bioterrain results (in the upper right hand corner) that is all about pH balance.

Also, if you go to the white search box on the main screen and search one at a time for acid acidity alkaline alkalinity you will find plenty there in relation to pH. He just refers to it as acid and alkalinity instead of pH.

Also, when you go to the virtual doctor button on the main program menu you will see one of the items that can be worked in great depth there is entitled "Water Acid Alk".

I know there are more areas that also address pH, but those are what comes to mind immediately.

Thank You Kevin, we will try these during our next few sessions, greatly appreciated.
