Eating a diet that is rich in raw veggies will raise your body pH from a sickly 4 to 5 area into a healthier area 6 to 7.
This is promoted by the Dr. Brownstein Iodine protocol because a person with a sickly pH cannot properly absorb needed vitamins & minerals (including IODINE). See the CUREZONE pH Forum for more on this subject. //www.curezone.org/forums/f.asp?f=739
