Guest guest Posted March 23, 2001 Report Share Posted March 23, 2001 if anyone wants to order ph strips for saliva or for urine - i have found a source recently. The ph papers for urine or saliva are $9.50 its a roll of them - don't know how many feet. They also offer books, etc. on alkalinizing. Anyway - the co. is HomeCure - 1-800-559-2873 - they are in Mesa, Arizona. wendy Re: Re: acid/alkaline issue > are the ph strips the same as you use to test your swimming pools and > hot > tubs?

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2001 Report Share Posted March 23, 2001 I just went and ordered some litmus paper from my local animal/garden supply store. 15 feet of paper for 15 Cdn. I think that's gotta be a decent price. The range it tests is from 1 to 12. I think that ought to cover what I need it for.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 Just like me to reply to myself, I forgot something. If you test acidic after eating, then you take a spoonful of applecider vinegar, wait another 20 minutes and test again. This information I remember from some other person posting on another board.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 I was told on another board that you can use test strips for aquariums so for swimming pools should be good. You can buy very sensitive strips if you want to know different degrees of acidity. But that is not needed for what we are looking for. And you can use the same strips for saliva and urine.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 yes... its a real coral that is from an area around Japan... called 'coral calcium' - i'm sure you can find it on line... just put that in as your 'key words'. It is a 'multi-level' thing - the way its marketed... we just signed up to get it cheaper.... wendy Re: Re: acid/alkaline issue > > > > Liz: what about the yeast & not being able to drink vinegar?

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 It may depend on your sensitivity. If you cannot tolerate it then don't use it. Someone made a post # 1005 in the archives that written information that I read some time ago. I can't find anything in my books, where I read this I don't know. But if you can tolerate it, this is very good for you. Alternative - bicarbonate of soda, lemon juice, most anything that would make you pucker up. Each item has its own degree of alkalinity. When you get your test papers experiment with those things in you kitchen. One of the biggest problems of developing this acidic condition is not having enough of enzymes and hydrochloric acid in your stomach. I was told by my doctor that you take a little hydrochloric acid at a time until you find the right dose. We haven't done it yet, but I know if you take too much you can develop an ulcer. I am wondering how this grapefruit seed extract would do since it is a very bitter substance. Most of you have been using this product, so test it.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 So what is the product you are taking? I am guessing it is in the powder form?

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 , I found the coral calcium on http://www.healththrunutrition.com/coralcalcium.html Do you take the Regular or the Gold version? How often? I am going to try it because trying to manage the alkalinity thing thru foods alone just is too difficult. However, I have in the past gotten die-off with just about anything that disturbs my "status quo" internally. I suspect this might too. Did you experience any die-off? Any suggestions on taking it as well? You offer such helpful information (as does everyone here) and I really resonate with the natural/balance approach to most things in life.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 Magi - I take the GOLD version - which has colloidal silver in it. The beauty of this is that you get almost 1000 mg of calcium - in an extremely assimilatable form - as we all know - calcium is the HARDEST mineral to assimilate. This coral calcium has so amazingly changed people's lives - a lot of our friends have been on it for years and they too 'wouldn't be without it'...! Where do you live?? If you are in the UK it might cost more.... the best thing is to 'sign up' as a distributor (you are not required to 'do' anything) and then order yours cheaper. The first little while I was on it over 4 years ago it did take me some time to 'build up' to the Coral Calcium GOLD - first I took the regular Coral Calcium... my body was too weak to handle the GOLD (with the CS). What I do in the a.m. when I first get up is I put my 3/4 gallon of distilled water out on the counter (in PLAIN view... so I don't forget all day) and I add my packet (coral calcium Gold) to the water. I just leave that water there all day so I DON " T FORGET to drink it. Also - for some people who are really sick -they recommend using a second packet a day that you open and just " eat " in your mouth. if you go to www.google.com and use it as your search engine you will find a lot of info (including people selling coral calcium) under the key words: acid/alkaline balance Also - another outfit besides HTN sells the Coral Calcium - they're called Kingsway... and they too have the original coral calcium. Don't get cheap imitations - they will be 'sand' off a beach.... marketed as coral calcium. wendy Re: Re: acid/alkaline issue, I found the coral calcium on http://www.healththrunutrition.com/coralcalcium.html Do you take the Regular or the Gold version?

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2001 Report Share Posted March 25, 2001 tracy - go to this address and read the " interview " by Barefoot, ok??? I could spend a lot of time going into what you said,,, but have no time this a.m. - the place is: http://www.brunnerbiz.com/coralcalcium/index.html read the INTERVIEW with Barefoot.... wendy Re: Re: acid/alkaline issue Hi This Coral Calcium that you speak of, concerns me. If you take Calcium without Magnesium, you are setting yourself up for problems. Any mineral taken by itself throws another out of balance. An over abundance of Calcium will disrupt your magnesium levels. Sodium and Potassium are the same. Does this Calcium have magnesium in it? I don't know enough about the product to comment much, but I was more concerned about what it could be doing long term? Have you checked this out?

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2001 Report Share Posted March 27, 2001 , thanks much for all the info. on Coral Calcium. I forgot to tell you that I live in Northern Virginia in the Washington DC Metropolitan area. So, getting most things locally isn't too difficult. However, the sites and searches you mentioned will be helpful in getting the best price. Also, thanks for sharing your experience w/the calcium. Perspective is everything. magi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
