Still Acidic? Time For Your Acid Test
What happens to our tissue pH after we die?
Then, while the earth shall be cast upon the Body by some standing by, the Priest shall say, “Forasmuch as it hath pleased Almighty God of his great mercy to take unto himself the soul of our dear brother here departed, we therefore commit his body to the ground; earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust; in sure and certain hope of the Resurrection to eternal life, through our Lord Jesus Christ; who shall change our vile body, that it may be like unto his glorious body, according to the mighty working, whereby he is able to subdue all things to himself.” (from the Book of Common Prayer)
As we go through life and age, we move from alkaline to increasingly acidic, preparing our bodies for decomposition. Every fluid has a pH reading ranging from 1-14 on a standardized acid alkaline scale. The lower the number, then the greater the acidity. The higher the number the less acidic and more basic (alkaline) that substance is found to be.
Acidic byproducts are produced from our metabolism and when we exercise. Biochemically speaking the pH is the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration in a fluid. The source of hydrogen ions in human fluids are from volatile acids that vary from liquid and gaseous states and acidic byproducts produced from normal metabolism and exercise. So inevitably our bodies are always trending toward acidity.
As you are aware, your body is made up of solids and fluids. As we become sicker and more diseased (notice I did not just say older) we dehydrate, becoming less fluid and more acidic. In other words our pH number drops when we take a saliva test. Saliva is closely connected with your blood stream, and if collected correctly will give a very accurate account of global tissue ph. The proper collection procedure is to have the patient produce saliva prior to eating or brushing their teeth. Ask them to spit this saliva out and collect the “deeper” less tainted batch as your sampling. Submerge a sterile standardized pH strip ranging from 4.0-9.0 in the sample for 10 seconds. Allow to oxidize and read within 30 seconds.
A healthy, happy, and well-functioning human being is found to have tissue and fluid pH that ranges between 6.8 and 7.25. As found in The Manual of Laboratory & Diagnostic Tests pp 848 normal values for arterial blood were 7.35-7.45 and venous blood (carrying waste products away from cells in our body) was more acidic averaging 6.31-7.41. The pH of human urine varies but averages about 4.6 to 8 commonly. I refrain from using urine pH as a progress marker because of how much it varies. I have experienced only 2 Boot campers (out of over 1000) who through the process of detoxification and repair made themselves too alkaline… bizarre but true. Their pH readings were constantly over 8+. A true rarity in such an acidic disease-stroking society. Both of these individuals developed urinary tract infections which were corrected by using olive leaf extract, cranberry extract, and believe it or not my favorite asparagus.
I find it very difficult if not impossible to accelerate the tissue healing process or metabolize body fat off boot campers whose global pH reading is less than 6.5. Reducing your body’s alkalinity is crucial to your success in fighting illness and restoring your body to optimal health.
I do not know why your MD would not perform such a simple test! It is standard practice in Harvard medical school to test bodily fluid pH for diagnostic purposes. Yet doctors are are not trained to be proactive in keeping you healthy so it doesn’t even cross their mind.
The scale that is used for measuring the pH is the hydrogen ion concentration of liquid with ranges from 0 to 14– 7 being the neutral point. Below 7 is acidic; above 7 is alkaline. The optimal pH of the body’s fluids, such as the blood urine, is 7.4, slightly alkaline. Outside of this range the body’s activity is no longer optimal and the metabolism is out of balance. In other words you want to maintain a body pH of as close to 7.4 as possible.
Nobel laureate, Dr. Otto Warburg of Germany, won his Nobel Prize for his discovery of oxygen deficiency in the CANCER growth process. As stated above, when pH is off and our bodies are running more acidic, our cells are getting less oxygen. Cancer thrives under an acid tissue pH/oxygen deficient environment!
Is it any wonder today that cancer rates are up? As the pH of the blood becomes more acidic, fatty acids which are normally electro-magnetically charged on the negative side now switch to positive and are automatically attracted to and begin to stick to the walls of arteries which are electro-magnetically charged on the negative side. (And as science states, opposites attract.) It should start to make sense that a society which over-emphasizes food that could push blood to be more acidic will have a high rate of heart disease.
In a free range chicken, the white of the egg has a pH of 9 (highly alkaline). The yoke of the egg has a pH of 6.5 (slightly acidic). The white of the egg with a pH of 9 acts as a protective cloak shielding the yolk from bacteria, viruses, and fungi while it’s structure, bearing the Hydrogen Matrix, brings forth life and participates in the millions of cells forming the body of the new baby chicken. Like the egg when the fluids of the human body are maintained at a healthy alkaline level of 7.4, the body is protected from bacteria, viruses and fungi as well as bringing forth the life-giving form inherent within the hydrogen matrix. I know that might sound a little “new age” to some of you, but keep in mind that God is a God of order.
