Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Went to the link and found it VERY interesting. Found out a few weeks ago that I have sleep apnea. I'm pretty sure that my sister, who also has MS, has apnea too. I'm spending the night in a sleep clinic next week. We both had rather late onset MS and the apnea symptoms are most likely due to decreased muscle tone with age. I hope my symptoms will improve when it's corrected and I'm not oxygen-deprived for 1/3 of my life. When I was diagnosed about 6 years ago I read everything I could get my hands on, but I've been dealing with my grandson's Autism for the last five years (sucessfully) and kind of slacked off on the MS research since the LDN seemed to be stabilizing both my sister and I. You've got me fired up again. Thanks, Mari To: mscured From: mellis01@... Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2009 05:51:30 +0000 Subject: pH I've been a member for a month, this is my first posting.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Welcome to MScured. You may need a box full of tools before you get this problem repaired. I used to eat a raw food diet trying to get my pH in check. I ended up with alkaline blood. Go figure! There is no quick fix that I have found but there has been slow progress. Here is a site that you might find interesting. It's about the lack of oxygen causing all disease. This is by a lymphologist, the late Dr. West, and he postulated that disease CAN be cured quickly and easily. Instructional DVDs are available here. I have not tried this. http://www.ial.org/lymphcourses.php > > I've been a member for a month, this is my first posting.

I've been " trying on " the pH theory of health for the last two years to see if fact is as good as the theory. It seems to be. > Hi Mike and welcome, I agree with ...you have more than one tool, so don't limit yourself to one theory of health. I do believe pH is a factor, and I do believe that special diets can raise pH and give health benefits. I also believe that is one of the reasons the Master Cleanse is beneficial. The lemons are very alkalinizing. However, the evidence that lectins play in stimulation of the immune system and molecular mimicry is something to take seriously and is part of the diet strategy. Also, any diet which recommends supplementation of Vitamin D, like the BBD, should have some success with MS'ers. The geographical data on MS clearly shows the role of Vit D deficiency and a recent study found that many people taking an average of 14,000IU daily had less exacerbations. I lived in Alaska for almost 10 years without supplementation and there's very little doubt that played a role in my case. So......there are lots of ways to go about this. And I really think that every method is, in its own way, helping to bring the body back into balance. Or at least closer than it was. Which would explain why so many different techniques have varying degrees of success. As for myself, I started with BBD. Shortly after, I added acupuncture. Then I tried fasting. Then more cleansing and detox. I still do all those things. Right now I'm on Day 7 of a 10-day Master Cleanse. Next on my agenda are oil pulling and a parasite cleanse. Oh yeah, I also tried a 3-week course of minocycline per Dr. Perlmutter. Maybe I was experiencing die-off, not sure. But I certainly felt like crap for most of the 3 weeks!

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Happy puckering! I actually noticed more results a few days after I did the cleanse. I didn't realize the changes because once the symptoms are gone you tend to not think about them until they return. I had swollen feet yesterday and I haven't had them for awhile. I don't have them today. I got a supply of Green Pasture's High Vitamin Butter Oil and Pure Cod Liver Oil yesterday afternoon and I took some when it arrived. I took it again this morning. Could that be the reason? Who knows, but I'm not going to stop now! Right now I'm on Day 7 of a 10-day Master Cleanse. Next on my agenda are oil pulling and a parasite cleanse.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Mike, I think you are on to something. My primary issue with MS is UTI. I have been following an alchaline diet for over a month now and I think it is helping to prevent those nasty things. The only pH levels I test for are urine. Thanks for your input.

Now I'm switching it up with a lime and it's making me pucker. I also tend to notice stuff afterwards. I've been feeling a bit icky since yesterday. Probably detox stuff as I felt bad on days 6 & 7 on my first as well. Tongue is still pretty yucky. Very, very cold this time around too.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 " Mike, I think you are on to something. " (and /Crystal/Marilyn), I don't KNOW that I'm on to anything, but the referenced website set off a light bulb. Paying attention to my pH has made a difference in my health over the last two years. The radical end of the pH theory claims you can even reverse cancer without chemical poison or radiation, so it seemed appropriate to bring it up for discussion here. The theory's appeal to me, other than the fact that it seems to actually work, is that it's a viable alternative to the germ theory of disease, which has brought all of us collectively to where we are today in terms of health, i.e., a big contradiction. Thanks for the feedback. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Antoine Bechamp and his discovery of pleomorphism links the terrain to disease. Why you have an acidic terrain is what you could try to figure out. Diet is only one aspect, toxemia is another. pH is VERY important. I don't believe in the germ theory either. > > " Mike, I think you are on to something.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 You can test your saliva and urine with pH strips but you need to do an arterial blood test to see what your blood pH is. It has to be done in a lab. I did it at a local hospital. It hurts like he**. The strips can be purchased at most drug stores and can be used at home. They generally have a guide to tell you what your pH is. Dr. Theodore Baroody wrote a book, " Alkalize or Die " , that is a good resource or there is a ton of information on the Internet. > > > So how do you test for PH, and where is the best place to go for information on how to correct it?

