If you’re getting six to eight hours of sleep at night and you still have to drag yourself through eight seemingly endless hours of work during the day, it’s time for a fatigue check-up. Here are five acidic fatigue factors you might want to consider:

Acidic Fatigue Factor #1: Acid Blood or Anemia or I Eat Too Much Sugar and Animal Protein Dis-Ease.

You may be bleeding internally and not know it – bleeding ulcers, for instance, may be slowly dragging you down. Kidney dis-ease can also be the result of acidic blood or anemia. In women, acid caused fibroid tumors or acid uterine polyps can be the culprit. Blood loss can lead to a deficiency of hemoglobin, the alkalizing protein in the blood that carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. The end result when your organs and tissues don’t get enough alkalizing oxygen is fatigue. Other tell-tale acidic symptoms are irritability, dizziness, and feeling cold. A simple live blood test can show acidic blood anemia, and fatigue or Stage 1 acidosis begins to diminish after only a month of alkalizing and energizing with the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet.

Acidic Fatigue Factor #2: Hypothyroidism or I Eat Too Much Crap Dis-ese.

If you are depressed, sluggish, and generally run-down, you may have an under-active acidic thyroid due to an acidic lifestyle and diet. The thyroid is a tiny gland with a big job; it sits at the base of your neck and regulates the speed at which your whole body operates and manages its alkaline design and acidic functions. While hypothyroidism affects both men and women, by age sixty, 17 percent of all women will have a thyroid disorder and not know it, according to the American Thyroid Foundation. A live and dried blood test can show it, and an alkaline lifestyle and diet can chase fatigue and an under-active acidic thyroid away.

Fatigue Factor #3: Caffeine Acid Overload or I Drink Too Much Acid Dis-Ease.

The hard core acid caffeine is everywhere these days, from fancy coffee drinks to so-called “energy” drinks. Too much of a acid thing, though, can drag you down instead of giving you a boost. “In some patients, continued abuse results in fatigue,” says W. Stephen Pray, PhD, RPh. Cut out all acidic caffeine that is causing your fatigue, and keep in mind that caffeine is found in other highly acidic foods such as chocolate, black tea, green tea, energy drinks, and also in many medications.

Fatigue Factor #4: Food Allergies or I Eat and Drink Acid Dis-Ease,

Acidic food allergies or intolerances can cause acidic symptoms from headaches to hives, but the first symptom is often drowsiness or fatigue within ten to thirty minutes of digesting the acidic food or drink. Common offenders are milk, yogurt, ice cream, cheese, high fructose corn syrup, MSG, shellfish, and all forms of sugar. If you suspect an acidic food or drink intolerance, try an “acid elimination diet” that cuts out all acidic foods and drinks for a week or so. You will find that you will no longer have food allergies. Continued digesting of an acidic food or drink your body can’t tolerate can lead not only to chronic fatigue but other health problems as well.

Fatigue Factor #5: Sleep Apnea or I Am Full of Acid Dis-Ease.

You may only think you’re getting six to eight hours of sleep. You may actually stop breathing many times during the night, which awakens you just long enough to disturb your sleep, usually without your being aware of it. If you sleep alone, your only clue that you may have sleep apnea is chronic acid fatigue. If you share a bed with someone, snoring is also an acidic symptom. (They’ll let you know!) A sleep clinic can diagnose sleep apnea, and an alkaline lifestyle and diet can often get you back on the road to restful nights. If you don't stop the acid lifestyle and diet, an increased risk of stroke or heart attack is down the road instead of an alkaline peaceful sleep.

All five factors are symptoms of the first stage of latent tissue acidosis – enervation – and can easily be resolved with an alkaline lifestyle and diet.

The Truth About Cholesterol

What causes an increase in serum cholesterol? The answer is easy. It is a four letter word ACID. The body creates and releases cholesterol in the blood stream to buffer and protect against dietary and metabolic acidity. Cholesterol is our friend. It is dietary and metabolic acid that makes us sick, tired and fat.

I am telling you this because there are millions of Americans trying to lower their cholesterol with statin drugs putting them at risk for the very thing they are trying to prevent a stroke or heart attack.

It is acid that causes heart attacks and strokes not cholesterol. The truth about cholesterol is that cholesterol is released into the blood stream to buffer or chelate dietary and/or metabolic acids and protect the heart and blood vessels from acid breakdown.

