Re: International Acid-Base Symposiums
Thanks WIEL...
The reading lists and works cited are must reads...
I particularly like this paper...
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18203913
As it illustrates how "extracellular" pH regulates bone cell function.
Other papers that show the regulatory effects of extracellular fluids are IMO, direct validation and proof of Bechamps "it is all about the terrain". and ML's it is all about acid/base balancing principles.
In addition and what I also find particularly interesting are the papers illustrating the effects of hydrogen carbonate... fascinating.
Not much of a help for those of use who use R/O and distilled water exclusively... aparently hydrogen carbonate was a major part of natural water sources.
I have been seriously thinking of getting a good home filter and perhaps using a very minute amount of CH (lime water - not enough to taste), enough to bind any possible fluoride and such that may still linger through the filtering process.
Any comments or thoughts on that approach to water WIEL, others?
Europe and Japan are far ahead of U.S. medicine in recognizing these things... in fact, their acid/alkaline "supplement" products are rather progressive - and interesting... some contain things like potassium phosphate primarily as a lactic acid buffer... which illustrates, in part, how different alkaline mineral based compounds are needed to act as buffers for specific acids... as we have been stating all along... and others seem to have a VERY hard time grasping.