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 So how do you test for PH, and where is the best place to go for information on how to correct it? Marilyn, I buy test strips from a company called pH ion. They have a website. I first looked at the local drugstore, but all they had were strips that turned either red or blue. pH ion's strips are graduated so you can see where you are across the spectrum. Each pack of strips comes with an instruction booklet that tells you more than you want to know about how to test. I think the last batch I bought cost $12/pack of 80 strips, plus S & H. There are probably other companies that sell them, that's simply where I get mine. As for where you go to get info on how to modify your pH, the world is at your Internet feet. Search pH and health. Search alkalizing diet or alkalizing foods. Search body pH. As nearly as I can tell, Dr. O. Young is the leading spokesperson for the idea, but he's certainly not the only one. Search his name. Search pleomorphism (as opposed to monomorphism, which is the germ theory of disease). My primary method for keeping my pH around 7.0 is through supplements. I buy three concoctions from a company, and the one that is tailored to raise pH includes (per powdered teaspoon)10,000 iu of Vitamin A, 800 iu of D3, 400 mg calcium, 450 mg magnesium, 500 mg potassium. Someone else worked out the science, I just take it, and it works. I haven't mentioned the company because I'm not here to endorse, and for all I know there are better products out there at a better price. Search pH supplements. Google returns 8.8 million hits in 0.22 seconds. Read as much as you can, pick one that sounds good, try it out for a few months. But first find out where you are with the strips. I also spritz with hydrogen peroxide after showering. I haven't experimented to determine to what extent it affects my pH, but the theory intrigued me. Most people would think that's a goofy thing to do, and maybe it is. Search H2O2 and health. Lots of uses for hydrogen peroxide, you just have to find the ones you're comfortable with, if any. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Hope it helps. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Allision/Mike - Thanks. I'm good at getting info from the net but this will save me a lot of bumbling around trying to figure out where to start. I'm also intrigued by the H2O2 treatments. After seeing how much difference a small change in a supplement can make with an autistic child I'm willing to try most anything for MS that makes sense / can't hurt / someone isn't getting rich off of. I've also learned to go slow and do one thing at a time so I actually have an idea of what is working. Marilyn To: mscured From: mellis01@...