 According to recent research, the benefits of statin drugs are highly overrated, and the 13 million Americans using them may get little, if any, benefit.

In fact, according to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center states, "statin drugs reduce cholesterol but do not reduce the dietary or metabolic acids that cause strokes and heart attacks. To reduce cholesterol without reducing the acid is setting the stage for a potential stroke or heart attack."

Recent studies on statin drugs show no reduction in deaths for people over the age of 65 — regardless of how much the drug lowered their cholesterol — and no benefit at all for women of any age!

Even though Americans are bombarded with ads touting the benefits of statins, close study of drug company ads tell a different tale. In small print, an ad for Lipitor stated that ‘in a large clinical study, 3% of patients taking a sugar pill or placebo had a heart attack compared to 2% of patients taking Lipitor.”

The trial lasted over three years, meaning that for every one hundred people taking Lipitor for at least three years, only one person avoided having a heart attack. The other 99 got no benefit. Other studies have indicated that as many as 250 patients would need to be treated in order to benefit one person.

 Statins cause side effects in 10% to 15% of users that include diarrhea, muscle pain, cognitive impairment and sexual dysfunction, and they cost about $1,000 a year.

 “Most people are taking something with no change of benefit and a risk of harm,” says Dr. James M. Wright, a professor at the University of British Columbia and director of Canada’s Therapeutics Initiative, an organization which examines the data on drugs and decides how well they work.

 Dr. Young states, "if you want to protect the heart and blood vessels from die-ease you need to maintain the alkaline design of your body."

 To do this Dr. Young suggests an alkalizing seven step program that includes the following:

 1) 2 to 3 ounces of liquid chlorophyll 3 times a day. Dr. Young recommends 100% pure chlorophyll from Da Souza's.

 2) Eating 10 to 12 servings of fruits and vegetables everyday.

 3) 1 to 2 ounces of poly-unsaturated fats from flax, hemp, avocado and/or fish.

 4) Drinking 3 to 4 liters of  alkaline pH water everyday.

 5) Eating at least 7 to 8 grams of mineral salts everyday.

 6) Whole body exercising everyday with a rebounder or a VibrapHirm.

 7) Testing your urine pH every morning and night to make sure it is in the healthy range of 7.2 or better.

Botox, a highly toxic bacterial acid and similar injections should come with stronger warnings following reports of 16 deaths after the acidic botulinum toxin spread inside the body, a U.S. consumer group said on Thursday.

Public Citizen asked U.S. authorities to require the strongest possible warning, highlighted in a "black box," on Allergan Inc's Botox and Solstice Neurosciences Inc's Myobloc.

Botox is famous for smoothing facial wrinkles but also has approved medical causes such as treating cervical dystonia, or rigid neck muscles. Botox  does this by causing latent tissue acidosis leading to tissue breakdown and inflammation. Botox, which may cause tissue inflammation gives the illusion of smoothing facial wrinkles while behind the scenes is causing tissue acidosis and potential tissue breakdown or degeneration.

Both injections are made with forms of a poisonous bacterial acid called botulinum toxin, which blocks nerve impulses to muscles and makes them relax.
Why? The nerves relax because they are being poisoned!

Public Citizen said it reviewed 180 reports submitted to the Food and Drug Administration by manufacturers involving patients injected with Botox or Myobloc. The  reports detailed cases of muscle weakness due to acidity, difficulty swallowing or aspiration pneumonia due to acidity, a serious condition caused by breathing a foreign material into the lungs, also due to acidity.

Reports to the FDA do not prove a product caused a particular problem, but the agency uses them to look for patterns of potential complications. Experts believe most problems are under-reported to the agency.

"There are no safety issues raised in the petition that are not already addressed in the labeling for Botox," Allergan said in a statement. The company said it is in frequent dialogue with the FDA to ensure proper labeling and also submits all information it receives on adverse events whether or not they are related to the drug.

Sixteen cases reported to the FDA were fatal, including four involving children under 18, Public Citizen said. Eighty-seven patients were hospitalized.

Dr. Sidney Wolfe, director of Public Citizen's Health Research Group, said such problems can occur if the acidic botulinum toxin spreads from the injection site to places such as the esophagus, causing partial paralysis. Instructions for Botox and Myobloc mention the issue but it is easy to miss, he said.

