Do You Have GERD? Take The Test

More than 60 million Americans experience heartburn
at least once a month and some studies suggest more
than 15 million Americans experience heartburn symptoms
each day.

Are you one of them?

How severe is your heartburn?

What are the chances that it is something more
serious?

Here's a simple self-test developed by a panel of
experts from the American College of Gastroenterology.
Test yourself to see if you're a GERD sufferer and
are taking the right steps to treat it.

1. Do you frequently have one or more of the following:

a) An uncomfortable feeling behind the breastbone
that seems to be moving upward from the stomach?

b) An acid burning sensation in the back of
your throat?

c) A bitter acid taste in your mouth?

d) A saliva pH below 7.2.

2. Do you often experience these problems after meals?

3. Do you experience heartburn or acid indigestion
two or more times per week?

4. Do you find that antacids provide temporary relief
from your symptoms?

5. Are you taking prescription medication to treat
heartburn, but still having symptoms?

6. Do you eat dairy and/or meat every day?

7. Do drink coffee, tea, alcohol or soda pops?

If you said yes to two or more of the above questions,
you may be at risk for GERD. To know for sure, test your
morning urine pH. If your morning urine pH is below
5.5 pH you may be at risk for GERD.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, the cause of GERD
is a result of an over-acidic lifestyle and diet.

The body is alkaline by design and acidic by function.

To maintain the alkaline design of the body the stomach
produces sodium bicarbonate to alkalize the food that we
eat and drink.

When we over-indulge in an acidic lifestyle and diet
this causes the stomach to work overtime to produce
the needed sodium bicarbonate for buffering the
increase in dietary acid.

The stomach will produce in the lining of the
stomach an equal amount of hydrochloric acid to
each molecule of sodium bicarbonate produced.

The sodium bicarbonate rises to meet the ingested
food and drink as the hydrochloric acid - a waste
product of sodium bicarbonate production falls into
the gastric pits of the stomach away from the food.

It is important to understand that in the ideal
situation the hydrochloric acid should never come in
contact with the food or drink. The ideal pH of the food
when it leaves the stomach into the small intestine
is 8.4 pH.

If the food and/or drink ingested is highly acidic
and/or comes in contact with the hydrochloric acid
and/or there is not enough sodium bicarbonate to
buffer the acids of the food and/or drink this can
create an over-acidic state in the stomach. When this
happens the stomach becomes too acidic or sour resulting
in the symptoms of acid reflux and/or heart burn.

If this over-acidic state is not corrected it can
lead to more serious symtomologies such as
ulcerations and degenerations of the stomach.

Dr. Young has stated, "the process of digestion
is not well understood by current medical savants.
The true purpose of the alimentary canal is to alkalize
the food and/or liquids that we ingest in preparation
for biological transformation into new blood in the
small intestine. The main organ for alkalizing the
food and liquids that we ingest is the stomach. The
stomach is an organ of contribution not digestion!"

To help in the process of sodium bicarbonate, Dr.
Young has created the pHlavor mineral salts and
the pHour mineral salts.

Shelley's Recipe of the Week - Red Potato Salad

I hope you enjoy the recipe of the week
contributed by Lois Frederick.

-------------------------------------------------

Freddies Crunchy Red Potato Salad

5 or 6 small size new or red potatoes
1 stalk celery
1 carrot
1/2 English cucumber
1/2 green pepper
1/4" slice of sweet or red onion
1/2 avocado
The equivalent of 3 eggs made from tofu scrambler
4 or 5 broccoli flowerettes
1 broccoli stem (peel through outer skin away and
only use tender part)
1/2" slice of red cabbage

You can really add any other crunchy vegetables
you would like i.e. radishes, cauliflower

1/2 c. soaked sunflower seeds

Steam your potatoes. Slice or cube with the skins.
Add seasoning. I used dill weed, Redmond Real Salt,
pHlavor salt and Cajun seasoning and allow that to
penetrate into the warm potatoes. You can really use
a heavy hand so that all the potatoes are covered.
After the potatoes cool you can add all your chopped
ran vegetables and tofu eggs. All the vegetables
should be chopped to bite size. Mix together.

Dressing: Put juice of 1/2 large lemon, 4 T extra
virgin olive or avocado oil, 1 T Vegenaise
(a mayonnaise substitute found at the health store)

Pour over salad and toss gently. You don't want the
salad dripping in dressing, you just want enough to
moisten every piece. Tastes great right away or two
days later.

Serves 5 or 6

Dark Fruits and Veggies Combat a Cancerous Colon

Dark-colored vegetables and fruits may help defend
against a cancerous colon, new research shows.

Experiments on human cells that are cancerous and on
rats lead scientists to believe that anthocyanins, which
are the substances that give fruits and vegetables a
strong red, blue, or purple color, may slow cellular
fermentation or rotting from 50 to 80 percent.

"All fruits and vegetables that are rich in anthocyanins
have compounds that can slow down the growth of colon
cancer cells in experiments in laboratory dishes and
possibly inside the body," said Monica Giusti, lead
author of the new study and assistant professor of
food science at Ohio State University.

Which ones have the strongest effect?

Pigments from purple cabbage and blackcurrant not only
stopped cancerous growth, but in addition transformed
about 20 percent of the cancerous cells while leaving
healthy cells alone. When rats with a cancerous colon
were fed anthocyanin extracts from chokeberries and
bilberries, signs of tumors were reduced 60 to 70
percent.

While it's not going to hurt anyone to include dark
fruits and vegetables in their daily diet and will
probably help for a number of nutritional reasons,
Giusti emphasized that the new study is still
preliminary in regard to the chemical structure of
the 600 different anthocyanins found in nature.

"We're just beginning to scratch the surface of
understanding how the body absorbs and uses these
different structures," she said.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist
at the pH Miracle Center suggests, "pro-anthocyanins are
some of the best chelators or buffers of dietary and
metabolic acids. Pro-anthocyanins are powerful antioxidants
helping to maintain the alkalinity of the body fluids
and thus protecting the cells from premature
fermentation. Pro-anthocyanins are found in great
abundance in all of the dark green, blue, and purple
fruits and vegetables."

Dr. Young has created a powerful formulation of
dark colored super fruits called "pHruits" for
providing a concentration of pro-anthocyanidins.

and alkalizing super fruits formula on the market,

The Wooden Bowl

A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year old grandson.

The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table.

But the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth.

The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess. "We must do something about father," said the son. "I've had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor."

So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl!

When the family glanced in Grandfather's direction, sometime he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food.

The four-year-old watched it all in silence.

One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, "What are you making?"

Just as sweetly, the boy responded, "Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food in when I grow up." The four-year-old smiled and went back to work .

The words so struck the parents so that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done.

That evening the husband took Grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table.

For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.

On a positive note, I've learned that, no matter what happens, how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.

I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles four things: a rainy day, the elderly, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I've learned that, regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.

I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life.."

I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.

I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.

I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.

I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.

I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.

I've learned that every day, you should reach out and touch someone.

People love that human touch -- holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.!

Flaxseed May Reduce Hot Flashes

Data from a new Mayo Clinic (http://mayoclinic.edu)
study suggest that dietary therapy using flaxseed can
decrease hot flashes in postmenopausal women who do
not take estrogen. The findings from the pilot study
are published in the summer 2007 issue of the Journal
of the Society for Integrative Oncology.

A hot flash is often described as a flush of intense
warmth across much of the body that may be accompanied
by sweating, reddening of the skin, or, occasionally,
cold shivers. Hot flashes occur in varying frequency
and duration, even during sleep, and often cause or
accompany sleep deprivation, anxiety and irritability.

“Hot flashes are a bothersome issue for women
experiencing menopause,” says Sandhya Pruthi, M.D.,

(http://mayoresearch.mayo.edu/mayo/research/staff/pruthi_s.cfm)

Mayo Clinic breast health (http://cancercenter.mayo.edu/) specialist and the study’s primary investigator. “We hope
to find more effective nonhormonal options to assist women,
and flaxseed looks promising.”

Although until recently hormone replacement therapy was
the most commonly prescribed treatment for hot flashes,
unwanted side effects have led to the search for
non-hormonal solutions. Several effective non-hormonal
drug therapies have been identified, but they are not
always effective, and not all women can use them because
of side effects. These limitations have led researchers
to explore non-drug agents.

They have studied a variety of herbal and dietary
supplements in randomized, placebo-controlled trials,
including vitamin E, black cohosh and soy, but none has
shown to produce any significant reduction in frequency
or severity of hot flashes.

The 29 participants in Mayo’s clinical trial were women
with bothersome hot flashes who did not want to take
acidic estrogen because of an increased risk
of cancerous breasts. They also had not received
(in the preceding four weeks) antineoplastic
chemotherapy, androgens, hormonal agents, or other
herbal supplements, including soy.

Some patients did not complete the trial, but full
data for six weeks of flaxseed therapy, consisting
of 40 grams of crushed flaxseed ingested daily,
was obtained from 21 of them.