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Eat as many whole foods as you can. Stay out of the grocery store and eat organic if possible. I buy organic produce online and have it shipped when growing season is over around here. I placed my first order of the season Friday and it should be here this afternoon. It's expensive but not eating chemicals is worth it! www.Diamondorganics.com. I do buy lemons, avocados and bananas at the grocery store because you can peel some of the toxins off. Eat some of the food raw (salads and fruit). Bon appetit! > > I'm combining the Best Bet Diet with an alkaline(70%)acid(30%) diet and my restrictions are even greater than those on the Best Bet.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Potential hydrogen I digress and lend some posts of my mentors.... The alkaline - acid theory is just that, a theory. A couple of things to consider. Parasites secrete ammonia as a nornmal biological by-product. Ammonia is very alkaline. Would it make sense to further alikalize a body that is already too alkaline??? Too alkaline is worse than too acid. The digestive tract needs to be acid in order to absorb the alkaline the body needs. Mostly calcium. Plus the Omega 3's transport that calcium within the body. If seriously ill you definately have parasites so it would make your health deteriorate further to alkalize with diet. So there are other things more serious that require your attention before you even start to worry about an alkaline diet. Besides, I've never had any luck at all changing my Ph (both urine and saliva) with diet. There are other things much more important that alkalizing with diet. Both the book " It's Not Illegal To Get Healthy " and the CD " The Natural Healing Paradigm " have the regimes necessary to guide you back to health. Pretty important information. Learn it well. Doc I eat celtic seasalt and don't bother with minerals much at all. Never have. My personal experience with those alkalizing drinks tells me there's not much to them. I did it for quite a while and my urine Ph never changed and my saliva Ph never changed. What did change the Ph was getting rid of the bugs and decongesting my liver. Brought the Ph right into normal parameters. And now that my liver is fully functional my Ph stays within the normal limits no matter what I eat or drink. Just the same, I stick with the distilled water and nightly oils. And my diet is pretty good. Doc A little side note here. I tried for years to get my Ph to where " they " say it's supposed to be. I tried everything known to man. Yeah, that includes raw food, juicing, vegetarian, even massive vitamin therapy. All to no avail. So that makes me question whether saliva or urine Ph is acurate at determining " normal " Ph levels. I couldn't do it via those measuring methods. Both urine and saliva Ph stayed pretty much the same. Doc Neutral Ph is 7. I chased this around for years. The body needs to be alkaline and gut needs to be acid. The biggest alkalizer is calcium. The calcium is transported by Omega 3's. People have plenty of calcium in their diets but not enough good fats (omega 3's) so the calcium can't get to the body where it belongs, thus the body gets too acid. Once that happens you're in trouble. Not just Candida either. That's why I'm soooooo persistant about the oils. Very, very, very, very, important. If not enough omega 3's the calcium ends up in the arteries and joints. Plus, the body gets acid which is the perfect breeding ground for cancer. It's the alkalinity that the calcium provides that keeps high O2 levels in the body and cancer CANNOT grow in a high O2 environment. Guy got a Noble prize for that discovery many years ago. But to get the urine and saliva to a Ph of 7 I found to be quite impossible. The best improvement I saw was after a flush once the bugs were gone. Having parasites affects the bodies Ph also. The parasites give off ammonia. Ammonia is alkaline so you might well test via urine and saliva to have a normal Ph but indeed be very sick. See how tricky this is??? Anyway, it's called the " Calcium transport mechanism " . The calcium needs to be in the long bones, muscles and all the other tissues of the body to keep it alkaline. High alkalinity guarantees high oxygen levels. It's the Omega 3's that allow that to happen. The omega 3's also transport hormones. So you see, it's the oils that are the main contributing factor to correct Ph in the body because of their connection to calcium distribution. Get rid of the bugs, decongest the liver and your Ph will normalize. Of course take your oils daily for the rest of your life. It's the single most important thing you can do to guarantee your longevity. Doc Sutter The reason parasites find a home in the body is due to pollutants which are at a low PH. If we lived in a pristine world we wouldn't get these pollutants which come from many sources including diet sodas with its chemical sweeteners. Its from pesticides used in growing food and preservatives. An auto mechanic is very susceptible to making a home for parasites due to the chemicals that they work around on a daily basis. Parasites only find a home in the low PH of the pollutants. Parasites are naturally occurring in all foods. The only reason that they stop by and start having babies is the nest they have found due to chemical pollutants that are at a low acidic PH level. Parasites are at a low acidic PH level. They are right at home with the pollutants. The first step is to avoid the pollutants then the challenge is to clear out the existing pollutants. I believe there is a book called " Clear body,Clear mind " that covers that. In the meantime its a good idea to keep killing those little buggers. Exactly. That's why I wrote " It's Not Illegal " and did the CD " The Natural Healing Paradigm " . It's a zoo out there. Thought I could bring a little sense to it all because I have indeed been there. Parked right on deaths door for an extended length of time. Not a fun place to be. But I made it and learned a lot in the process which I hoped would help others, and it does, but it seems like this confusion thing is just something people have to go through. The world of Natural Healing IS a mess. So much conflicting information. I eventually threw it all away and said a simple prayer. " Lord, what works??? " So that's what people get on this forum. I did make it. Protein: Couple of things. 1. I've never seen a healthy vegetarian in the office. Been in practice over 30 years. All the vegetarians I've seen all those years were sick. Very unstable structurally and I couldn't get them stable structurally. And they didn't look good, pale, would get everything that comes along, and their kids were always sick. Turns out statistically vegetarians die young and their kids are sick and weak. 2. In treating terminal cancer victims for the past 10 years I discovered they all NEEDED meat protein to rebuild. Technically it has something to do with the meat protein is opposite of vegetable protein in the way it's constructed. (Ones right, ones left) Sure, the cleansing process might not permit meat proteins but for sure the rebuilding process does. That's just my experience with the way it works on vegetarians and terminal folks (and me). Natural Healing is NOT hard to understand. The problem seems to be people want more to do than what's necessary. They want to try everything. Simplify, simplify... Most of natural healing is simply repetition. Clean the colon, do the bug killer, flush the liver, drink distilled water, take you oils, get your diet figured out. Over and over again. At first that seems like a lot to do but after a while it gets boring and it seems like you should be doing more. And there is plenty more to do. But do you need it. I didn't and the folks I teach this to didn't and don't. Unless there's some mental necessity to worship someone else - Follow someone else. A dogmatic deal. So, confusion reigns. Now, if you haven't noticed yet you're sure to, but everything is bad for you or everything is good for you. It depends on who you read. Peanuts are good for you. But I can find people out there somewhere who will swear peanuts are bad for you. You'd think they are the nastyest things on the planet. Where's that leave you and me??? Confused....To Hell with them all - what works for me??? Peanuts are good. I love peanut butter. Always have, always will. It's good for you. You have to remember there are people even in Natural Healing that don't have your best interests in mind. We have been infiltrated by the drug companies so you always, always have to consider the source. Synthetic vitamins ARE drugs, no matter who says otherwise. They have no useful purpose in a human body. A lot of the so-called miracle products are worthless. They may do some people some good but never live up to their promise. So you have to be aware of the profit motive also. And some people in Natural Healing need to be worshiped, need to have a following no matter how dogmatic their approach to Natural Healing is. Apparently they need the ego magnification. So, it's a tricky world even in Natural Healing. I figured because I had been there and back I could offer some good advise. That IS what drives me. I remember what it's like to be truly sick and not have a clue why. The Ph thing is questionable. I tried for years to get my Ph what they say is normal. It never happened. The best thing that would improve it was the liver flushes. Second is the bug killer. I'm within normal limits now without adding specifics to my diet to get it normal. Clean and feed, clean and feed. Get tough mentally to all the naysayers, think love in preparation and consumption of what you eat. Clean and feed.

