Many folks may have tried using Baking Soda to raise their pH, thinking that
then "ALL" their Problems would go away ?
Because now their pH is up after taking Baking Soda, but then they later find
out that continued use of Baking Soda is not Solving their problem, in Fact it
may Cause some problems?
"WHY" may this come about ?
Could it be that Baking Soda may "ONLY" provide a Release of Electro-magnetic
Energy from the Baking Soda and any Acids reacting against this Baking Soda ?
Now, what if the body is needing Calcium or Magnesium or Iron or Potassium or
any other of the needed Alkaline Minerals and the person is just using Baking
Soda, which does not contain any of these ?
Could it be easy enough to see that the Baking Soda is not going to supply these
other needed Alkaline Minerals, thus may not Solve the problem, when there is a
Lack of these other needed Alkaline Minerals, which may be Causing the Low pH in
our bodys ?
Surely it could not be this Simple ?
Could it be ?
As usual not everything may be as it may first seem to be !

Hi Lilly1,
Your question: I found this recipe for alkalinizing: 1/4 t. baking soda, 2 T.
apple cider vinegar and warm water. It has helped a lot of people with acid
reflux and similar problems.
What is your take?
Lilly
Answer: It has been known for many years that ACV and Honey may help Solve Acid
Reflux problems !
As to the addition of Baking Soda, this may help Neutralize many Acids, because
Baking Soda is very Alkaline, but just because Baking Soda may raise the pH of
the media does not mean that it is supplying the needed Alkaline Minerals, which
the body may need to Repair and rebuild it's self !
All it means is that the Baking Soda is able to neutralize more Acids than some
other of the Alkaline Minerals, but this is not supplying the needed Release of
other needed Electro-magnetic Energy from the other Alkaline Minerals !
This may help as a temporary measure, til one is able to supply the other needed
Alkaline Minerals, which the body "Must" have in order to be able to Heal !
Smile Tis your choice.
Hi lilly1,
I do "NOT" suggest using Baking Soda , except in an Emergency to raise the pH,
because it does "NOT" supply the needed Electro-magnetic Energy from "ALL" of
the other needed Alkaline Minerals, which the Different Organs of the body
"MUST" have in order to keep them Healthy !
Yes, Baking Soda will cut the Acids and raise the pH, but it does "NOT" supply
the other needed Electro-magnetic Energy !
And this Temporary raising of the pH may give a Temporary Relief ?
It is much Better to use more Good Quality Kelp to raise the pH and thus supply
these other needed Alkaline Minerals and their Electro-magnetic Energy, which
these Different Organs of the body must have this Electro-magnetic Energy to
stay or become Healthy !
Baking Soda is "ONLY" a Temporary crutch to help cut the excess Acids !!!!!!!
Baking Soda will not Solve the problem of a Lack of the needed Alkaline
Minerals, which are needed to keep the body Healthy !
As usual not everything may be as it may first seem to be !
There may be a list of all the different minerals the drink supplies but I'm not sure. ML has said that the kelp and the other ingredients supply everything we need. Just by my results, I tend to agree. If I run into a list in my daily searches I will post them for you.
I think WEIL answered your question about ingesting baking soda.
“The more water retention a person may have, may mean the more Fatty Acids they may retain, which may mean the More Fat they may carry!
Which may mean the more Toxins and Acids their body may retain!
The body needs a certain ratio of Sodium to Potassium in relationship to the amount of Calcium to Magnesium ratio in order to stay Healthy!
In Cold weather, a person may need a greater amount of Sodium to Potassium , so that they may keep warm!
In Hot weather, a person may need a greater amount of Potassium to Sodium, so that they may stay Cool!
"IF" you eat foods in season, they may provide you with this correct ratios, which the body needs!
But, "IF" you take Baking soda to neutralize the Excess Acids all the time, then you may have too much Sodium to the Potassium Ratios needed in the Hot weather and you may have trouble staying Cool, for one problem!
Also "IF" you have a problem of too much Fat on your body, then taking this Baking Soda to neutralize your Excess Acids, may just allow you to stay "FAT" !
So, "IF" you are too "FAT" is this how you want to be?
Baking Soda is only a temporary fix for over-Acidity, and it may help in the short run, but it is not a long term solution!
It does not provide your body with the needed Alkaline Mineral Electro-magnetic Energy required by the body to operate effectively and to rebuild the different organs in your body!

And from JonnySmith in the same thread
“Plus if I am not mistaken, if you end up with a buildup of too much sodium(even from baking soda), it can make blood pressure problems worse or even greatly increase your risk of developing high blood pressure, especially if you have a salt sensitivity and don't even know it. Many sites that promote the use of baking soda to neutralize excess acidity even go as far as to state that potassium bicarbonate rather than sodium bicarbonate(baking soda) may be a better option for neutralizing excess acidity.”
END of QUOTES
And now from my personal experimentation with various solutions. When I was first introduced to the pH concepts many months ago (not through this forum) I was using just baking soda. Later, with further searches, I found the ACV Baking Soda solution and later added Potassium bicarbonate. I had some success from it but also some water retention when not using the potassium bicarbonate. But I can tell you that these are nothing when compared to the Moreless alkalizing drink. Here's a link to the drink with more instructions http://www.curezone.com/forums/am.asp?i=1009886#i1
Not only the drink will increase one's pH, but over time, will replenish many minerals that were lost because of many years of acidosis. No doubt that after many years with acidosis, internal organs, tissues and bones have been deteriorated. The ML drink provides various minerals via the blackstrap molasses, kelp, ACV/lemon, Epson salt (magnesium) and calcium from pickling lime water.
Thanks and it's quite a compliment coming from you.
Now and then I am trying to build a kind of database of info. Sometimes I look at them and go to the web pages and do copy and paste on word documents to be later printed. I did that a few times to introduce ph balance and other stuff I encountered over the year. I must say that, so far, I haven't been very successful in convincing people about the ph balance principles. But at least they have the documentation, and it may be helpful in the future.
WEIL, you are a quick study and have really been a great champion for this forum. Your skills are greatly appreciated here.
I had a person who knew I had MS come to me the other day and ask for whatever information I would give them on how to naturally heal because they knew someone else that was diagnosed with MS. That same day another person whom I had not seen in a while also told me they were diagnosed with MS.
Of course the first thing I did was pray and ask God if this was His way of telling me I needed to start getting prepared to help others in a different way than just here on Curezone.
I am of course tickled to help anyone who asks but found this particular arrangement of a friend of a friend to not be the best way of helping. The second person has not asked for help yet but I kept wondering if I needed to be more ready, just in case.
As you notice here on the forum, people have alot of questions before, during and after they start the protocols. Even though the protocols are not that complicated to do, they are however, more of a challenge to explain the in's and out's of why they work or how to do them to meet certain needs a person may have.
Even if you had it all written out, there would still be more questions to answer.