Participants were asked questions that the researchers
translated into a hot flash score — a combined measure
of frequency and severity. The frequency of hot flashes
decreased 50 percent over six weeks, and the overall hot
flash score decreased an average 57 percent for the women
who completed the trial. Participants also reported
improvements in mood, joint or muscle pain, chills and
sweating; which significantly improved their
health-related quality of life.

“We are quite pleased with the improvements noted by
these women in their quality of life,” says Pruthi.

“Not only does flaxseed seem to alleviate hot flashes,
but it appears to have overall health and psychological
benefits as well.”

Pruthi’s team chose to research flaxseed because it
is a phytoestrogen (plant-based anti-estrogen source).
Flaxseed contains lignans and omega-3 fatty acids.
Lignans are antioxidants with weak anti-estrogen
emulating characteristics, and have some anti-cancer
effects. Flaxseed also appears to have anti-estrogen
properties and has been shown in some recent research
trials to decrease the risk of cancerous breasts.

The researchers hypothesized that patients taking
flaxseed might gain some relief for hot flashes.

This pilot trial was designed to determine the
effectiveness of flaxseed in alleviating hot flashes
and identify possible side effects. Pruthi cautions
that the results are preliminary and taking flaxseed
may not give relief to every woman suffering hot
flashes.

“While results were promising, we have more research
to conduct,” she says. “Oftentimes, pilot studies show
promising results that upon further study in a large,
randomized placebo-controlled study turn out to be
much less remarkable.”

Dr. Robert O. Young, a research microbiologist, states
that, "a hot flash is the body's mechanism to move
dietary and metabolic acids out through the spores of
the skin. The use of flaxseed/flaxseed oil, olive oil,
and avocado oil are excellent for buffering excess
dietary and metabolic acids, which are the cause of
hot flashes. Bottom line when you reduce acidity you
will reduce hot flashes."

25 Things That Happen With Aging and What You Can Do About Them

The following is a selection, from a long list, of things that happen to us as we age. The good news is there are things we can do to slow down, and in some instances even stop or reverse, these particular aging processes.

1. Lean Muscle Mass decrease - accelerates after about age 40, averaging a loss of about 7 lbs. of lean muscle mass per decade.

Remedy: Do exercises to increase muscle mass, or to decrease the rate of loss. Take 1 teaspoon of glutathione 3 times a day, which will help to increase muscle mass. Eat more high chlorophyll foods to build blood which in turn builds muscle. Eliminate all animal protein and complex carbohydrate intake to reduce acidity that tenderizes and weakens muscle cells. Whole body or whole cell exercising with a rebounder and/or whole body vibrational machine will help to remove acids from the tissues and prevent and/or reverse tissue wasting. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

2. Skin "thickness" decreases... resulting in increased wrinkles.

Remedy: Take supplements of vitamin A, C, E, and glutathione. Eliminate all animal protein and complex carbohydrates. Increase your intake of green fruits and vegetables which are high in chlorophyll that will help build healthy blood and in turn help build healthy skin cells. The quality of the blood will determine the quality of the skin cells and the quality of the red blood cells as the primary stem cells will be determined by the quality and quantity of green fruits and vegetables eaten. Take at least 9 to 12 servings of green fruits or vegetables a day or supplement your diet with a concentration of fruits and vegetables called pHruits and pHolage. Take 1 to 2 capsules or pHruits and pHolage with alkaline water 3 times daily.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

3. Body strength, stamina, and reflex speeds decreases.

Remedy: Do low impact and static attraction exercises. Try to EAT much more chlorophyll rich foods and eat 60 grams of polyunsaturated fats.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/vibratrim.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

4. Toxic "heavy" metals, such as lead and mercury accumulate throughout our lives in our bodies. These heavy metals accumulate in the heart, liver, brain and the spinal column, causing damage. This process probably starts soon after birth. Lead will cause learning disabilities. Mercury accumulation causes both learning deficiencies and muscle pain. Both probably also contribute to unknown tissue damage, resulting in increases in other terrible diseases.

Remedy: Get an analysis done to determine what levels of toxic metals are in your body. Of course, if you smoke, quit smoking. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help lower the levels of toxic metals. Take 1 teaspoon of Glutathione 3 times a day. Dry heat sauna, lymphatic massage and exercise can also help lower some toxins. Avoid contact as much as possible with mercury and lead in paints, fungus creams, etc. The greatest amount of mercury is foolishly placed into your mouth by ignorant dentists, via so-called "silver" amalgams (if dentists would call them "mercury amalgams," like they should since they are more than 50% mercury, then they might lose business...) Utterly refuse any mercury amalgams in your mouth, and consider removing and replacing the ones you have!

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

5. Basal Metabolism Rate decreases. The thyroid gland produces less hormone.

Remedy: As we age, the Thyroid Gland produces less Thyroid Hormone. You should elliminate all protein and complex carbohydrates from your diet; eat more alkaline electron rich, high water content and high chlorophyll content foods and drinks. Start taking 1 to 2 teaspoons of pHour salts containing sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium. Spray the pHlavor salt in your mouth every hour or when you feel a decrease in energy.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phlavor.htm

6. Hearing Loss, Impaired Eyesight.

Remedy: Take supplemental Glutathione, Vitamin A, and Vitamin E. Place 1 drop in each ear or each eye of colloidal copper, gold, silver and titanium. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

7. LDL Cholesterol, (Low Density Lipoprotein) increases when we are more acidic, and HDL Cholesterol (High Density Lipoprotein) decreases when we are eating acidic foods.

Remedy: There has been a lot of discussion recently about "good" cholesterol, and "bad" cholesterol. These are actually artificial distinctions which have no real correlation to what is actually going on in the body. For example, LDL (often called "bad" cholestorol) is actually good for buffering acids and HDL (often called "good" cholesterol) is good for driving nutrients and building cellular membranes. So both types of Cholesterol actually are "good" at correct levels.

To keep the types of Cholesterol in the correct proportions for optimum health, you should void animal protein, all sugar, and complex carbohydrate foods whenever you can. Take chromium, vanadium, Omega-3 from hemp seed, Omega-5 from pomegranate seed, amino acids such as glutathione, taurine, cysteine, carnitine. Eat alkaline, high chlorophyll fruits and vegetables with a high content of water and fiber. Never take injected growth hormone!

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

8. Bone Density decreases - Osteoporosis ("lost of bone minerals") increasingly becomes a problem after age 50 in both men and women.

Remedy: Eliminate all acidic foods and drinks which causes the release of calcium ions from the bones. Take supplemental vitamin D, sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, lysine, and boron. Take mineral salts like pHour salts and pHlavor salts.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phlavor.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/pHourSalts.htm

9. Paradoxically, as Calcium (and other minerals) decrease in bone, as we age Calcium actually increases in the blood, contributing to arthritis, and lack of flexibility in veins and arteries, in fact of the entire circulatory system.

Remedy: Eliminate all acidic foods and drinks as outlined in the pH Miracle for Weight Loss, including all proteins, sugars, complex carbohydrates, non-alkaline water. Start eating a diet rich in chlorophyll, alkaline water, mineral salts like pHour salts and pHlavor salts and liberal amounts of long chain fats from olive, hemp, flax and pomegranate.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phlavor.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/pHourSalts.htm

10. Organs Shrink in size. The liver and brain and other vital organs shrink and become less effective because of dietary and metabolic acid. We lose up to 20% of the neurons in our brain, especially after age 45. Our liver also shrinks in size because of dietary and metabolic acid.

Remedy: Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help dilate the capillaries. This will help feed the brain and other organs with oxygen and nutrients, to prevent loss. Take glutathione, which will increase the circulatory system, thus getting nutrients and oxygen and water to all organs, thus preventing their loss.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

11. Reduced Brain function. This loss of brain function may be due to the loss of the neurons in the brain, due to reduced oxygen, or the increase in acid on our brain; from bad circulation, or from red blood cell deficiency, or, most probably, due to a combination of these factors. Improving any or all of them will decrease the loss of neurons.

Remedy: Nebulize 10 ml of glutathione 3 times a day. Glutathione will help to clean up lipofuscin, which contributes to the loss of brain cells. Hydration with green drinks will help to clean up the circulatory system. Lower cholesterol and triglicerides will help blood to flow better. Vaso-dilators such as sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium bicarbonate with 3 to 4 liters of green drinks per day will help get food, oxygen, and water to your brain cells. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy will super-saturate blood with oxygen, which could help repair or save brain cells. Take supplements with glutathoine, cysteine, taurine, magnesium, zinc, choline, vitamins B-5, B-6, B-12, folic acid, calcium, and especially CLA from pomegranate seeds. Nebulize glutathione, cysteine, and taurine which will help to increase your circulatory system to the brain, which will help to keep your brain cells healthy.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

12. "Deep Sleep" deteriorates. Deterioration in Deep Sleep patterns begins as early as young adulthood (ages 16 to 25) and increases in mid-life (35-50). Although the total amount of sleep remains constant as young adults move into mid-life, the proportion of "slow wave" or "deep sleep" decreases from nearly 20% of a normal night's sleep for those under 25, to less than five percent for those over 35. Growth Hormone secretion, which only occurs during deep sleep, also declines by as much as 75% in later life.