Clean the colon, do the bug killer, flush the liver, drink distilled water, take you oils, get your diet figured out. Over and over again.

The best thing that would improve it was the liver flushes. Second is the bug killer. I'm within normal limits now without adding specifics to my diet to get it normal.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 -----Original Message----- From: mscured [mailto:mscured ] On Behalf Of shepdog87 Potential hydrogen I digress and lend some posts of my mentors.... The alkaline - acid theory is just that, a theory.... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> No less a theory than the concept of parasites causing illness...:-) I do appreciate the ideas brought forth by Doc Sutter but I would not call it " truth " any more than Allopathic " theory " is considered to be " Truth " . Let's just say that he is explaining his opinions with evidence that supports it and anything that contradicts his opinions is ignored. Personally, I have a problem with the concept that parasites are all around us and cause illness. Are the parasites part of the cause or are they like vultures, feeding on the already dead body? Which comes first, our diet which makes us acidic, or parasites that make our bodies acidic? Finally, Doctors who say that vegetarians are all 'sick' usually don't come in contact with the healthy ones because they don't need a Dr. Vegetarianism is not for everyone and I would certainly agree that children who are vegetarians are more at risk for disease because they don't worry about eating right. But I think that people need to find their metabolic type and then optimize what they eat so that they heal their bodies and not harm them. What works for me will not work for everyone and anyone who says differently is being narrow minded. But that is just my opinion and certainly not the " Truth " ...:-) Tom Nesler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I currently am drinking alkaline water. I found a source temporarily from one of my doctors who thinks drinking alkaline water is good, to balance what he perceives as the over acid diet most people in the U.S. eat. How does one monitor body PH to know whether drinking a lot of alkaline water would cause problems? My doctor suggests I should consider getting a home alkalizer, like he has.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Hi Bernie, I drink well water that is alkaline and my blood, saliva and urine tested very high. Maybe the water caused it or maybe parasites did or maybe a vegitarian diet is to blame. I don't know. I can't change the water but I recently added animal protein to my diet. If I feel well then it doesn't matter to me what the numbers show. I doubt that I'll go through the arterial blood test again. > > I currently am drinking alkaline water.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I just looked at my test results. Correction: My blood and saliva were high, my urine had a lower pH than the range. > > > > I currently am drinking alkaline water.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 " How does one monitor body PH to know whether drinking a lot of alkaline water would cause problems? " Bernie, You can buy test strips to check your urine or saliva. That's for body pH. As has pointed out, blood pH is a completely different animal. Your body pH can range from 4.5 up to 8 or even 9 (scale of 1-14). Neutral reading of 7 is what you should be trying to achieve. Your body pH varies from day to day and even varies throughout the day. Blood pH has to stay withing a very tight range, and only a testing facility can measure that for you...I think. I haven't tried to gore myself and check the outflow that way, and probably won't. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
