--Lack of seeing what you are saying yourself??????--

Hi Hveragerthi,

Your post: Actually I already addressed this with the other poster. You may want to read what I wrote before attacking me because your statement is still incorrect.

Let's go back to your original post as an example. You were talking about varicose veins, which are stretched out veins due to loss of elasticity. Yet you state later in your post "The Veins "Only" Bust because they are not able to stretch and Flex, because they are too Ridged, because of a lack of needed Alkaline Minerals !" So how does a blood vessel varicose (stretch) if it rigid? The answer is that it does not.

Answer by Moreless: Please take time to review what you just stated?

My Orginal Quote: The Veins "Only" Bust because they are not able to stretch and Flex, because they are too Ridged, because of a lack of needed Alkaline Minerals !

If you will notice I was talking about veins that had Busted, not about those that had not yet busted? I was addressing both varicose veins and veins that Bust ! This was the title: Varicose Veins & Busted Blood vessels-- End.

Elastin declines with age, primarily due to the loss of silica. This is why we tend to see things like emphysema, wrinkles, diverticulitis, aneurysms, and varicose veins as we age. These all result from the loss of elastin, not acidity. And the reason that silica levels decline with age is because of a decline in stomach acid, which is required to convert silica in to its usable form orthosilicic acid. Do you even have a clue how many acids are necessary for our health? For instance ascorbic acid, which is also ESSENTIAL for elastin formation. Or all the amino ACIDS, also needed for elastin formation. And what about acidic minerals like sulfur, which is also required for the formation of elastin. For someone that is claiming to know so much about the human body I am surprised that you don't know these BASIC facts!!!

Answer by Moreless: Please do yourself a Great favor and review the Many past posts talking about the Acid/Alkaline pH Balancing Principles shared on this forum before you stick your Foot into your mouth any more ! End.

Your other statement is totally ridiculous:

"As to the Beer, it may be too Acidic forming to the body, which may Cause a Lack of the needed Copper, thus the Gut is not able to Flex, it just pulls out like a Rubber band that has lost it's elasticity and cannot go back into it's orginal shape !"

Again, if there is no flexibility then how does it pull out like a rubber band, which by the way is elastic? See how your statement clearly contradicts no only itself, but also logic and facts? Again, beer bellies have NOTHING to do with acidity, or loss of elastin or elasticity. This is a ludicrous statement. Your claims are like saying that a piece of thick steel is stiff so it is therefore elastic enough to bulge out. What causes beer bellies AGAIN is the estrogenic effect of the hops used in making the beer. Estrogens are well known in medicine to cause fat cell enlargement and water retention, which is what it is doing in the belly. Men in particular tend to put more fat around the belly. So this fat enlarges due to the estrogenic effect of the beer. Not everyone drinking beer develops a beer belly though because of several reasons, such as higher testosterone, which counters estrogen, lack of the enzyme aromatase, and lack of belly fat to begin with. This is proven science and medicine unlike the acid causes all diseases propaganda pushed so widely.

Answer by Moreless: Again it may be Better for you to Stop posting to avoid sticking your Foot any more into your mouth?

There happens to be a Great Difference between Flexibility and Elasticity !

Consider Mild steel that is Flexible and will bend easily, but it Lacks the Elasticity to Return to it's orginal Shape like an alloy of Spring Steel will return to it's Orginal shape !

When a person lacks the needed Alkaline Minerals that provide for Elasticity, they may indeed Flex out like in Beer bellies, but then they are unable to return back into the Orginal shape !

As usual not everything may be as it may 1st seem to be !

Maybe it would be good for you to get some fresh Air so that you may Clear your head?

Cause and Effect !

Smile Tis your choice.