Remedy: Nebulize glutathione, which helps to increase deep sleep. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

13. Degradation of nerve response and reactivity. The Vagus nerve (also called pneumogastric nerve or cranial nerve X), which runs from the base of the brain to the down below the head, to the neck, chest and abdomen, and deteriorates from acidic exposure to dietary and metabolic acids. The Vagus X nerve is the main neural component of the parasympathetic, autonomous, nervous system, which controls body functions not under our "conscious" control, such as Heart Rate. As we age, our "Resting Heart Rate" increases even in "fit" individuals.

Remedy: The acid sugar causes the most damage to the circulatory system. Learn which foods increase your blood glucose levels, and avoid those foods (potatoes, bread, sweets, fruits, rice, pasta, pizza, cookies, and cakes). Eliminate all animal proteins that will decrease uric, nitric, sulphuric and phosphoric acid.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/books.htm

14. Antioxidants decrease - Certain antioxidants decrease with age, such as super-oxidase dimutase. These antioxidants are important for buffering dietary acids, and as our first natural defense against fermentation or tissue degeneration from dietary and metabolic acids.

Remedy: Eat raw electron rich green fruits and vegetables, if necessary take natural mineral salt supplements, like pHour salts which contains sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium bicarbonate. Take orally glutathione, which will help decrease the harmful dietary and metabolic acids that increase with age.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phlavor.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/pHourSalts.htm

15. Lung Efficiency (ability of the lungs to take in oxygen) decreases.

Remedy: Do low impact aerobic exercises such as rebounding, walking, jogging, and whole body vibration. Clear the bowels of any undigested animal and dairy products. Drink 1 tablespoon of liquid chlorophyll every hour to help build the blood.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/vibratrim.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/rebounder.htm

16. The amount of water in body tissues decreases... resulting in dry skin and increased wrinkles.

Remedy: Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of structured electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of concentrated pHruits and pHolage each day. This will help provide the naturally occurring antioxidants to prevent wrinkles and the electron rich hydration to prevent dry skin.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/water.htm

17. Body Fat Content - as a percentage of total body weight, fat increases from 25% to more than 40% as we age.

Remedy: Eat less sugar and protein in your diet which causes the body to retain fat to buffer the excess acids. Eliminate undigested proteins in the 9 yards of the intestines with oral alimentary canal cleaners, enemas and colonic irrigation. Take 2 to 3 teaspoons of magnesium oxide to break-up undigested animal proteins, sticky acids from complex carbohydrates and acid bound mucous.

18. Loss of Hair - Volume and Color.

Remedy: Wash and condition your hair with Young pHorever Shampoo and Conditioner which will increase the circulatory system reaching the roots of the hairs, thus taking water, oxygen, and nutrients to the roots of your hair. This will avoid or postpone the loss of hair.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/young-pHorever.htm

19. Blood pressure increases.

Remedy: Eat less animal protein, eat less foods with a high carbohydrate content (potatoes, rice, pasta, sweets, bread) and eat more foods with a high chlorophyll content. Avoid processed salt and eat mineral salts like pHlavor, take supplementary chromium, vanadium. magnesium, potassium, and calcium. Do whole body exercises.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phlavor.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/vibratrim.htm

20. The Thymus Gland (located just under the mid-line of the collar bone) functions in aiding the immune system, and atrophies (shrinks) with age, largely due to increases in dietary and metabolic acids.

Remedy: Take supplements of Glutathione, CLA from pomogranatel, Vitamins A, and E. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help reverse the atrophy of the thymus gland.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

21. Lipofuscin builds up in the brain and dulls memory. Note: Lipofuscin is the name given to finely granular yellow brown pigment granules composed of lipid-containing residues of lysosomal digestion. It is considered one of the aging or "wear and tear" pigments; found in the liver, kidney, heart muscle, adrenals, nerve and ganglion cells. "Liver spots" commonly associated with aging are superficial dermal lipofuscin deposits.

Remedy: Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.to help remove lipofuscin from the brain, or reduce the rate of accumulation, with a doctor's supervision. Take glutathione, which will increase the size and vigor of the circulatory system, thus helping to keep the garbage moving out.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/phruits.htm

22. Kidney efficiency decreases. Our kidneys filter and purifying the blood from dietary and metabolic acids. The kidneys also play a role in regulating blood pressure; monitoring the amount of oxygen in the blood, acting as our body's heat regulator, and producing EPO (Erythropoyetin) to control red blood cell production. As we age, kidney function decreases; red blood cell numbers decrease, and the blood can carry less oxygen.

Remedy: If the red blood cell count is lower than normal, the hematocrit (red blood cell count) can be raised by increasing the dietary intake of chlorophyll foods and drinks. Eliminate all meat in your diet. Drink 1 quart or 1 liter of alkaline green drink per day. Take 1 teaspoon of glutathione 3 times a day.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/water.htm
http://www.phmiracleliving.com/glutathione.htm

23. The circulatory system deteriorates. Babies and young people possess a "dew of youth" in their skin, a result of the of youthful cholesterol content of young skin. By the time we reach middle age, we begin to see cholesterol bound acid, arties and tissues begin to clog up with calcium bound acid, and veins and arteries that have lost flexibility. This causes blood to circulate more slowly, and so less oxygen gets to all parts of the body, including the skin and brain. Dietary and metabolic acid are the root cause of loss of skin tone, skin glow, elasticity, deteriorated brain cells, and organ and gland atrophy.

Remedy: Avoid as much sugar and carbohydrates and protein in your diet, as possible. Glutathione, cysteine, and taurine will help prevent free radical damage, which causes some of the problem. Omega-3, 5, 6 and 9 oil will help lower acidity, increasing the level of healthy red blood cells that will help repair the walls of the circulatory system, and bowel detoxification, oral alkaline chelation will might help to cleanse out micro-calcifications and some metals, thus improving circulation. Take glutathione which is proven to increase the length and breadth of the circulatory system. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help build red blood cells and to dilate the circulatory system, thus helping to increase the flow of blood to all parts of the body. Take chlorophyll and eat green fruits and vegetables to increase blood volume, the percentage of blood that is red blood cells, and hemoglobin which carries oxygen.

24. The Body becomes less sensitive to insulin (Insulin insensitivity).

Remedy: Avoid all sugars (substitute natural sugars like honey or stevia) and complex carbohydrates in your diet, increase healthy fats in your diet from avocado, olive, hemp, pumpkin, sesame, etc., and eliminate all protein in your diet. If you are overweight, try to lose weight through the pH Miracle alkaline diet and low impact and static attraction exercise. Do exercises to increase muscle mass and eliminate acids, which will help to lower high insulin levels. As you eliminate acidity and clear the bowels of undigested protein and carbohydrate, this will reverse your sensitivity to insulin. Take supplements with chromium and vanadium, which will help insulin to work better. Take supplemental sodium, magnesium, potassium, calcium, long chain fats, arginine, carnitine, and especially veggie based glutathione. Buy a meter to measure glucose levels after every meal, and adjust your diet to keep glucose between 70 and 105, (preferably 80 to 95.) As you begin to alkalize your body you will need less insulin (up to 75% in the first 72 hours).

25. Certain acidic hormones such as Cortisol increase with age. Cortisol is produced by the Adrenal Cortex in response to stress. Cortisol is catabolic (destroys or ferments muscle tissue). Cortisol is also known as "the Death hormone", under the theory that the human body will spontaneously end its own life at a certain age.

Remedy: Avoid anger and stress, and very strenuous exercise which will make the body produce cortisol. Take 1 teaspoon of glutathione 3 times a day, which helps you to remain optimistic and to resist stress. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.

Link Found Between Depression, Mold and Dis-Ease

A groundbreaking public health study has found
a connection between damp, moldy homes and depression.

The study, led by Brown University epidemiologist
Edmond Shenassa, is the largest investigation of an
association between mold and mood and is the first
such investigation conducted outside the
United Kingdom.

Shenassa said the findings, published in the American
Journal of Public Health, came as a complete surprise.
In fact, after a few U.K. studies published in the
last decade had suggested a link, Shenassa and his
skeptical team set out to debunk the notion that
any link existed.

"We thought that once we statistically accounted for
factors that could clearly contribute to depression --
things like employment status and crowding -- we would
see any link vanish," said Shenassa, the lead author
of the study and an associate professor in the
Department of Community Health at Brown.

"But the opposite was true. We found a solid association
between depression and living in a damp, moldy home."

Shenassa noted the study, an analysis of data from
nearly 6,000 European adults, does not prove that
moldy homes cause depression. The study wasn't designed
to draw that direct conclusion. However, Shenassa's
team did find a connection, one likely driven by two
factors. One factor is a perceived lack of control
over the housing environment. The other is mold-related
health problems such as wheezing, fatigue, and a cold
or throat imbalance.

"Physical health, and perceptions of control, are linked
with an elevated risk for depression," Shenassa said,
"and that makes sense. If you are sick from mold, and
feel you can't get rid of it, it may affect your mental
health."

