The Acid Alkaline Imbalance & Disease

The concept of acid alkaline imbalance as the cause of disease is nothing new to be expounded upon by experts. It was in 1933, that Dr. William Howard Hay from New published a book, A New Health Era. In it he said that all disease is caused by auto-toxication (or "self-poisoning") due to acid accumulation in the body:

"Now we depart from health in just the proportion to which we have allowed our alkalies to be dissipated by introduction of acid-forming food in too great amount... It may seem strange to say that all disease is the same thing, no matter what its myriad modes of expression, but it is verily so." — William Howard Hay, M.D.

Dr. Otto Warburg discovered the real cause of cancer in 1923 and he received the Nobel Prize for doing so in 1931. Dr. Warburg was director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute (now Max Planck Institute) for cell physiology at Berlin. He investigated the metabolism of tumors and the respiration of cells, particularly cancer cells.

“Cancerous tissues are acidic, whereas healthy tissues are alkaline. Water splits into H+ and OH- ions, if there is an access of H+, it is acidic; if there is an access of OH- ions, then it is alkaline.”

In his work, The Metabolism of Tumours, he demonstrated that all forms of cancer are characterized by two basic conditions: acidosis and hypoxia (lack of oxygen). Lack of oxygen and acidosis are two sides of the same coin: where you have one, you have the other.... All normal cells have an absolute requirement for oxygen, but cancer cells can live without oxygen - a rule without exception... Deprive a cell 35% of its oxygen for 48 hours and it may become
cancerous." - Dr. Otto Warburg

Dr. Warburg has made it clear that the prime cause of cancer is oxygen deficiency (brought about by Toxemia). Dr Warburg discovered that cancer cells are anaerobic (do not breathe oxygen) and cannot survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen.

This is just information as to what happens when there is an extremely acidic condition in the body according to some experts. We have to make changes in our diet, in what we drink, and our lifestyle to help counter an over-acidic condition in our body.

Just some really brief suggestions for you: Eat better: Eat as natural. as possible. Don't rush when you eat. Chew your food very well. Your mouth has teeth; your stomach doesn't! Stop using drive-throughs!! It's usually junk-food, and you don't relax while you're eating. Food should be enjoyed and eaten under relaxed conditions. Avoid sodas like the plague. Drink pure, invigorating, non-bottled water-you know by now which one I drink. Have periods of time during every single day when you take time for yourself. Life should be enjoyed. Take a few moments each day to enjoy a bit of your favorite music, have a time of meditation, take a walk, do some yoga, meet with friends who are up-building and positive in your life, etc., and laugh. It's healthy for you!

Have a wonderful day,
Stephen

Can You Disinfect With Just Water? Yes, You Can!

By owning a Living Water Ionizer Device, you have access to 2.5 disinfectant water! Do you know the value of this water in your home? I have to share with you some excerpts from an article in the LA Times:

It's a kitchen degreaser. It's a window cleaner. It kills athlete's foot. Oh, and you can drink it.

Sounds like the old "Saturday Night Live" gag for Shimmer, the faux floor polish plugged by Gilda Radner. But the elixir is real. It has been approved by U.S. regulators. And it's starting to replace the toxic chemicals Americans use at home and on the job.

The stuff is a simple mixture of table salt and tap water whose ions have been scrambled with an electric current. Researchers have dubbed it electrolyzed water -- hardly as catchy as Mr. Clean. But at the Sheraton Delfina in Santa Monica, some hotel workers are calling it el liquido milagroso -- the miracle liquid.

That's as good a name as any for a substance that scientists say is powerful enough to kill anthrax spores without harming people or the environment. Used as a sanitizer for decades in Russia and Japan, it's slowly winning acceptance in the United States. A New York poultry processor uses it to kill salmonella on chicken carcasses... Michigan jailers mop with electrolyzed water to keep potentially lethal cleaners out of the hands of inmates.

In Santa Monica, the once-skeptical Sheraton housekeeping staff has ditched skin-chapping bleach and pungent ammonia for spray bottles filled with electrolyzed water to clean toilets and sinks.

"I didn't believe in it at first because it didn't have foam or any scent," said housekeeper Flor Corona. "But I can tell you it works. My rooms are clean."

For more than two centuries, scientists have tinkered with electrolysis, the use of an electric current to bring about a chemical reaction... It turns out that zapping salt water with low-voltage electricity creates a couple of powerful yet non-toxic cleaning agents, that cleans and de-greases like detergent, but without the scrubbing bubbles. This potent disinfectant is known as acidic water.

...Doctors use it to sterilize equipment and treat foot fungus and bedsores. Minnesota food scientist Joellen Feirtag said she was similarly skeptical. So she installed an electrolysis unit in her laboratory and began researching the technology. She found that the acid water killed E. coli, salmonella, listeria and other nasty pathogens. Yet it was gentle enough to soothe her children's sunburns and acne.

