heart beat and how I found the cause and cure for this to be simple. At around the age of 35 (now 55) I had
developed shooting pains going through my bones like someone stabbing me with an ice pick! One day it would shoot in my hip, another day my hand, my foot, my ankle etc. My knuckles started to hurt and I could not touch them or squeeze them without pain. I knew this was not good and a sign that I was doing something wrong. But what? And how would one be able to properly diagnose it and find a quick as well.
On top of that problem I had a severe erratic heartbeat and kidney stones. The erratic heartbeat
was insane. I would lay in bed and try to sleep but my heart would go like bam, ba bam bam bam, like
skipping the scheduled heartbeat and slamming into the next one. Sometimes the beats would be like a
snare drum sputtering 10 erratic beats per second and go one like this for hours and days. I'm surprised I didn't die of a heart attack! I really didn't think I'd live past 35! At times like this you wonder how things could be so messed up and how are you going to fix it. Plus I'd like to mention I have very little faith in the average MD to find the cause of a problem like this. They would put you through a barrage of expensive tests to the tune of $10,000 or more and then pump you up with drugs till you redefine what it means to be a zombie.
Now for the lowdown on kidney stones. At least twice a year I'd get kidney stone attacks that would be so bad that the only thing I could imagine more painful would be to be cut in half with a chainsaw!! I'm not exaggerating either. Now you don't want to have to deal with that at 35 alone dealing with it the rest of your life. I was already knowledgeable since the age of 17 in the science of nutrition because as a teenager I had terrible acne which I was able to completely clear up by taking 24,000 units of vitamin A each day in the form of 3 (8,000) unit cod liver oil capsules.That is a story for another blog post.
So I was confident that there was something in my vitamin/nutritional researching that I must have missed cause none of the vitamins or herbs I took would correct either of these 3 conditions. To make this
story short I made the discovery of the ACID/ALKALINE health principle. Your body is designed to be
alkaline and not acidic.That was sinple but very profound and it was known since the days of Hypocrates I noticed that one of the side effects of all this acid is that when it gets chronic it will literally peel the skin right off the side of your mouth. That was what alerted me to think--my blood must be like battery acid!! I discovered that babies are born alkaline, and teenagers are alkaline but they are rapidly destroying their alkalinity by junk food, soft drinks etc. People in mid-life are mildly acidic and elderly people are very acidic. No one can be healthy who has acidosis and you will pay dearly living inside a body that is 80% acidic and only 20% alkaline or less. The proper ratio is the opposite.
The test you use to see how acidic you are is to put a piece of litmus on your tongue and see if it remains yellow or turns blue. If it remains yellow you are 1000 times acidic than normal. The people in terminal
cancer wards have been tested and found to be in the 2.5 range where the litmus paper cannot turn blue.
We are slowly waking up to the importance of an alkaline body as a nation. As soon as I started correcting
my PH all the symptoms went away. I noticed that when I started eating almonds I would not get the
the erratic heartbeat at all.Almonds are highly alkaline. The shooting pains stopped instantly and 20 years later have not come back.
What I know now is that when you become too acidic and your body has used up it's reserve supply of bicarbonate of soda-- your body will literally pull the calcium out of your bones to help alkalize you body. This is what cause the shooting pains. How true that pain is a warning mechanism not ignore or drug away but find the cause and correct it. See the connection here and why we have an epidemic of osteoporosis among women? The acidic condition is forcing the body to pull as much calcium from the bones to get the system alkaline again. The result is weak bones that shatter. It has also come to my attention why elderly people look so sunken in and why the skin hangs on our bodies so much.It is not old age as much as people might think. The high acid body takes so much calcium from the bones that the while skeletal system shrinks. What you see by and large in old folks homes are people who are shrinking down from acidic wastes. The fastest way to alkalize you body is to drink lots of spring water (not spicket water) cause spicket water is highly acidic from the chlorine, fluoride etc. Taking alkaline minerals and foods like cantelope and watermellon. Alkaline compounds like bee pollen, wheat grass, barley grass, alfalfa, spirulina, chlorella, etc. All green foods contain chlorophyll which is highly alkaline.
Li Ching-Yuen or Li Ching-Yun was a Chinese herbalist, martial artist and tactical advisor. He was born in
1677-1933 who lived to be 256 years old. No-- that is not a misprint either because he is not only listed in the Guinness Book of World Records but Time Magazine, and other publications. The Time magazine article stated that in 1930 Professor Wu Chung-chieh, from Chengdu University, found records from the Chinese Imperial Government congratulating Li Ching Yuen in his 150th birthday in 1827. He also worked as an herbalist, promoting the use of wild reishi, wild ginseng, he shou wu and gotu kola along with other Chinese herbs. His secret! A few of them I know. But the main food he lived on were vegetables and he drank mineral water which kept him very alkaline. Also he said his philosophy was to "maintain a serene attitude at all times" which also contributes to an alkaline disposition. Some of his other admonitions were:
- Sit like a tortoise
- Walk sprightly like a pigeon
- Sleep like a dog
It should be noted that worry and anger churn up acidic wastes as supported by modern science. The last thing I'd like to point out is that the average American consumes 160 lbs of sugar per-person per-year. In 1900 it was only 10 pounds per year. That is a 1500% increase and what kind of effect do you think sugar has in the stomach? It cranks up the acid! What two foods is it that cancer feeds on? Sugar and acid! And to that list should be added all prescription drugs. They are notorious for acidifying the body. See what is happening to us. We are becoming our own worse enemies if don't stop assaulting our bodies with abuse. Health has nothing to do with drugs or the practices of modern medicine!
