I just read this article tonight and I thought of this thread...
*Balance Your pH
**by Dr. Hulda Clark*
The ends of your feet get the poorest "service" from your blood supply.
They are the furthest away. The blood here has the most accumulated acid
and the least oxygen supply....The accumulation of uric and hippuric
acid invites bacteria to feed on them. As bacteria multiply the tissue
fights back with inflammation. Now the stage has been set for pain.
Most persons with painful deposits anywhere in their feet have a morning
urine pH of 4.5! At 4.5 it is safe to guess that a lot (of uric acid )
has precipitated (in the feet) again in the night. During the day, your
body's pH swings back and forth. The urine gets quite alkaline right
after a meal; this is called the alkaline tide. Three meals a day would
bring you three alkaline tides. During these periods, lasting about an
hour, you have an opportunity to dissolve some of your foot deposits.
But if you allow your pH to drop too low in the night you put the
deposits back again. The net effect decides whether your deposits grow
or shrink. To alkalinize yourself at bedtime, choose one of these options:
1.Two oyster shell tablets, equaling 750 mg. of calcium plus a magnesium
oxide tablet, 300 mg (see Sources). The magnesium helps the calcium
dissolve and stay in solution. Taking more calcium at one time is not
advised because it cannot be dissolved and absorbed anyway and might
constipate you. For the elderly only one calcium tablet is advised. Take
calcium tablets with vitamin C or lemon water to help dissolve (1/4 tsp.
vitamin C powder; adding honey is fine).
2.One cup of sterilized milk or buttermilk, drunk hot or cold, plus I
magnesium oxide tablet, 300 mg. (adding cinnamon is fine).If these two
remedies work for you, your morning urinary pH will come up to 6.0 but
if for some reason they don't, you need to take more drastic measures.
Take the supplements and milk earlier in the day and reserve bedtime for:
3.1/2 tsp. baking soda in water. This is sodium bicarbonate. But don't
use baking soda from a store because most brands I have tested are
polluted with benzene! Using a combination of sodium and potassium
bicarbonate in a ratio of 2:1 is actually a much more healthful potion.
You can make your own or ask a pharmacist to make it for you. Mix two
parts baking soda and one part potassium bicarbonate in a jar. Keep
tightly closed. Label it sodium Potassium bicarbonate alkalizer (this
potion is also very useful in allergic reactions of all kinds). Take I
level tsp. in water at bedtime. If your pH reaches 6 in the morning
continue each night at this dose. If it does not, take 1 1/2 tsp. Keep
watching your pH, since it will gradually normalize and you will require
less and less. If you are using plain baking soda, instead of the
mixture, watch your pH each morning, also, so you can cut back when the
pH goes higher than 6.
Persons with a limit on their daily sodium intake must care-fully count
the grams of baking soda consumed in this way. Each tsp. weighs about 2
grams, of which half (I gram or I 000 milligrams) is sodium. The
sodium/potassium mixture would only give you half as much sodium
(1/2gram per tsp.). By comparison, the usual daily intake of sodium is
about 5 gm., although salt eaters consume twice that amount. You have
done five things to pull the rug out from under the bacteria living in
and around the deposits in your toes. Now when you kill bacteria with
your zapper, you can expect the pain to go away and stay away.
Locations at the base of toes may be painful due to a neuroma. Deposits
and bacteria here are even more painful because this is the location of
nerve centers. If the build-up is large, you may prefer some surgical
help or a cortisone shot rather than wait several years for solid relief.

I have read a lot of commercial hype but not a single serious

No. I am ready to try just about anything to get old uric acid stones
out of my feet. I can stop new stones from forming but can't get rid
of old stones that have dropped into my feet. I am on my 5th day using
foot pads and last night I started to get a foot itch but it did not
turn on full itch. I was able to go back to sleep even with the itch.
I know a person that just had a toe surgically removed as blood
circulation had nearly stopped. Her DR said the toe was full of kidney
stones.
See Nenahs web site for sources. I suspect the Japanese use the foot
pads because they work and do not have to prove it by a double blind
study costing millions of dollars. I bought 30 patches for a two week
treatment. 10 more days I can say what my results are.