The study was a statistical analysis of data from the
Large Analysis and Review of European Housing and Health
Status (LARES), a survey on housing, health, and place
of residence conducted in 2002 and 2003 by the World
Health Organization (WHO). To conduct the survey,
WHO interviewers visited thousands of homes in eight
European cities and asked residents a series of
questions, including if they had depressive symptoms
such as decreased appetite, low self-esteem, and
sleep disturbances. WHO interviewers also made visual
checks of each household, looking for spots on walls
and ceilings that indicate mold.

Shenassa's team analyzed LARES data from 5,882 adults
in 2,982 households.

"What the study makes clear is the importance of
housing as indicator of health, including mental
health," Shenassa said. "Healthy homes can promote
healthy lives."

Shenassa and his team are conducting follow-up research
to see if mold does, indeed, directly cause depression.
Shenassa said that given the results of the current
study, he wouldn't be surprised if there is a
cause-and-effect association.

Molds emit mycotoxins or acids, and some research has
indicated that these aicid mold toxins can affect the
nervous system or the immune system or impede the
function of the frontal cortex, the part of the brain
that plays a part in impulse control, memory, problem
solving, sexual behavior, socialization, and
spontaneity.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research
microbiologist, "yeast and molds are the evidence of
rotting or putrefying matter. The result of rotting
or putrefying matter are the acidic wastes products of
exotoxins and mycotoxins, that can lead to all sickness
and dis-ease."

No More Chronic Hives - A Personal Testimony

The following is a personal testimony of Fran
who over-came chronic hives by following the
pH Miracle Living Lifestyle and Dietary Plan.

----------------------------------------------

Dear Dr. Young,

Please excuse my interruption in your day but I
must tell you my story how the pH Miracle saved me.

I'm 42 years young today and at the age of 20 I
started breaking out in head to toe chronic hives.
I just had a baby and was given antibiotics, plus
I was catherized several times which I believe
introduced bacteria (acidity) into my body.

I suffered for many long years with no help.

I took Seldane like candy. I'm sure I mixed it
with erthromycin and grapefruit juice. I'm grateful
that I'm not dead. I managed to go into some sort
of remission after practically starving myself to
death.

Everyone kept telling me that it was my nerves. I
always felt like it was something inside my body
not my mind. I desperately began seeking information
and learning as much as possible about allergies
and nutrition.

I had two more bouts with the chronic hives and the
3rd time I discovered the miracle, the pH Miracle.

I went to a naturopathic doctor and through testing
they found that I was very high in citrobacter braakii,
and enterobacter cloacae with off the chart numbers.
I was also very low in good bacteria. My doctors
approach was to kill the bad bacteria using herbs like
Oregano.

I stayed patient, nothing happened. I cleansed, I
detoxed, I did a rotation diet to determine if I
had food allergies. Still nothing happened.

I was skinny, weak, and covered in head to toe hives
with my lips swelling, my eyes swelling. I was one
huge miserable mess.

My sister then gave me the book, The pH Miracle.
I gobbled the information down and immediately began
following the plan. I dedicated myself to a 100%
alkalized diet. I did not know if I would survive
without meat but I did! I felt stronger each day,
my skin became softer, my color came back, my mind
became clear, and the hives disappeared.

I was healed!

Not only did I go 100% alkaline but I replaced all
my good bacteria with a good quality probiotic.
That was the magic that restored my health.

Now, I finally know the answer to why I used to break
out in hives, which I have a long history of since
infancy. My dis-ease caused me to be extremely
chemical sensitive but now that my health is restored
my body can handle the acidic world bombarding me.

I strive towards a naturally, organic lifestyle today
and I have Dr. Young to thank for bringing this
information to the public. I will forever be grateful
for all of his hard work and perseverance.

I have dreams to open up an organic cafe for Alkalinians!
I'm not sure if the world is ready but I'm setting the
stage now. Thank you for your letters and dedication.

Loyal Believer in pH Miracle Living,

HIV/AIDS A Thing of the Past!

Special Reminder: "Crazy, Sexy Cancer" will be
shown on Wednesday, August 29th, at 6 Pacific Time
and 9 Eastern Time on the Learning Channel.

Dr. Robert O. Young is part of this story of a young
woman fighting cancer.

----------------------------------------------------

As many of you already know, the pH Miracle Program
is a preventive, a therapeutic, and a maintenance
dietary and lifestyle regimen which addresses all
disease and most dis-ease found in humans.

One of the most debilitating health challenges known
to the planet is that which we refer to as AIDS, or
Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. I have written
about that from time to time. At the present moment,
there continues to be a discussion or debate over the
legitimacy of the HIV test for AIDS as well as the
exact nature of AIDS itself.

The following is a series of letters shared by an
email group which is involved in the HIV/AIDS discussion.
These are people who have been friends and supporters
of Christine Maggiore and her brave march for love
and justice. Christine lost her little girl several
years ago to medical and administrative incompetence
and since then she has been ensnared in a legal battle
and the search for medical truth and freedom.

Christine's websites are:

WWW.ALIVEANDWELL.ORG

WWW.HPVTRUTH.ORG

WWW.JUSTICEFOREJ.COM

------------------------------------------------------

Friends of Christine,

Back a week or so ago, I wrote a letter to this team
exclaiming that not only was the HIV test a bunch of
baloney, a fact which we all knew anyway, but I also
exclaimed that there is now a cure for AIDS and every
other disease known to man, a fact of which I do not
believe many are aware.

I didn't get much response, so I assume there was a
lot of snickering and head-scratching out there in
cyberspace, and I was more convinced than ever that
this is totally new information.

However, one bold fellow whom I have never met, Joe,
was kind enough to respond to me. He basically said,
as nicely as possible, that I was, perhaps, in so many
words, off my rocker. He said that he would need
verification, despite my effort to point the group
in the direction of information which would begin
the path towards verification. I pointed out the
website address of:

www.articlesofhealth.blogspot.com.

These are articles to help one begin to get up to speed
in the New Biology of Dr. Robert O. Young, among the
very top live and dry blood microscopist on the planet,
a cellular biologist, a nutritionist, and a man who
everyone should know about--even if just to argue
with him.

So, I assume that Joe was not only very busy but
probably not very much convinced about much of
anything that I said, despite the fact that he was
kind enough to write the "rebuttal" letter posted
below.

Anyway, in my book, Joe was chalked up as a gentleman
and a good guy. He even later wrote to me privately
so as not to embarrass me. Now that is a REAL
gentleman. I was happy for him to take off the gloves
in private as he quickly explained that my purposely
general comments about Lipitor were "complete and
utter (expletive deleted.) I liked that. Now that's
a man with whom I can communicate! And above all,
I did appreciate his keeping the ball in the air.

Joe also said that my interpretation about Lipitor was
wrong because "It had nothing to do with acid-alkaline
balance" and that I had not done the research on what
the drug does."

Well, as a matter of fact, Joe was right. I have NOT
done any research on Lipitor. Nor have I done any
research on any other drugs. After years of watching
what drugs do, I am trying to forget how to spell drugs.

My new effort is to learn how to spell kohlrabi,
cabbage, rutabaga, cauliflower, and avocado. And I
encourage ALL OF YOU to stop doing any research on
drugs and start doing research on the cure for all
disease and most dis-ease.

It is spelled A-L-K-A-L-I-N-I-T-Y.

For those of you who have followed the thread, I will
respond to Joe's comments below. I apologize for the
long week delay, but I have been in Sacramento trying
to get the ear of the governor of Kaly-fornia, the
Lieutenant Governor, the Secretary of Health & Human
Services, the AARP California chapter, and the publisher
of a Sacramento newspaper. It is the Governor of every
state in the union who will soon not be able to balance
their budgets because of the uninsured and
unprepared baby-boomers that will bankrupt many states
over the coming decades. It is THOSE governors who
should be interested in a "cure for ALL disease"-­no
matter what blather is espoused at the federal level
by the powerful FDA, AMA, FTC, ACS and all those who
take their marching orders, in one way or another,
from the pharmaceutical industry and the
head-in-the-sand, Pasteur-loving, western,
allopathic scientific medical community.

To save you the trouble of looking up my original
letter, here is what I said. I'll place it in italics
if your computer will cooperate so you can skip it
if you remember what I said or if you simply want to
go right down below to read Joe's comments.

My letter read:

Friends of Christine,

On a couple of scores, it is somewhat amazing to me,
while reading the intelligent email thread below,
that despite the insights shared as to the nature of
the HIV/AIDS phenomenon, there is still so much
confusion, unclarity, and lack of up-to-date awareness
of the advancement of health science.

I have not been a part of the "AIDS" discussions over
the years until I recently had reason to talk with
Christine.

I have news for everyone. There does not have to be
further pain and anguish because the answers to the
"AIDS" phenomenon is published and is well within
the public domain. You no longer need to be held
captive by the grasping pharmaceutical industry and
their morally bankrupt remedies.

The TRUTH is out there in the universe. One can
find it in several places....and it needs to be
inside the conscious awareness of all of us.

I started out by saying "couple of scores." But I
only have time to discuss one of them right now.
Later, I may write about the relatively new Truth
Technology or Truth Science as I see this information
applying to the discussions about "AIDS." There is
now a way to tell the truth or untruth of anything--
any diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, options­ anything
that has a trace of energy in the universe.

