Re: The myth of chronic acidosis
lol, I only need to look in the mirror to see that age effects other parts of the body, I don't think that was ever in dispute.
You only need to read a couple of forums on CZ, and elsewhere on the www, to see that the alkalising proponents do suggest the ingestion of calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide etc, to alkalise the body. As well as
Epsom Salts , both ingestion and soaking in them. All these chemicals have the effect of neutralising the stomach acid, and in the case of
Epsom Salt baths, alkalising the skin surface.
If people want to preach good diet and lifestyle, I have absolutly no problem with that, in fact I agree wholeheartedly. I wish though, that they would get the facts straight about how the body works, before they start on about ph balance etc. The psuedo
Science that is spouted to try and prove their theories of ph manipulation, and acids being the cause of all disease, are just plain, flat out, wrong.