Public Citizen asked the FDA to order a black-box warning to highlight the concern, plus a letter to doctors. The agency also should require a consumer-friendly guide explaining the risks that would be handed out by doctors when the drug is injected,
the group said.

"These significantly improved warnings to doctors and patients would increase the likelihood of earlier medical intervention when symptoms of adverse reactions to botulinum toxin first appear, and could prevent more serious complications, including death," Public Citizen said in a petition to the FDA.

Early symptoms include dry mouth, difficulty breathing or swallowing, slurred speech, drooping eyelids and muscle weakness.

The group said European regulators have warned physicians to watch for signs of the acid botulinum toxin complications.

According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research scientist at the pH Miracle Living Center, states, "the symptoms of dry mouth, difficulty breathing or swallowing, slurred speech, drooping eyelids, muscle weakness are all the result of increased fluid and tissue acidity whether from diet, metabolism or drugs. The injection of the acid botox is not worth the health risks. Wrinkles are the expression of over-acidic skin from the body eliminating dietary acids, metabolic acids and drug acids through the pores of the skin."

"Healthy skin that is wrinkle and blemish free is the expression of an alkaline fluid pH and healthy blood. An alkaline fluid pH and healthy blood is the expression of someone who is living an alkaline lifestyle and eating and alkaline diet," states Dr. Young.

To start alkalizing the skin and reducing the acids that cause skin blemishes and wrinkles may I suggest the following:

1) Hyper-alkalinize with high pH water and  mineral salts to buffer dietary, metabolic and drug acids.

2) Hyper-chlorophyllnize with liquid chlorophyll and mineral salts for building healthy blood and then skin.

3) Build healthy and strong blood and skin cellular membranes with mono-unsaturated and poly-unsaturated fats.

4) Alkalinize the skin with a smectite montmorillonite clay called Terra pHirma, an alkalizing moisturizer called SopH Skin and an alkalizing facial toner called repHresh.

How Do You Know If You're Overly Acidic?

The New Biology

By Dr. Robert O. Young

New Biology, most simply stated, is the fact that the over-acidification of the body is the single underlying cause of all disease. In contrast, the old biology, based on the work of Louis Pasteur in the late 1800s, stems from the idea that disease comes from germs which invade the body from the outside. Dr. Young has found that when the body is in healthy alkaline balance, germs are unable to get a foothold.

Think of your body as a fish tank. Think of the importance of maintaining the integrity of the internal fluids of the body that we swim in daily. Imagine the fish in this tank are your cells and organ systems bathed in fluids, which transport food and remove wastes.

Now imagine we back up a car and put the tailpipe up against the air intake filter that supplies the oxygen for the water in the tank. The water becomes filled with carbon monoxide, lowering the alkaline pH, creating and acidic pH environment, and threatening the health of the fish, your cells and organs.

What if we throw in too much food or the wrong kind of food (acid-producing food like dairy, sugar, and animal protein) and the fish are unable to consume or digest it all, and it starts to decompose and putrefy? Toxic acid waste and chemicals build up as the food breaks down, creating more acidic byproducts, altering the optimum alkaline pH.

Basically, this is a small example of what we may be doing to our internal fluids every day. We are fouling them with pollution (smoking), drugs, excessive intake of food, over-consumption of acid-forming foods (dairy food, sugar, animal protein), and any number of transgressions which compromise the delicate balance of our internal alkaline fluids.

Some of us have fish tanks (bodies) that are barely able to support life, yet we somehow manage to struggle from day to day, building more severe imbalances until there is the inevitable crash and debilitating chronic, disturbing and disorganizing symptoms to deal with.

The pH level (the acid-alkaline measurement) of our internal fluids affects every cell in our bodies. Extended acid imbalances of any kind are not well tolerated by the body. Indeed, the entire metabolic process depends on a balanced internal alkaline environment. A chronically over-acidic pH corrodes body tissue, slowly eating into the 60,000 miles of veins and arteries like acid eating into marble. If left unchecked, it will interrupt all cellular activities and functions, from the beating of your heart to the neural firing of your brain. In summary, over-acidification interferes with life itself leading to all sickness and disease!