This is very important new information, especially
in fighting disease and health challenges. You can
read about it by going to www.veritaspub.com.
There, Dr. David Hawkins explains how you can access
truth at a level that turns the study of spirit or
levels of consciousness into legitimate science.
Many believe that Dr. David Hawkins has written the
most important books in 2,000 years.

The other thing that more or less surprised me is
that some or many or maybe even most of those involved
in this important HIV/AIDS effort appear not to know
that the "AIDS" death sentence is over. I shudder
when I hear us still discuss the "death march" and
so on.

At least it is over for those who understand what I
am saying and are willing to incorporate New Biology
into their lives and their life-style. And it is up
to those of us who DO KNOW that our anguish is over
to point this out to the others.

I do not have "AIDS." I don't even think that I know
of anyone right now who has been diagnosed with "AIDS."
But I have information that is important, and I believe
it is my responsibility to share this information-
especially given my surprise at some of the recent
posts on this topic.

When you read the trail of 150 years of science as
first espoused by Dr. Antoine Bechamp, a scientist
who disagreed with Louis Pasteur and his germ theory,
you will quickly understand that ALLLLLLLLLL allopathic
medicine rests on an incorrect theory.

The body is NOT designed to function on highly acidic
fuel. And yet, our "entire world" feeds us acid--and
lots of it. And this same "acidic ingestion phenomenon"
also feeds the HIV/AIDS phenomenon with acid.....just
as it feeds all disease and most dis-ease.

"AIDS" is undoubtedly many hundreds of different
"disease entities." No two cases of AIDS seem to be
exactly the same thing. There are hundreds of gross
differences as well as subtle nuances of symptoms,
symptom-clusters, and variations on the progression
of the problem. Aids has so many different looks
that it is easy to make the case that there is no
such thing as AIDS simply because it is so poorly
conceptualized, understood, diagnosed, and treated
by western science.

So it is not just the HIV test that is abominable.
The entire "AIDS" concept from start to finish is
one continuous scam brought about by varying levels
of scientific error, educational lockstep, clinical
incompetence, research myopia, journalistic group-think,
medical ego mania, turf wars, power-struggles,
good-ole-boy alliances, pure and unadulterated corporate
greed, and all of it bound up in a capitalistic society
anchored within a moral continuum involving non-existent
to insufficient integrity.

It is now clear to those who have bothered to look.
Our bodies are alkaline by the design of creation....
by the design of Our Creator..... by the design of
Mother Nature....by the design of Divine Providence.
You choose the world that fits your understanding of
creation.

Our bodies are NOT designed to run on acid fuel. Recall
your chemistry....acid is pH 0 - 7 and alkalinity or base
is pH 7 - 14.

You body ABSOLUTELY REQUIRES a primarily alkaline
fuel input. But ALL those suffering from AIDS (and
every other disease known to man) feed their sensitive
bodies with the wrong fuel. Instead of an alkaline
diet, we feed it acid. Meat is acid. Cigarettes
are acid. Sugar is acid. So are oranges, apples,
eggs, most grains, all beer and alcohol, most fruit,
vinegar and salad dressings containing vinegar,
most desserts, soda pop, and on and on and on.

The entire breakfast bar I just visited at a very nice
hotel (and it would be any and all hotels) was almost
totally acidic....sweet rolls, coffee, tea, sugar,
fake sweeteners, waffles, maple syrup, fruit cocktail
in heavy syrup, strawberry topping, reconstituted eggs,
bacon, sausage links, white toast, muffins, raisin
brain cereal....and so on. Granted, a healthy person
who needs 20% acid in their diet could have had raisin
bran and milk. That's what I ate. Milk is only
slightly acidic, although it has other downsides.
I could have had strawberries as they are only
slightly acidic, but these were in a heavy sugary
sauce-quite acidic.

Nonetheless, a healthy person need not give up all
acidic food. Thus, I went back to my suite and ate
the slightly alkaline cantaloupe, some almonds, and
a greenish-yellow banana. In three days, however,
that same banana will become acidic as it ripens.

Tomorrow, I won't even go to the breakfast bar. I'll
just cook some quinoa and top it off with little
tomatoes, avocado chunks and pHlavor Salts.

A person with "AIDS" should give up all acidic food
until the many, many symptoms of "AIDS" have disappeared.
One cannot destroy what we call AIDS or any other
disease....on an ACID diet.

Other things, besides food, also create acid. A toxic
pillow with toxic material from the Monsantos of the
world can hurt you. Thus for about 1/3 of your life,
your eyes, ears, nose and mouth conduct some sort of
unconscious love affair with these pillows....pillows
stuffed with God-only-knows-what inside of them.....!!!

Also, one of the greatest creators of acid is STRESS....
fear, anger, worry, frustration, sadness, alienation,
guilt...and so on.

The solution to these health problems starts with
an understanding of New Biology which demonstrates
that the body is ALKALINE by DESIGN and ACIDIC by
FUNCTION.

How do we know the body is ALKALINE by design?


We know because we are born with a slightly alkaline
blood of pH 7.365. If the blood goes even a few points
in either direction, you are very sick. Worse, you are
dead or near dying if your blood drops as low as a
neutral pH of 7.0. Yet, all the foods that I mentioned
earlier are acidic....or below pH 7.0. It's like your
body temperature. The pH can't vary much without chaos
to your body.

Even the water that most of us drink is 7.0 (neutral)
or below. Municipal water systems are atrocious.
So, if we drink a gallon of water every day like good
little boys and girls.....are we helping ourselves?
No, because the water should be at least at the level
of the blood or higher. Below that, we have only managed
to create more work for our body to try and maintain
a blood of pH 7.365.

What does it mean when I say that the body is acidic by
function? It means that everything we do---walk, talk,
work, play, think, breath, sleep, dream, and write
emails-everything we do burns energy and leaves an acidic
residue

Everything we do creates acid.

So if just everyday living creates acid, and if we also
eat 95% acidic food from America's grocery stores, if
we breath acidic air, if we wear acidic synthetic fabrics,
if we curl up under a 45% acidic polyester blanket, and
if we also live in our automobile filled with acidic
synthetic materials oozing molecules into our air space...
what magic of the body could possibly maintain our blood
at its required level of pH 7.365?

Well, it really can't. The body can not easily do
that, especially over time. But it certainly tries.
And just as the Energizer bunny eventually stops
functioning properly, so does our bodily system get
bogged down and depleted.

Make no mistake. The body is reasonably self-correcting.
The human body is sufficiently brilliant, ingenious,
and adaptive---not to mention sacred---that it can
manage to keep us around for a period (it can continue
to house our spirit) while we inadvertently work at
poisoning ourselves...and our blood.

How does the body compensate or adapt itself in service
of the blood....you might ask?

Many ways. The body leeches important base minerals...
alkaline minerals....from the bones, for instance.
It needs the alkalinity that we are not giving it,
and so it steals it from our own bones, tissues,
ligaments, cartilage, and so on.

Meanwhile, the body stores the acid to keep it away
from the blood. For instance, it stores the acid in fat.
The body creates acid-fat. Ten pounds. A hundred pounds.
Fat is acid shielded from the rest of the body...and
specifically shielded from the blood.

To protect us, the body also creates acidic tumors,
cysts, polyps, bumps and masses, caked intestines with
many, many pounds of gunk for which I have no name.
Some corpses of U.S. citizens, at autopsy, have had
as much as 40 pounds of ACIDIC gunk found stored in
their gastrointestinal system....all because of the
body's desperate effort to cope with the ONSLAUGHT of
our acidic lifestyle and keep it from the tissues and
blood.

I will quote here one of my favorite passages from
The pH Miracle by Dr. Robert O. Young and Shelley
Redford Young. It can be found on page 13, and for
me, it pretty much summarizes what I am saying:

" We're starting from the premise that of all the
balances the human body strives to maintain, the most
crucial is the one between acid and base (alkaline).
The body will go to great lengths to maintain the
appropriate, slightly basic, nature of its blood.
But it is all too easy and far too common for body
tissues to become acidic. Such an imbalance sets
the stage for chaos, opening the door to sickness
and disease. Overacidification of body fluids and
tissues underlies all disease, and general "dis-ease"
as well. For one thing, it is only when it is acidic
that the body is vulnerable to germs--in healthy base
balance, germs can't get a foothold. Furthermore,
acids are the expression of all sickness and disease.
In short, good health requires a body in proper
acid/base balance. Proper diet (like the one laid
out in this book) is the only way to ensure that."

For instance, in reading the recent emails,
when Joe says:

"the earth is a toxic wasteland,".... I translate that
in my head to "the earth is a toxic wasteland of
ACIDIC material."

"We use alcohol and drugs to numb our emotional pain,"....
to me means "we use ACIDIC alcohol and ACIDIC drugs to
numb...."

"We lack enough omega-3 fatty acids"...translates to
me as we lack the alkaline from appropriate fats to
keep our brain functioning...."