So What is Making you so Acidic? The Top Five Acid Triggers
1) Pharmaceutical Drugs
By nature synthetic drugs are very acidic. Acidic enough to burn holes in the users throat, upper GI tract, liver and bowels. All drugs, whether over the counter or prescription, are incredibly acidic. Take a drug and check your blood sugar 15 minutes later and watch it trigger a major toxic threat spike! You will always struggle with your acid levels and blood sugars if you continue to take these synthesized GMO based products.
2) Sports drinks, diet sodas, and fruit drinks full of phosphoric acid
10 million pounds of phosphoric acid is produced in the United States every year. Most of it is used to created corrosive cleaners, chemical detergents, and fertilizers. Some of it ends up in our children’s mouths. Phosphoric acid burns the taste buds right off the tongue leaving the person with only two levels of tastes: the extremely salty and the extremely sweet.
Imagine that! In the steel industry phosphoric acid is used to clean and rust proof the product. In the beverage industry it is used as a flavoring agent in carbonated beverages! In chemical reactions phosphoric acid binds to Calcium and Magnesium to form complexes or chelates. Remember this fact. Ingestion of phosphoric acid can lead to tissue necrosis (death) within the upper and lower GI tract.
The phosphoric acid commonly found in sodas has a pH of 2.5 which is 100,000 times more acidic than a healthy human body. Now that schools are being subsidized by large soda companies dentists are noticing a condition in teenagers that used to be found only in the elderly–a complete loss of enamel on the teeth, resulting in stained and yellow teeth (much like that of a child using antibiotics). The ADA is placing blame on phosphoric acid in soft drinks for accelerating decay of the tooth enamel and causing bone loss of the regional gum lines. Normally, the saliva of a healthy human is slightly alkaline (7.25), but when a soda enters the oral cavity, the pH of the environment violently drops becoming dangerously acidic. It is the phosphoric acid found within the soda that causes this brutal drop in the pH! In order to “buffer” this acidic saliva and bring the pH back up to 7.0, the body pulls Mg and Ca ions from the surrounding teeth and jaw line.
This results in a very rapid depletion of the enamel coating of the teeth. When dentists perform cosmetic bonding they first damage the teeth making them rough to hold the epoxy. They do this by applying… would you believe…phosphoric acid! I wonder if this is why we are finding so many soda drinking teenage girls with advancing brittle bone disease since their bodies are depleted of Calcium. If phosphoric acid is within the top five ingredients of the product you are considering purchasing or consuming, place it back on the self upside down to warn others of the damage it will cause.
Here are pH levels of common foods we are feeding to our families! Keep in mind the pH of battery acid is 1 and the pH of your MBC blade is 10.0 (highly alkaline!)
If you wish to effectively make your bones brittle and create a broken brain or rotted teeth, please drink the following:
Black instant coffee 5.5
Root Beer 4.6
Tomato Juice 4.5
Lemon Lime Soda 3.7
Juicy Juice 3.5
Apple Juice 3.4
Orange Juice 3.3
Vegetable Juice 3.1
Fruit Punch 2.7
Cola 2.5
Lemonade from Mix 2.5
3) Bleached flour, sugar, and coffee filters
4) Canned tomatoes, microwave popcorn, traditional table salt, and margarine
5) Excessive Exercise: Hey aerobic queen. Stop the madness. More than 2 hours of cardiovascular training per week has been linked to increased body acid levels and reduced bone density levels.
So what can I do about all these acidic triggers I inevitably consume now and then?
MBC Acid Neutralizing Protocols
If you find your body to be very acidic or under 7.0 pH:
- Increase L-Glutamine in AM Detox Cleanser to 2 Tablespoons
- Limit the consumption of fluids that have a pH reading below 5.0
- Avoid all energy drinks, diet and regular sodas, coffee, or fruit drinks (particularly those with High Fructose Corn Syrup)
- Use the PM Detox Cleanser, the most powerful acid reducer in the MBC protocols!
- Use only MBC Toothpaste at least twice a day.
- Consider using only baking soda-based or natural salts-based deodorants/antiperspirants.
Effective natural deodorants are not easy to find. Here are links to some good ones:
