Some Examples for pH imbalance vs traditional Causes

Traditional Blood pHBeta Cells in the pancreas produce insulin to utilize the glucose in the blood. If insulin is not produced as per the requirement, the shortfall is made up by tablets or insulin injection.

Due to fall in the pH , beta cells are degenerated, starved and debilitated due to the accumulation of toxins. Restored pH helps revitalised beta cells and improve efficiency, whereby dependence on medication reduces.

Case of Diabetes

Traditional Blood pHGallstone once formed cannot be flushed out. Removal of gall bladder is the only recourse.

Fall in the blood pH results in the fall in the pH of bile. Acidic bile in turn creates inflammation in the gall bladder. Bile now accumulates in the gall bladder and stones are formed. On restoring the alkaline, inflammation vanishes. Stones disintegrate and are flushed out.

Golden rule of health

• To restore health, the diet should consist of 80% alkaline-forming foods and 20% acid-forming foods.

• To maintain health, the diet should consist of 60% alkaline-forming foods and 40% acid forming foods.

• Alkaline-forming foods include fruits, vegetables, milk, Ragi & sprouts.

• Acid-forming foods are meat, fish, poultry, eggs, grains, legumes, fried food.

Culpable Homicide Not Amounting to MurderThe efficacy of food takes over acidosis only if you say “NO, that too hundred percent, to the following poisons (foods) without compromise.

1. Refined Sugar : for de-coloring corrosive chemicals like phosphoric acid, mono-calcium phosphate, tri-calcium phosphate, marine blue etc. are used.

2. Refined oil : refining involves the use of hydrochloric acid (for protection of oil from getting rancid) and to neutralise HCL, sodium hydroxide (NaoH) is used a little excessively.

3. Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil : HCL and NaoH are used which destroys natural vitamins and minerals and is fortified with chemically synthesized vitamins. It finds entry in system through tasty ready-made with foods viz. cakes, biscuits, bread, outside fried food, ice-creams etc.

4. Bakery Products : Made with HVO and consumers are lured by the misleading words - use of nutritious options like ragi, wholegrain, high protein, high fiber etc.

Culpable Homicide Not Amounting to Murder

5. Tea and Coffee : “Tannic acid in tea contributes to hardening of blood vessels and tissues. Coffee has a high percentage of caffeine and has tannin too and is acidic in nature.

6. Pickle and Papad : An ingredient called ‘papadkhar’ is mixed with gram flour while making papads. High salt consumption drives alkaline reserves of calcium out of our body. Pickles available in the market are infested with gov. approved preservatives like sodium benzonate/benzoic acid etc.

7. Permitted Colors, Flavors and Preservatives : Above said preservatives and various chemicals used to create false taste of vanilla (vanillin), cherry (benzaldehyde), pineapple (ethyl butyrate-used for treating leather), grape (methyl anthranilate- used for coloring plastic materials).

8. Soft Drinks : Contains aspartame. 20mgs of calcium is destroyed to neutralize 1 litre bottled, aerated cold drink.

Eight simple rules to save your health for a long time: 1. Do not eat a lot of food with animal and fish protein. Our body

prefers bacterial protein produced by our symbiotic microbiota.

2. Take in appropriate quantity of mineral at ionic forms. Fresh fruits and vegetables are full of them, but be careful if you’ll take in large quantity of such food, especially for a long time – there is a risk of Liver damage with digestive inhibitors (everybody wants to be alive and plants are not exclusions).

Eight simple rules to save your health for a long time: 3. Use spore probiotics with Bacillus subtilis and

Bacillus licheniformis bacteria. These symbiotic bacteria will save you from negative influence of digestive imbalance.

4. To activate Stomach and Duodenal suck a pair of sea salt crystals a one hour before meal. Do the same right after a meal. Do not drink anything during the meal. Do not drink liquids one hour before and after a meal.

Eight simple rules to save your health for a long time: 5. Drink more pure water between meals.

6. Eat more plant fibers to feed your symbiotic microflora. They’ll obliged to you with more quantity of ideally balanced protein and vitamins.

7. Avoid fast carbs, roast food, processed vegetable oils, food with preservatives.

“In the old days the sages treated disease by preventing illness before it began, just

as a good government or emperor was able to take the necessary steps to avert war. Treating an illness after it has begun

is like suppressing revolt after it has broken out. If someone digs a well only

when thirsty, or forges weapons only after becoming engaged in battle, one cannot

help but ask:

“Aren’t these actions too late?”

Diet as per blood groupSimplest way to eat is according to your blood group

Could eating a diet based on your blood type -- O, A, B, or AB -- help you trim down and get healthier? That's the idea behind the Blood Type Diet.

Researchers claims that the foods you eat react chemically with your blood type. If you follow a diet designed for your blood type, your body will digest food more efficiently. You'll lose weight, have more energy, and help prevent disease.

Type A blood: A meat-free diet based on fruits and vegetables, beans and legumes, and whole grains -- ideally, organic and fresh, because it is said people with type A blood have a sensitive immune system.

Type B blood: Avoid corn, wheat, buckwheat, lentils, tomatoes, peanuts, and sesame seeds. Chicken is also problematic. Encourages eating green vegetables, eggs, certain meats, and low-fat dairy.

Type AB blood: Foods to focus on include tofu, seafood, dairy, and green vegetables. People with type AB blood tend to have low stomach acid. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and smoked or cured meats.

Type O blood: A high-protein diet heavy on lean meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables, and light on grains, beans, and dairy.