"Worst of all, we take toxic pharmaceutical
"medications" ......says to me "we take acidic
'medications'."

"...essential metabolic processes...." to me means
a pH acid/alkaline balanced metabolism..."

" Lipitor....causes neuromuscular destruction"
means that "Lipitor, a highly acidic and synthetic
material, eventually causes an acidic build-up in
the neuromuscular area of the body that brings
about its destruction...." and so on.

In other words, New Biology has isolated the common
denominator in ALL disease processes. That common
denominator is the acid-alkaline balance. Thus,
there is ONLY ONE DISEASE and you may simply call
it acidosis. There is only one CURE and it is
called ALKALINIZATION or acid-alkaline balancing.

THUS, AIDS IS A THING OF THE PAST----although it is
up to you.

I would like nothing more than for one or more
wealthy individuals fighting against AIDS to step
forward with the funds to conduct the large scale
study that will stun the allopathic medical community.
I know enough establishment doctors (MDs) who are
sufficiently disillusioned with western medicine,
at medical schools like Harvard, who would help us
set up the research structure.

MONEY IS THE ONLY OBSTACLE. I would like to see
100 people suffering from AIDS, randomly chosen
from a large population, go on a 100% alkaline
diet. Matched against them would be 100 AIDS
victims with their normal dietary regimen.

The results would set the medical world on its
ear!

Next, we would do the same thing with, for instance,
Parkinsons. Then breast cancer. Then liver cancer.
Then Alzheimers. Then arthritis. You get the
picture. The health system worldwide would be
revolutionized throughout the world in little more
than a decade.

All of the early research could be accomplished in
just a few years. Meanwhile, you and I can alkalize
our system in a few weeks or months. And if you have
AIDS, you will begin recovering very quickly.

One of the reasons that the research could be done
so quickly is that balancing ones acid/alkaline
system WORKS SO QUICKLY that symptoms are often gone
in weeks or just a few months.

If you want to learn more about how to be disease
free and become vibrant, clear and energetic for the
rest of your natural life, then I would direct you

So that was my letter. I wasn't trying to pick on
Joe by using his examples. I had chosen them at
random from the thread of this topic so I could
explain how as I read I constantly "translate" in
my head western scientific verbiage and thought
processes. I do this so I can maintain my sanity
and not tear up allopathic books and journal
articles.

Below was Joe's kind and timely response to my
somewhat lengthy dissertation. I will interleave
my comments taken from the New Biology of
Dr. Robert O. Young as regards acid-alkaline
balancing to achieve optimal health. I will
also italicize my comments so your eye can quickly
pick out the transition from Joe's words to my
comments.

Subject: acidity, alkalinity, etc

Patrick,

First, Christine has asked us to limit the thread
to the addresses; Please in the future use reply
or reply-all to this email. Thanks.

Second, I think we'll need a bit more verification
of the line of reasoning that all people need to do
is to change their diet and then everything will be
fine. I'd like to know, for instance, how animals
in the wild (mammals and reptiles), who rarely get
ill, survive so well despite the fact that they eat
very acidic foods that are similar to those that
we eat (although I must admit they don't cook their
meats and vegetables).

---------------------------------------------------

Many such animals migrate to clay lakes and eat
their fill in order to buffer the acids from the
foods they eat. In fact, they risk their lives to
eat clay! There exists a great documentary from
BBC on the animals of the Amazon. They all eat
a smectite clay on a daily basis to buffer acids.

And how are there people in the world (I'm a prime
candidate) who eat many of those terribly acidic
things and rarely, if ever, get ill?

Joe, you are apparently a fellow with very strong
and healthy blood. Maybe you are blessed with good
genes and heritage to boot. Yet, "strong blood"
does not mean that your are healthy. How many
times do we hear of the guy in perfect shape,
out running his daily 5 miles, who drops dead of
a heart attack. No symptoms. No evidence.
Picture of health. Nothing had been picked up
by his doctor, etc. etc. Yet, a live blood
examination or a dried blood examination will show
us the evidence of our poor dietary and lifestyle
choices. It is those poor and misguided dietary
choices that are, perhaps, Joe, hidden away quietly
in your body. I have personally seen many people
with no apparent symptoms do a live blood analysis
and be "blown away" by evidence of serious health
challenges which had not yet manifested outward
symptoms and which had not been identified by
examinations performed by western science.
The simple fact is that nobody gets away with
eating acid for long. It's just a matter of time
for all of us.

----------------------------------------------------

The centenarians of Okinawa eat terribly acid foods,
and live very long, healthy lives. I have been ill
just once in the last 10 years, and it was because
I was in a situation where I was vitamin C deficient
and let myself get physically run down
(sleep deprivation).

----------------------------------------------------

Quantity of life is not the same as quality of life.
In our country, most people in the 60's are on one
or more drugs. By 70, two or three drugs, by 80,
4-5 drugs. My wonderful aunt at 93 is on 11 drugs.

Holy cow!

She's alive, but she often feels miserable.
The Okinawan's live long, but they are not necessarily
all that healthy. If they would eat a more alkaline
diet, who knows? Maybe they would live to 200
years old.

----------------------------------------------------

All mammals and reptiles except for humans, primates,
guinea pigs, the red bat, and a couple of other small
animals, produce prodigious amounts of ascorbate
(a mildly acidic substance, I might add) in their
livers or kidneys, at a rate thousands of times as
much as most humans ingest. This relative ascorbate
deficiency is, in turn, the primary cause of
cardiovascular disease (see references below). It
is the belief of many naturopaths that it is
antioxidant (aka ascorbate) status that is the main
determinant of health, not acidity or alkalinity.

Furthermore, stomach acid and bile - dumped into our
duodenum by the bile duct - are horrifically acidic,
and must be in order for proper digestion to take place.

-------------------------------------------------------

Because of fermentation, we have lots of ascorbate in
our system. Also, an equal amount of bicarbonate is
created in the stomach, pylorus glands, bile, the
pancreas, and the intestines to alkalize the food in
preparation for biological transformation into new
blood in the small intestine. The required pH for
making healthy new blood out of the food we eat is
8.4.

-------------------------------------------------------

I would like to see some definitive research that
shows the health/illness history of people who follow
your "alkaline" regimen, how many of them succumb to
the ordinary diseases of humankind (colds, "flu",
cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, etc.)
when compared, for instance, to people who consume
an ordinary human diet along with high levels of
antioxidant supplements (vitamin C, grapeseed extract,
quercetin, etc.) to compensate for the fact that
their livers cannot synthesize ascorbate.

-------------------------------------------------------

Well, they don't get anything but longer years of
health and vitality. And as you suggest, so would
I like to see that "definitive research." That's
what I proposed in my letter. Dr. Young has reported
in his many books the hundreds of case studies and
thousands of testimonials over the years. He has
also conducted some small scale studies. BUT WHO
IN THE WORLD IS GOING TO PUBLISH THIS INFORMATION?

Does anyone think for one minute that the $400 billion
cancer industry, four times larger than the automobile
industry, is going to try and discover if organic and
alkaline vegetables might soon replace 25,000
oncologists, hundreds of hospitals, thousands of
clinics, and decimate the entire pharmaceutical
industry?

The pH Miracle Plan has worked for well over 100,000
folks in 72 countries around the world. This week,
please watch the documentary this Wednesday about
"Crazy Sexy Cancer" on the The Learning Channel
on Wednesday evening, August 29th. I think it is
early on the west coast. Dr. Young appears in that
fascinating documentary. It tells the story of
how a woman with cancer survives. Dr. Young
will also be featured in a major documentary
by a well-known, Academy Award winning producer,
which will compare the different anti-aging
lifestyles and diets which will includes the
pH Miracle Plan.

----------------------------------------------------

Kind regards
Joe

The next day, Joe added another paragraph that he
had meant to include in the letter above and my
comment is posted below his addendum.
He said:

Addendum: I meant to add that rate of ascorbate
production in animals is hundreds of times that
of typical human ingestion of this nutrient in the
industrialized countries, not thousands. Typical
human ingestion is 30-60 mg per day in the US,
and typical production of ascorbate in animals
is 3000-14000 mg per day when scaled to adult
human body weight. Ascorbate ingestion in the
developing countries can be as low as just a few
milligrams per day. This is the cause of Sudden
Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and astronomical
rates of infant death (as high as 50% in some
regions of Africa). See Kalokerinos,
Every Second Child.

Regards
Joe

-------------------------------------------------------

I have several thoughts. First, ascorbate is a waste
product of the degeneration of matter. Ascorbate is
what happens when human cells ferment. We have lots
of ascorbate in our system. SIDS and those astronomical
death rates are caused by way too much acid from the
wrong diet, the wrong breast milk, the wrong baby
formula, the wrong water, and an entirely wrong
nutritional and dietary regimen. Almost all the stuff
we ship over to developing countries amounts to garbage.
Plenty of it comes from our foreign "aid" and the
"good will" of many world foundations. Almost all
of it comes from a food industry which feeds us lousy
food which is 95% acidic. What we should be sending
third world impoverished countries are ways to alkalize
and ionize their water systems, organic vegetables
flash frozen, and supplements which will help them
conform to the alkaline design of their body.

