You are correct that the body maintains the blood pH within a very narrow range. It really never gets out of range, the problem is the problems the body creates for itself maintaining this pH. It strips calcium from the bones, it causes overload of the liver and kidneys expelling the acid, and according to the book, it stashes acids away into fat. The book contends that much obesity is caused by the body storing fat simply to be able to stash acids away in the fat. That if the body is not having to do this, it will burn the fat instead. Interesting theory at any rate.

Marshall,
The body alkalization theory has always escaped my understanding except
where an alkaline substance is injected into the bloodstream just
upstream of a tumor causing a localized change pH. The body does an
excellent job of controlling blood pH regardless of what is ingested.
Unless there is an excessive ingestion of acidic substances that
depletes the body's stores of alkalizing substances. Even pH in the
intestinal tract is fairly tightly controlled. Studies measuring pH
along the intestinal tract show surprising small variations of pH
regardless of whether acidic or alkaline substances are ingested. You can measure pH changes in urine or saliva but I think that is
because it is the body's way of releasing excessive amounts of acidic or
alkaline substances and controlling blood pH.

That said, they have determined a link between low urine pH caused by
gout and insulin resistance. Treatment is to raise the urine pH and to
treat the gout. Not sure how that all fits in with the book you have.

I think a better book would be "INFECTIOUS DIABETES" by Doug Kaufmann.
Talk about food for thought! Going further, if diabetes is fungi based
as is the book's premise, this would offer some basis for the use of
sodium chlorite for treating diabetes. My sparse experience with MMS was
with my dog that seemed to develop canine diabetes and I seemed to have
reversed it with sodium chlorite. So far I am intrigued and elated.

I ordered this book and it came yesterday.  It does have some
interesting ideas.  However I am put off by his inaccurate or
incomplete
descriptions of some of the protocols he says to do.  For instance, I
was interested in the alkalinized water as a starting point. On page
68
he says: "combine one quart of water with 16 drops of sodium
chlorite..".  Now first of all sodium chlorite is a solid, not a
liquid,
so this seemed a rather odd way of expressing it.  So before
converting
drops to grams and trying it I did some figuring first.  That works
out
to be approximately 1 gram, and if you drink 4 quarts in a day, would
end up being 4 grams.  Having had experience with MMS, I knew that was
a
huge amount, about 20 times the maximum I was able to work up to in a
day, and over 100 times what I was able to initially take in a day
without digestive problems.  So I checked the msds, and found that the
lethal dosage is less than 4 times that amount.  The amount
recommended
would certainly put anyone in the hospital at best, and possibly kill
them at worst.

So, I checked the index for sodium chlorite to see if he talks about
it
anywhere else, and found he once again mentions it on page 88   There
he
says to "add 16 drops per liter of 2 percent sodium chlorite
solution".
Ahh, now he has it right.  The first place I read his recommendation
produced a concentration 50 times what he was really wanting.
Fortunately I had enough experience with this compound to realize that
something was wrong with the first place he gives the information, but
others may not be so fortunate.

But now I am puzzled.  Sodium chlorite (NaClO2) is truly highly
alkaline.  But it breaks down into chlorious acid in the stomach,
which
then breaks down into NaCl and O2 eventually.  So how does this
improve
your body's pH? NaCl is plain old table salt.
