Expert Facts On The Health Alkaline Lifestyle by Paulo Freitag

ccording to a study published in The Journal of International Medical Research, increasing body pH level lowers the risk of bladder infections and reduces symptoms of cystitis. International Journal of Integrative Medicine1 shows that the excess acid load promoting metabolic acidosis is acquired by 3 factors: 1. Dietary choices (excess protein, fat, phosphate/phosphoric acid, and sulphate/ sulphuric acid); 2. Maladaptation to stress (distress-induced excess cortisol and adrenaline); 3. Immune hypersensitivity (delayed allergy) reactions. Dr. Elson M. Haas confirms: “The acidity in the body tissues arises from the over intake of too many acid-causing foods. This acidity causes the breakdown and degeneration of tissues overtime.” 2 As stated in another article on this site, Dr. Otto Warburg3 was awarded two Nobel prizes for his theories that cancer is caused by impaired cell respiration due to a lack of oxygen at the cellular level. According to Dr. Warburg, damaged cell respiration causes fermentation, resulting in hyper-acidity at the cellular level. Doctors, Susan E. Brown and Russell Jaffe4 have both confirmed that bone responds to an acid load by dissolving its basic buffering mineral salts. They call osteoporosis as a “hidden tax of high-tech living.” The American Institute for Cancer Research and the World Cancer Research Fund call for choosing predominantly plant-based diets5 rich in a variety of vegetables and fruits, legumes, and minimally processed starchy staple foods

and limiting red meat consumption, if red meat is eaten at all. The American Heart Association recommends choosing a balanced diet with an emphasis on vegetables, grains, and fruits6 and the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada recommends using grains and vegetables instead of meat as the key focus of meals.7 “Paying attention to acid-alkaline balance is one of the most crucial ways you can affect your health status,” says Dr. Susan Lark,8 “It impacts immunity, digestion, bone strength, symptoms of joint disease, hormones, and the function of essential internal organs.”

A Cambridge University study9 shows “the available research makes a compelling case that diet-induced acidosis, not dietinduced acidaemia, is a real phenomenon, and has a significant, clinical, long-term pathophysiological effect that should be recognised and potentially counterbalanced by dietary means. The facts are there and they are convincing to live the health alkaline lifestyle. It’s easy. All we have to do make the right food choices. Get started today.