Lastly friends, I have a sobering and telling comment
or two to make. Over the years, Dr. Young has had
plenty of well known M.D. medical scientists who
have privately vouched for his science. And yet
their medical hospitals, medical schools and
research laboratories are not about to test the
theories of a man whom they think must be a
fruit-cake because he doesn't believe in Louis
Pasteur's germ theory. We have a multiple trillion
dollar medical industry set up based on the germ theory.
Can we blame those M.D.s because they did not want to
risk their jobs, grant funds, and reputations to "go
to the mat" to fight for Dr. Young's research funding?
I don't think so.

Imagine if I came up with a few drops of formula that
we could add to water to make our automobiles run on
my solution. And we could sell it almost as cheaply
as water. Would my life be safe? How long would I
live? I don't know. I do know that such an energy
product would be considered disruptive technology.

Dr. Young's science is also disruptive technology,
and it is here now. It will seriously disrupt
economic stability for awhile.

Further, a few years back, Dr. Young did have a well
known western medical establishment that agreed to
test the pH Miracle dietary Plan on AIDS patients.
However, when they contacted the AIDS patient-candidates
for the research, they could not find any patients who
were willing to go off their medication to try for a
cure. I assume that among other things, a good deal of
fear was operating.

There are many social, psychological, cultural and
economic secondary gains for many of the problems
and illnesses that are present in our society. I am
working on ways to identify the funds and the
locations to conduct the randomized, large scale,
double-blind, placebo-controlled, studies that are
needed to convince the western scientific community
that they have gone down the wrong path.

My invitation still stands. If you have ideas,
contacts or can open doors to help us create a
venue for appropriate research into New Biology,
I would love to hear from you. You too may wish
to help fund pH balancing programs, research and
education across the planet. If so, please contact
me at votf@votf.com. I would be happy to discuss
how we might collaborate to accomplish the goals
that Dr. Young began articulating more than two
decades ago. It is time to bring New Biology into
the full light of the human race.

Be well.

An Email From An Alkalizing and Energizing Medical Doctor

One of my Microscopists, Rosalyn, recently wrote
me and said:

Dear Dr. Young.

Conrad, a physician, has been my friend and client
for a few months now. He has some comments to make
about The New Biology which you can read below.
Would you please go over Dr. Conrad's observations
and give us your wisdom. Blessings, Rosalyn

From: Dr. Conrad
To: phmiraclesecrets@aol.com
Subject: RE: Understanding the Common Denominator
for All Health and Dis-ease!

Dear Dr. Young,

Wow.

First, as a physician alkalizing and super-hydrating
and also spending over $600/month to do it, I would
like to address some of the comments in Dr. Sobota's
"Common Denominator for All Health and Dis-Ease"
email that you sent to all of us on Monday, August
20, 2007.

Since you printed Dr. Sobota's letter without comment,
I assume that you must agree with most of it. I
included the first paragraph of that lengthy
dissertation below my letter. And yet, I can also
relate to a good part of it. But as a practicing
physician, I must ask, "what is it inside of me that
does not seem to tolerate a narrative that has so
many competing elements with my own original belief
system and education?"

Second, I have been living this pH Miracle lifestyle
for 5 months, now. Although I have lost 15 lbs. which
I didn't really need to lose and have also become
weaker, I still experience some element of muscle
pains, psoriasis and other dis-eases. That is not
to say there hasn't been improvement in these areas,
but just that the progress is slow, with some rebound.

The mind-set of probably most Americans is "fix me
quickly". If you then say to them: "no alcohol,
caffeine, soda, eggs, dairy, vinegar and you have
to drink a whole lot of water," you better also tell
them that they will be going to the bathroom every
hour or more. In that case, I think that the
alkalizing diet can be a "hard sell" to many,
even those with significant dis-ease.

Is all the medical scientific literature wrong?
Is that really possible? Perhaps traditional
science it is "right" based on the average American
diet or the world diet. Perhaps if you are willing
to be very patient and "radical" like the pH Miracle
diet, only then is modern medicine to be seen as
more of a curse than a cure.

What about trauma and plastic surgery? What about
the scientific method? And how has scientific method
been applied to the alkalizing regimen?

I sincerely hope the New Biology is correct, not only
for myself but for everyone who is willing to radically
change their eating and drinking habits. But for those
who won't or can't, modern medicine is a blessing.

Lastly, to eat in an alkalizing way, one must either
spend a lot of time preparing food or hire someone
to do so. And that's one more impediment.

Sincerely,
Dr.Conrad Smith M.D.

From: The pH Miracle Living Center
Sent: Monday, August 20, 2007 1:02 AM

Subject: Understanding the Common Denominator
for All Health and Dis-Ease!

Dear Dr. Conrad,

As a follower of the pH Miracle science, both
theory and clinical practice, for some time I
have felt a growing need to write this review
because, first, there have been some rather
confused discussions about "The pH Miracle for
Weight Loss" including the entire pH acid-alkaline
balancing science. Yet, it is not complicated.
The beauty is that Dr. Young's science has clearly
articulated the infrastructure for understanding
the long sought common denominator for all health,
disease and dis-ease.

....snip letter from Sobota.....

Then, I sent back this letter to Rosalyn and
Dr. Conrad Smith:

Dear Friends Rosalyn and Dr. Conrad,

Thanks, Rosalyn, for forwarding Dr. Conrad's
thoughts and questions. As a scientist and
clinician, it is, of course, difficult to address
his comments without asking many questions.
And as your new friend, Dr. Conrad, I would be
glad to talk at greater length if you feel the need.
I read your thoughts a couple of times. I can
relate. And despite a lack of information, I can
also respond at a certain level.

Dr. Conrad, when you say you have been "living
this lifestyle for 5 months," I only have a general
idea of what that means. It always seems to mean
different things to different people--even though
it often means something much more disciplined to
me than to some of the people I talk with.

For instance, do you mean one avocado per day or
four? You may be juicing every morning, or you
may be juicing every other morning, or just one
day a week. Of course, I like everyone to juice
every day. It leaves less margin for error, right?

You may be exercising twice a week or you may be
exercising aerobically 30 minutes every day. I
would really need to know lots of things to put
it all into my intuitive computer which is
connected to 54 years of my earthly observations.
As a physician, you understand that whole issue.

There are many things that I just don't know about
your situation, and so it is impossible for me to
make many specific comments. That is why, Dr.
Conrad, when you work with your own patients, I
suspect you prefer to do so face-to-face so you
can continue to blend your medical art with your
medical science. I find that many people are
"slow" to rebound to their original health,
especially when they are older, and especially
when their social circumstances "force them" to
deviate from the plan from time to time. Again,
I don't know either of these parameters in your
situation.

And when it comes to healing our patients, we have
to remember that after all is said and done, there
is much to suggest that it is the love and wisdom
of the personal helping agent that heals as much
as the advice extended or the potions administered.

It's hard to operate on oneself out of a "cold sterile
book" no matter how soft and cuddly the author tries
to make it sound.

I am hoping that the "$600 per month" figure you
mention is somewhat higher than the average. I am
hoping that even before they read our books, everyone
is already drinking healthier water from some sort
of bottled or purified source. We know the problems
with most municipal water systems.

Then if people are already buying water from stores,
and then when they anti-up for one of my water
machines (which alkalizes, mineralizes, ionizes,
structures and purifies the water all at once),
they actually end up paying only 10 cents per
gallon or so over time. These people will actually
be saving substantial money by not paying $1 to
$5 per gallon for inferior water in a store. And
they don't have to be lugging water jugs around either.

I also know for a fact that many people who have been
on the pH Miracle diet for awhile do not feel a need
to see a doctor any more. Or they do so very rarely.
They feel very much in control of their health.
I do suspect that a few people go in to see the ole
family doc just to gloat a bit, a human ritual from
lower consciousness that, I hasten to add, I do not
recommend. :-)

And many New Biology adherents also tell me that
they take pH books to their doctors to try and help
their long-standing doctor friends "expand their
thinking." I have long said that it's better to
"expand the box" than to think "outside the box."

Many of New Biology adherents are saving thousands
of dollars each year because clinical visits and
tests have diminished. Very few are still taking
any kind of expensive, acidic, and the Trojan horse
of pharmaceutical drugs.

So in the long run, for the great majority of people,
I know that the pH miracle diet will save them a ton
of money. It will also save the insurance companies
from claims, save insureds from skyrocketing premiums,
save corporations from sick days and diminished
productivity, save children from sick days and
missed school, save the elderly from a greatly
diminished quality of life, and save the governor
of any State from nightmares every year when the
State's budget comes around.

Here in the State of Kaly-fornia, I see that our
smiling governor finally marshaled the forces to
pass a budget a couple of months late. And to do
so, he had to cut 700 million dollars from some
of the people who need help the most. It was sad
that that was the price of finally arriving at
closure.

I only hope that our governor will sit down with
me one day soon and let me begin to help him solve
the present health crisis and the even greater
health crisis just ahead. It is no secret that
our federal and state governments have very
serious problems given the present, broken-down,
allopathic, pharmacy-controlled, health model.

