Re: Alkaline/Acid pH Balancing and establishment trolls!

If you had read my post... you would have read that "I agree with you to a point".

Which in essence, meant, at least from my perspective when I wrote it, that I agreed with you... and then went on to illustrate why what you wrote is true... to that point, and then illustrated the possible exceptions to that "truth" for a few, various reasons.

Which I am certain that you understood and agreed with in spite of your response.

Though many things in this world are, according to our understandings, thought to be absolutes (some of those are not, however, I will not get into them... you are mired in scientific dogma and seem to see it as a religion), not everything is right or wrong, this or that, most especially in the natural world... variability is a constant in all things in the natural world, including soil, water and air, which profoundly affect the health of living organisms.

If I worked with and was exposed to chemicals day in and day out, while an identical twin was not, we would express our health and well being differently over our lives.

Subtle things like if I ate my vegetables, especially leafy greens, and he did not, we would express our health and well bing differently over our lives.

"Habits" such as his cigarette and coffee habits would have effects as well.

It is why we find "cancer islands" among people and animals in highly polluted cities, etc... with those having weaker constitutions for any number of reasons, expressing those cancers.

it is why we are finding cancers in wild birds, animals, and fish, along with struggling vegetation, in various geographical regions...

it is why we are seeing drastic die offs in pollinating species, including bees, bats and song birds in various regions...

It is why we have ocean dead zones where rivers enter into the seas...

etc. etc.

Would you give a 250 pound man the same dose of an "herb" as a 110 pound woman for the same condition? Of course not. Would one herb be more beneficial to a man and less so to a woman... yes, that is so as well... variability my friend.

Many tribal cultures knew of these things...

I am not trying to prove you wrong... and really do not think that I did, as much as I illustrated the natural variations we encounter... Which need to be illustrated for growth... Never have I had the intent of proving you wrong as much as I am engaging you in discussion for benefit of greater understanding, not only for myself, but also for any readers that might happen by.

You can take it or leave it as you wish.

BTW - I thought that forum owners could not post in Debate Forums ... that does not seem to be true across the board.
