                            Alkalinity and Disease



When the body has an alkaline/acidic imbalance the immune system becomes weak, creating a foundation for disease. Low energy, chronic fatigue, obesity, diabetes, joint pain, premature aging and hormone concerns all stem from a high degree of acidity in the body. Most healthcare and wellness experts are now looking at Alkalinity as being the best way for the body to address the health issues caused by acidity. That is why Alkaline water and Alkaline water-producing machines are becoming very popular.

The body’s pH (potential of hydrogen) is the measure of the alkalinity or acidity of a solution. It is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. The lower the pH the more acidity, the higher the pH the more alkalinity. A major function of our immune system is to maintain a pH balance. Stress and high acidic diets are the two major reasons for high acidity in the body.

The theory of an acid/alkaline imbalance being the root cause of disease is currently a popular one but not a new one. According to Herbal Doc, on the www.naturalhealthschool.com website, William Howard Hay published a ground-breaking book in 1933, “A New Health Era”, which maintained that all disease is caused by autotoxication (or self-poisoning) due to acid accumulation in the body. Foods such as wheat, white flour, pastries, pork, homogenized milk, beer and soft drinks have the most acid. If you live in a stressful environment, and have a high acidic diet, your ability to fight off disease will be compromised.

I was recently introduced to a product out of Korea called Bamboo salt www.mybamboosalt.com. It was created over one hundred years ago by the legendary herbalist Insan Kim. I have been asked to assist in introducing the Insan Bamboo product line into the American wellness market. I truly believe that Insan Bamboo salt products are one of the best ways to restore the natural alkaline balance in the body. I have an excellent antioxidant water ionizer made by www.waterworks4u.com . It costs over $1,000.00 and is well worth the price. But when I tested a small amount of Bamboo Salt in tap water the pH was 10, compared to a pH of 8.0 from my machine.

It is not common to equate salt with healing but Insan Bamboo Salt products have been used to detoxify vital organs such as the kidneys, intestines, liver, bladder and to address diabetes, arthritis, fibroids and a host of other issues for over a century. I will join grand master Mantak Chia and a growing number of Taoist wellness practitioners in promoting the use of Insan Bamboo Salt products as an option for a natural wellness strategy.
