Exotic Juices

[Guest guest]

Lots of people are always asking about these juices and so I thought I

would post this info I just got.

A must read: The truth about exotic juices!

Mangosteen, Noni, Goji, Xango, Thia-Go, G3 are ALL Acidic and

Detrimental to Health

Because there is so much buzz out there about Goji Juice and other

exotic drinks, we are forwarding you an excerpt from a recent e-mail

from Dr. Young. It is a very good read and one which everyone who

understands the importance of an alkaline approach to optimal heath

should be familiar with so the information can be shared with those

being misled about the health benefits of these drinks.

Mangosteen, Noni, Goji, Xango, Thai-Go, G3 and other fruit juices claim to

provide nutritional health benefits, or do they? I have tested all of these

so-called nutritional health drinks and they are all highly acidic at a pH

ranging from 2.5 to 3.0 with an ORP (oxidative reduction potential for

buffering acids and providing body energy) ranging from +250 mV to +450 mV.

All of these so-called nutritional health beverages would have the same

toxic acidic effects as drinking an acidic cola drink at a pH of 2.5

with an

ORP at +250 mV. Great for cleaning the corrosion off the battery cables of

your car, but destructive to the digestive system and especially the

delicate intestinal villi of the small intestine where blood is made. All

of these exotic, proton rich fruits and fruit drinks will pull energy from

your body robbing you of needed electrons to keep your body running healthy

and strong.

The reason that products such as Mangosteen, Xango, Goji and Noni seem more

attractive is because the ingredients are " exotic " and most people just

don't know much about the ingredients. The truth is that these exotic

fruits

and fruit juices are generally pasturized, full of sugar, and will acidify

the blood and tissues making you sick, tired and fat! Whatever little

nutritional value they might claim to offer is lost in their saturation of

hydrogen ions making these beverages void of any nutritional or energetic

value!

Yes, there is some research on xanthones, a phytochemical found in

Mangosteen, Xango, Goji, Noni, but the scientific interpretations are

incorrect. The phytochemical xanthone is a potent anti-acid by itself.

But, the value of the xanthones found in these exotic fruits are not

sufficient enough to neutralize the high concentrations of acidic hydorgen

ions, leaving these beverages highly acidic at 2.5 to 3.0 pH and deficient

of any energy value at +250 mV and up.

I would suggest looking at the published research on bioflavonoids (lutein,

zeaxanthin, lycopene, luctein, beta-carotene, and over 600 more of them),

polyphenols (which include proanthocyandins, anthocyanidins, catechins,

etc), indole-3-carbinol and sulfurophane (broccoli extract and cruciferous

vegetables), iridoids (mainly found in olive fruit), not to mention all the

vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants naturally found in electron rich

fruits

and vegetables. The list could go on and on and on. Nearly all of these

compounds are found in the nutritional supplement that are in " The

Comparative Guide To Nutritional Supplements " and in our book, The pH

Miracle for Weight Loss. You could literally pull up hundreds of thousands

of studies on all of these phytochemicals.

Xanthones may have beneficial properties in the right concentrations but it

is only one compound among thousands that have well-researched benefits. If

people think they are getting some miraculous compound, secret juice or

magic formula, they are being misinformed. What they are getting is a

highly

acidic, enervating fruit juice that will increase the acidic state of the

body and damage the delicate alkaline pH of the digestive and circulatory

system. Add mangosteen, Noni, Goji or Xango fruit or juice to your

current vitamin/mineral regimen and expect short term benefits from the

acidic

laxative affect and long term damage to the small intestine and large

intestine. Eventually the acidic damage done to the small intestine will

affect the quality of the blood that will in turn affect that quality and

health of every cell in the human body. This can then lead to a serious

health challenge. The nutritional health benefits of these exotic fruits

are

highly exaggerated and misleading.

Bottom line: stay away from all these exotic fruits and fruit drinks. They

are all acidic and by drinking them you put your health and fitness at

risk!
