basics: when the body gets out of balance there is an acid alkaline problem. all disease and all conditions can be traced to these three problems and they are all related. toxicity,acidosis and a lack of minerals created by the acidosis.a lack of minerals can cause a stomach acid problem, usually not enough of it allows pathogens to enter the body and start pumping out toxic waste.lack of stomach acids is caused by a lack of minerals. a lack of minerals and pathognens creates a drain on the body's mineral supply to keep the body at a ph of 7.365. sounds complicated but in an orchestra all instruments must be in harmony and the body is no different. just remember alkalze,alkalize,alkalize. mineralize,and detox.no quick fix but a place to start.
