Hi Melly:
First and foremost, the soft tissues of the body cannot be acidic. The
alkaline minerals needed to balance biochemistry, in acidic tissue
environments, are used up nuetralizing acidic waste. This greatly impacts the
body's ability to adsorb nutrients at a cellular level.
Since I spent so much money for testing, I obstained from mineral
supplementation. I was testing the biochemical effects of excessive sulphur
supplementation (MSM) and studying the effect of ozone therapy on my
biochemistry.
There are many factors that can influence the pH of soft tissues in the body.
I list a few below:
1. Digestive failure - undigested foods, lack of HCL production in the
stomach, lack of digestive enzymes, poor diet - Using a good quality edible
clay and high quality natural probiotics to repair digestion greatly assists.
2. Free radical damage - Low cellular levels of antioxidants... Particularly,
lack of production of glutathione at a cellular level, and fatty acid
imbalance. Poor diet can be a big contributory factor. Supplementation with
superfoods and the master antioxidants can greatly help, as well as making
sure you get a balanced ratio of Omega 6 and Omega 3's in-body (a ratio of
4:1).
3. Systemic infections, including but not limited to Lyme Disease and Candida
overgrowth (or any yeast/fungal infection). Many pathogenic organisms thrive
in acidic environments, and in turn, produce even more acidic waste.
4. Toxicity - Severe toxicity can impair mitochondrial function, severly
inhibiting the ATP production cycle. Mitochondrial failure can result in
metabolic failure, where the muscles in the body have severe disfunction in
energy conversion. The result can be a switch from aerobic to anaerobic
metabolism, which results in the production of more lactic acid waste.
Here's a basic introduction to soft tissue pH balancing:
http://www.greenclays.com/earthcures/ph-connection-symphony-biochemistry-understanding-soft-tissue-ph-levels/
..however, it is really one article in a series of articles, some of which
haven't been written yet!
The general basic idea is to first flush all of the acids out of the body that
are in the circulatory system and lymphatic system. High quality water, and
alkalizing whole foods, while starting to tackle the fundamental cause of
imbalance (such as working on digestive system repair).
Once this is done, the next step is to flush acidic waste from generally stored
in-body and in-tissue (but generally speaking, extracellular). One can simply
eat a great diet with plenty of great water, and let the body slowly cleanse,
or one can use a substance such as MSM, which starts to flush acidic waste.
The last step is intracellular work. One of the best ways is to use cell salt
therapy, or any high quality sea mineral treatment. Again, not doing things in
the proper order will result in only partial success, and often times, a whole
world of herxing. Cell salt or sea mineral therapy is only cellularly
effective when the soft tissue pH is very close to neutral, otherwise the
alkaline minerals are spent nuetralizing the acidity.
Other great ideas include things like systemic enzyme therapy.
Kind Regards,
Jason

Jason,
Thank you very much for disspelling the info about lemon leaching
minerals. This makes me happy as i stay away from lemon juice out of fear of
losing my minerals, Citrus and pineapple juice also lowers blood pressure,
How do you keep your minerals balanced?
Melly
