This book is mainly for the self-responsible person who would like to live long and healthfully. Determining the pH of the body by measuring certain body fluids gives a person a miraculous tool for controlling and improving health. Acid-base balancing and control, when understood and applied, is more powerful to health maintenance and improvement than any of the widely advertised antioxidants, super antioxidants or other wonder supplements. Acids corrode cells and tissues much faster than any super nutrient could possibly restore them. Many natural health remedies are healing simply because they alkalize, remove acids or assist organs to balance acids within the body. The environment in which the cell lives is known as the biological terrain. PH is a major part of that internal terrain. By altering your internal terrain to an environment which is supportive of human cells, you can extend the life of your cells to the maximum.