Just about every State governor in America is
wondering how they are going to pay the health
care and long-term-care for the millions of
baby-boomers who are turning 60 this year--the
same boomers who will live many more quantity of
years with much less quality of years. I talk
to senior citizens from time to time who are
actually taking more than a dozen medications!

Those unconscionable drugs are the reason that
Big Pharma dominates the New York Stock Exchange.
Forget the Fortune 100. Just look at how many drug
companies are on the Fortune 10! It's mind-boggling.

Dr. Conrad, if you are losing more weight than is
healthy for you, then we would have to take a look
at your diet. Obviously, your weight has something
to do with calories as well as pH balancing. Some
alkaline foods have more calories than others.

Some have more protein for muscle building than others.
And so on. We could talk about that.

If we could ever get the WEGOS (the western God of
science) to begin conducting serious research into
New Biology, we may find all sorts of interesting
relationships among:

a) the trillion of cells in the body,

b) the power of the various quality of sensory input
as it relates to the function of the bodily cells,

c) the impact of emotional states and the psychological
power of the mind,

d) the possible benefits of controlling the mind and
stilling the senses,

e) the impact of the intellect and its complicated
belief systems and bodily function, and

f) the varying results of different levels of
consciousness or "spiritual states."

There is already evidence that people who calibrate
over 600 on David Hawkins Scale of Consciousness
can heal themselves while eating food that would not
seem to be balanced according to the percentages of
acid-alkaline food and drink that I recommend.

And yet, there are less than a thousand people on the
planet who calibrate over 600, and so I believe my
science will be applicable for another century or so.
Maybe one day we will learn a lot more about "mind
over matter."

And for me you make a somber point when you suggest
that the medical scientific literature may be right
based on the average American or world diet. But I
would not give up my position quite that easily.

I would rather argue, in a friendly and understanding
way, of course, since I'm a good guy, that the
scientific literature is still wrong because it was
based on foundational information that was incorrect
when they first bought into Pasteur's germ theory.
Western medicine then proceeded to build 150 years
of convoluted technology on top of a theory which
I predict will necessarily tumble one day because
it's built upon the clay of Louis Pasteur's
"science" if not on the moment-to-moment direction
of his monumental ego.

However, I hasten to add, as some historians have
it, that Pasteur's ego may have begun to abate
towards his latter days when he is reported by
some to have revised or perhaps even recanted his
germ theory!

And your logic, friend Conrad, is at least mildly
suspect. When you say the so-called "modern
medicine" might be right based on our diets, I
would ask you the following:

1. Do we allow the speeding driver to continue
driving at 100 m.p.h. just because he has been
driving that fast for so long and because so far
he has had only minor accidents and because so
far the physics of the roadways have not achieved
their final victory?

2. Do we allow the head-strong child to continue
drawing on the wall just because he enjoys it and
because the once perfect wall is already compromised
and we have been doing an adequate job of touching
up behind him?

3. Do we really allow the proverbial drunken
sailor-on-leave to have another bottle of brandy
because, after all, he is already drunk out of
his mind and he should be able to "sleep it off"
in the morning?

Well, I am not advocating a law forbidding
chocolate sundaes, birthday cakes, or orange
groves. I am however, advocating more research
and public education. I am advocating laws that
provide incentives for people to learn about
and apply preventive nutrition and lifestyles
rather than much more expensive and dangerous
surgery, drugs and radiation.

And is eating the greens of the earth really all
that "radical" to use your word? I believe that
it is the allopathic medical interventions based
on cutting, burning, and the use of poisonous
potions that I deem to be "radical." So far,
I have not found a pharmaceutical prescription
drug to be anything other than acid. And I have
never heard of overdosing on broccoli.

I am only advocating that we find a way to return
to a course of water, salt, chlorophyll and fat
that Mother Earth provides for us and which course
allows us to stay in a healthy balance between
our complex mind-body-spirit vessel and the physics
of Mother Earth. Meanwhile, we'll be in better
"harmony" to try and understand our relationship
to the entire universe.

And you are 100% right about the "hard sell"
issue--at least for many people. We both know
the type of person who sucks on a cigarette
in his hospital bed following lung surgery.
If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.

And if you think eating healthy is unattractive,
wait until you see that acidic hospital food.... :-)

Next, I would NOT say that "all the medical scientific
literature is WRONG." I would say that their THEORY
is wrong. Much research is brilliant in terms of
its methodology, analysis and discussion. I have
problem with their literature review. If they were
really to do a good job of controlling for the
important independent variables, somewhere back a
few decades ago the literature would suggest
controlling for alkaline/acid levels. Well, I
won't hold my breath.

The allopathic system, counting the gross revenues
and capital assets of doctors, medical employees,
hospitals, clinics, med schools, laboratories,
equipment, educational investments and so on....
would easily climb into the many trillions of
dollars. Everything I speak and write about is
a threat to a good part of all of that. So, Lord
help me. Just give me a simple fight with City
Hall any day. Because for now, there are days
when it feels like I'm in conflict with the
whole world.

Dr. Conrad, I know what you are trying to say
when you say that modern medicine is a blessing.
And many philosophical and spiritual systems or
thought processes suggest that EVERYTHING is good,
everything is God's work, and everything is as it
should be. I see much to commend that way of
viewing the world. Certainly in this spiritual
framework there are no mistakes. The universe is
unfolding according to a blueprint which we could
not imagine even if we were to expand our minds
a thousand percent. So I don't lose any sleep
over other theory and practice.

Dr. Conrad and Rosalyn, be well, keep at it, call
me if you like. Come join us in California for
a retreat one day soon.

Til then,

In Love and Light,

Water Quality and pH Miracle Ionizers

Most people think water is just plain old H2O and is
the same regardless of where it comes from - whether
a bottle the tap or a well. The truth is water
quality varies widely throughout the US.

The variation depends on many factors. There are two
basic causes of variation - natural environmental
factors and contaminants caused by man.

Contaminants tend to be man-made generally but not
in all cases. There are naturally occurring sources
of some things considered a contaminant. A chief
factor influencing contaminant type and concentration
level include proximity to sources of pollutants such
as population centers, industry, livestock and/or
agricultural operations etc.

Natural causes of variation in water are in a large
part due to the source of the water supply. Some
examples of common water sources are aquifers,
rivers, reservoirs, run-off, wells, springs etc.

These variations in source contribute to the difference
in dissolved mineral content in water. These variables
cause water to have very different properties, such as
taste and smell or to "behave" or perform differently
around the house, especially in an ionizing unit.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/jupiter.htm

In general terms we have "hard" or "soft" waters.
Hard water tends to have a high concentration of
minerals. Soft water is low in mineral content.

The Scaling Effect of Hard and Soft Water

If you live in a hard water area you know it is
more difficult to form lather with soap while
bathing or performing ordinary household washing
chores. Perhaps you have on occasion noticed mineral
deposits on your cooking dishes, or rings of
insoluble soap scum in your bathtub. These are not
signs of poor housekeeping, but are rather signs
of hard water from the water supply. Hard water is
water that contains calcium or magnesium mineral ions
with a charge of +2. These ions do not pose any
health threat, but they can engage in reactions that
leave insoluble mineral deposits.

Hard water mineral deposits or scaling, is the
precipitation of minerals which form lime scale.
Scale can clog pipes and can decrease the life of
toilet flushing units. It can coat the inside of tea
and coffee pots, and clog and ruin water heaters -
and of course do the same thing to your water
ionizer.

Very soft water can corrode the metal pipes in which
it is carried and as a result the water may contain
elevated levels of cadmium, copper, lead and zinc.

Hard and Soft Water and pH Miracle Ionizer Performance

A pH Miracle ionizer requires mineral content to operate.
It is the minerals which carry the electrical charge.
Water that has no minerals, such as reverse osmosis
or distilled water has no pathway for the
electrolysis or "ionization" to occur.

It is important to note that all water found in nature
has dissolved mineral content, so these types of "pure"
water are a man-made phenomenon.

The more mineral content your water has the more easily
your pH Miracle ionizer will alter the water - the
better performance you will experience. The less mineral
content, the harder it is for your ionizer to create
alteration in your water - or, the weaker performance
you will experience. In simple terms a pH Miracle ionizer
will perform better with hard water and will have a
harder time with softer water.

http://www.phmiracleliving.com/jupiter.htm

It is not recommended to use an ionizer without
pretreatment in areas with water that has the
following measurements: hardness over 200ppm (
11.5 grains); and/or TDS over 400ppm; and/or Calcium
above 50ppm.

Hard water in the US

According to the United States Geological Survey,
85% of US homes have hard water.

The softest waters occur in parts of the New England,
South Atlantic-Gulf, Pacific Northwest, and Hawaii
regions. Moderately hard waters are common in many
of the rivers of the Tennessee, Great Lakes, Pacific
Northwest, and Alaska regions. Hard and very hard
waters are found in some of the streams in most of
the regions throughout the country. Hardest waters
(greater than 1,000 mg/L) are in streams in Texas,
New Mexico, Kansas, Arizona, parts of Florida and
southern California.
