Re: taking the plunge

Hi

I have two recommendations:
1)Start slowly with the drink.
2)Buy yourself some pH papers for monitoring your results.

You will find at the end of my post an extract from an older thread that has more instructions about the Moreless alkalizing drink, and you will find in it answer to most of your questions.

Distilled water is better for making the pickling lime as it will allow more of the lime powder to dissolve. I am sure other water may do. I think moreless always said to use clean water.

Lime water is alkaline. I don't think it will spoil for quite sometime.

For distilled water did you try a pharmacy?

The BSM has to be unsulfured.

Recommended kelp from Norway.

I am sure that some people use sea salt for trace minerals. I think moreless would warn about it because of too much sodium.

May be it would be wise to start with one teaspoon of kelp instead of 1 TBS. Increase amount if you react well.

Look at the following posts for the Moreless alkalizing protocols:

Hi Ya'll,

Enclosed is the recipe for the drink from the website which is now closed til a new site is up.
The Moreless Alkalizing Drink


Here's a great alkalizing drink that can help remineralise you quickly and cheaply! This is an amazing power packed, mineral and nutrient dense drink that will not only help to alkalize you, but will give you loads of electrically charged energy! I've been drinking this 2-3 times a day and I am a firm believer!

Ingredients:

1. 1 tablespoon of blackstrap molasses (it must be Unsulphured and ideally organic)
2. Juice of half a lemon (OR 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar if you can't take citrus or get hold of lemons)
3. 1 + tablespoon pickling lime water (= 1 tablespoon of pickling lime powder, aka calcium hydroxide, diluted in 1 gallon of distilled water) *see safety notes below*
4. Small pinch of Epsom salts
5. Norwegian kelp powder 1 + teaspoons
6. 1 glass of distilled, ionized or alkaline mineral water (like Evian)
*** you can take a lot MORE pickling lime water and Kelp than is suggested above. Start slow and if things don't improve, slowly build up. Some of us use up to 20 tablespoons of pickling lime water and up to 2 tablespoons of kelp powder each time ***
(Check the Resources page for suppliers)

The chemical reaction between the acid in the lemon juice and the alkaline minerals in the mollases releases energy into the body and makes the minerals more bioavailable.

Method:
*Dissolve the blackstrap molasses and epsom salts in warm water (leave to cool if desired)
*Add 1 (or more) tablespoons of pickling lime water
*Add the lemon or ACV (I sometimes add both) Add these only when the drink has cooled down, you don't want to destroy the enzymes or minerals
*Some people like to mix their kelp in with their drink, some just put the kelp straight into their mouths
Special note on the kelp!: Most people find the taste absolutely vile because, in my opinion .... it is!!! -
it may help to moisten it and your mouth first so you don't gag! Some people use a straw to bypass the taste.

But this really is an essential part of the drink and is packed with loads of minerals and complex carbohydrates, so do what you need to do to get it down! And yes, kelp is available in capules, but the powder is much cheaper.

(This is an edit .. after several months of taking the kelp powder, it no longer tastes so vile! I am becoming immune to the taste - hooray!)
... And drink!

If you are chronically ill: I suggest you start with with just a teaspoon of kelp and a tablespoon of the pickling lime water along with all the other ingredients. Over time, start building up on both those ingredients until you can manage 2-3 teaspoons of kelp and 2-4 tablespoons of the picking lime water in each drink. You don't have to drink it all at once, you can also sip it over a few hours.

When someone has been chronically ill for a while, a drink like this might create a powerful reaction and start to release acids from organs and tissues too quickly, that is why I am suggesting you start slow.

(Better to aim for minimal discomfort while you begin to rebuild your health)

Can you make a batch in advance?

You can mix the Blackstrap Molasses, pickling Lime water and kelp together without the Lemon juice or the ACV and keep this cool - then add the ACV or Lemon juice just before drinking. The batch should be ok for a day, but not longer than two days. Fresh is best!
Heath Notes:
*Please use organic where you can!
*Blackstrap molasses must be unsulphured. Sulphur is acid forming.
*If using apple cider vinegar, buy organic and unpasteurised (*with mother*) so full of active enzymes.
Otherwise, just find a good source of unpasteurised ACV.
*Pickling lime is normally found in the pickling/canning section of shops. Your alternative is to buy calcium hydroxide powder and put 1 tablespoon of the powder in 1 gallon of distilled water and use that as your pickling lime solution.
*Buy food grade epsom salts.
*Kelp is apparently purest from Norway, and it is better if it is finely powdered.
*If you are very acidic, you can also add a pinch of epsom salts or a tablespoon of ACV with a tablespoon of pickling lime water to your normal glasses of water (the pickling lime provides calcium by the way).

I've been happily drinking the above 2-3 times a day. And it has a buzz to it! To keep your mineral reserves up, to every glass of water throughout the day, you may also add a tablespoon of pickling lime water (plus a dash of lemon or ACV)

The Moreless alkalizing drink is basically a very cheap and effective method of creating alkalinity and is NOT meant as a substitue for a wholesome diet with complex carbs as is found in foods like green veges. The drink is basically a method to get us more alkaline quicker, but it is NOT the way to become alkaline totally, that takes some effort!

What Moreless is presenting people here are various options. Not everyone is prepared or able to go all the way with eating right. So he is giving people easy and cheap ways to kick start their healing whilst finding their way at improving their diet, which will in turn be the most important part of their healing. The kelp and molasses are packed full of minerals that may be difficult for people to find in the foods that are available to them right now.

Moreless on the alkalizing drink: HERE The Epsom salts, pickling lime water, lemon juice or ACV create the electrical energy so that our bodies can make the best use of the minerals.


** SAFETY NOTES ON CALCIUM HYDROXIDE **
(For those who can't get hold of the pickling lime water.)
CALCIUM HYDROXIDE (also known as - pickling lime water/Ca(OH)2/slaked lime/biocalc/lime water etc.)

In concentrated powdered form, this stuff is a skin, eye and respiratory irritant. It is CORROSIVE and causes burns. Should you be using this concentrated form to dilute with water before use, please protect yourself by wearing safety glasses, gloves and minimize your exposure to the dust itself.

There are no safety issues if you buy the pre made pickling lime water.

Remember, the drink asks for 1 (to 4) tablespoon of the diluted lime water - you take 1 tablespoon of the powder and add it to a gallon of water. You do NOT add the powder directly to your drink!

This powder is also incompatible with strong acids! So, the more acidic you are the smaller your dose should be! Start small and slow, and add more after checking your response. We are all unique, so someone else's ideal dosage may not be the same as yours.
