Cancel Cells Cannot Thrive In An Alkaline Environment
At a pH slightly above 7.4 cancer cells become dormant and at pH 8.5 cancer cells will die while healthy cells will live. This phenomenon has given rise to a variety of treatments based on increasing the alkalinity of the tissues, treatments such as vegetarian diet, the drinking of fresh fruit and vegetable juices, and dietary supplementation with alkaline minerals such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, cesium and rubidium.

How does an alkaline diet prevent cancer? An alkaline diet leads to a high alkaline body ph. This high alkaline body ph results in alkaline tissues in the body. Alkaline tissues hold 20 times more oxygen than acidic tissues. Cancer cannot live in an oxygenated atmosphere. If the cells are oxygen rich they will prevent cancer. Therefore while an acidic tissue will be an ideal ground for cancer to develop as well as spread, an alkaline tissue will destroy a cancer cell. Having a lot of green vegetables and fruits along with alkaline water can save you from cancer. An alkaline diet requires one to eat foods that are high alkalizing while avoiding the acidifying foods.

An alkaline diet is very beneficial in fighting many diseases apart from cancer. Alkaline supplements are good ways to include alkaline food in your diet. Over cooking of vegetables leads to their nutrients being destroyed. Alkaline supplements make sure one gets enough alkalizing foods in a day. Also alkaline water is a good alternative to ordinary water. So if you want your body to be cancer free as well as healthy and energetic adopt an alkaline diet and make it your way of life.

The reason this was an issue for him he said, was that when performing oral sex, he found that vegetarians tasted much sweeter.

It is said that a tumor cannot "live" in an alkaline tissue.
Hmm. This opens up a new way of self health care. MN

... In a human body the acid/base balance is regulated at an extreme level. Tight regulation is imperative to our survival, as many of the chemical reactions that happen in the body can only occur at a specific pH. If the pH of the body were outside of the normal range then these chemical reactions would be greatly impaired, and disease may ensue. There are many reasons why the pH may become unfavorable to health- from outside influences such as toxins and poisons, to problems within the body such as kidney failure or pulmonary (lung) problems.To make sure that pH changes do not occur, the human body has three main mechanisms designed to keep the pH balanced: The carbonic acid/bicarbonate system, the phosphate buffer system, and the protein buffer system. Each of these systems are designed to operate either inside or outside of the cells, and within a particular part of the body.
.....If something were introduced to the body that caused the internal environment to become more acidic, then one of the buffering systems would kick into gear- usually by acting as a base and accepting or quenching the excessive protons and then eventually eliminating them.
This is why it is thought to be very difficult to achieve anything but a transient change in pH with diet changes....{Jake Psenka, ND Naturopath, Phoenix}.

...The data for the study was collected from over 22,000 men and women aged 39-78 years old. The study concluded that a more alkaline diet (high fruit and vegetable intake and lower consumption of meat) was significantly associated with a more alkaline urine pH. Furthermore, the finding that diet influenced urinary pH held true even after the study investigators adjusted for potentially confounding factors such as age, body mass index, physical activity, glucose, ketones, high blood pressure, smoking, and diuretic medication.

From this study is seems clear that urinary pH does in fact relate to dietary acid-base load. This study also suggests that urinary pH can be used to monitor change in consumption of fruits and vegetables...

If you have verifiable facts to support such claims, then by all means provide them, I'd be the first to want to learn more.

Have you noticed other patterns of odour specific to people having a particular diet or belonging to a particular race or from a particular part of the world?

Such statement opens up more nonsense.

Basically what this says is a more fruit/vegetable orientated diet changes the urine pH.

If the World Were a Village of 100 People

If we could reduce the world’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same, the demographics would look something like this:



The village would have 60 Asians, 14 Africans, 12 Europeans, 8 Latin Americans, 5 from the USA and Canada, and 1 from the South Pacific



50 would be malnourished and 1 dying of starvation.