"It's 10 times more effective than bleach in killing bacteria
," said Yen-Con Hung, a
professor of food science at the University of Georgia-Griffin, who has been researching electrolyzed water for more than a decade. "And it's safe."

You are able to make an extremely effective disinfectant water that is safe for you, your children, and your pets from your machine. It kills numerous pathogens in 30 seconds.

Take advantage of this amazing water. Isn't it awesome that you don't have to buy those disinfectant gels and body washes with triclosan, propylene glycol and other substances that are hormone disruptors, and other poisonous, home disinfectants in those plastic bottles? The store-bought disinfectants are harmful to people, and the plastic bottles will become trash and contribute to the vast amount of plastic garbage thrown into landfills.

Wow! It's safe, so economical, and is eco-friendly, too. You can use it for insect bites, skin abrasions, other skin problems, and so much more.

My wife and I for 41 years have lived naturally. I have been a natural health practitioner for over 36 years. Our babies were birthed at home and nursed until they weaned themselves which was quite some time. My wife, Donna, never used a box mix for anything; she made everything from scratch and, always natural. We grew what we could on our city lots organically as our children were growing up. Keeping foods wholesome and natural, and living a lifestyle free from chemicals as much as possible we believe is important to our health and the welfare of the planet. Our 8, beautiful grandchildren, as well as, everyone else's precious grandchildren, need to have the opportunity to grow up in a world that is safe, and as pollution free as possible. Their health and safety from a world over-run by chemicals and pollution in the coming years depends, however, on what we do today.

What everyone does personally can make a difference. Keep your family safe, healthy, and free from such chemicals as triclosan that I discussed yesterday, by using such things as an ionized water for everything from drinking water and household cooking, to disinfecting and cleaning everything around the home safely. It's convenient-no plastic bottles to pollute the environment and no chemicals from the plastic bottles leaching into the water held within that people then drink! And, you have an endless supply handy at all times for your family-no hauling water from the store to your home. How great is that? I love it.

I found out three years ago that our local spring water was either to acidic if I got it from the cold springs, or just neutral from the hot springs and both were very oxidative: Yes, oxidative when tested. You wouldn't think that, would you? And, if I chose to get bottled water as an alternative, I discovered that most bottled water is as acidic as soda, and, without exception, is chemical laden from the plastic in which it is held. From studies it was likely to contain bacteria, too. It's, also, expensive for something that is so bad for us. I sure didn't want to buy that anymore.

Both those choices, at age 61, meant hauling water which was pretty laborious and inconvenient, especially in bad weather. Then I found out that I could make this awesome, alkaline, anti-oxidant, restructured water right in my home from my own tap source. I got a water ionizer for which I am so glad I did.

Well, I could go on on that subject, but ... enough for right now: Have a great day!

Till next time...

Take care, be happy, and live as natural as possible,
Stephen

Are Anti-Bacterial Products Hazardous to Our Health?

Hello,

We have often mentioned in our emails and in our Health & Wellness Seminars how anti-bacterial products can be hazardous to your health. Below is a recent video that we want to share with you on some products commonly sold in stores and a chemical that is being used in them.

In the U.S., the FDA began a review of the safety of triclosan. What is Triclosan? It is an anti-bacterial chemical found in many consumer products, such as soap, hand sanitizers, toothpaste, etc.

Massachusetts Democrat Edward Markey has called for strict limits on the use of triclosan. "Despite the fact that this chemical is found in everything from soaps to socks," said Markey, "There are many troubling questions about triclosan's effectiveness and potentially harmful effects, especially for children."

Concerned? We all should be! In a study, it clearly showed that this chemical can alter hormone regulation and contribute to other maladies. Other studies have demonstrated how bacteria exposed to triclosan has the potential to become resistant to antibiotics.

Information on chemicals such as this is so important to have people know about. It is our children's and our grandchildren's future that is at stake. And, knowledge is the key.

By knowing what can affect our health is the only way we can totally avoid products containing harmful substances such as triclosan, and recognizing what to look for on labels. Just because it can be sold on a store shelf, doesn't mean that it is harmless. It is definitely "Buyer Beware."


Those who invest in a Living Water device have the ability to make amazing 2.5 pH water to use as a safe and most effective disinfectant and anti-bacterial fighter for their hands and homes. When you have a machine of your own, you'll be able to take a spray bottle of 2.5 pH water with you wherever you go as we do. Our young grandchildren even take a spray bottle to school with them to use instead of the sanitizing gels that teachers routinely dole out to each student during the day, and, the school system allows and approves of them to do this.

Please feel free to contact me for further information on this. It is vital information for your family's health and well-being.

Stay safe; stay healthy,
Stephen
