MS and acid have recently been linked together by Doctor Robert O Young, a leading microbiologist and nutritional scientist, in his studies on the benefits of an alkalarian lifestyle. His findings contain a whole new way of looking at diet and nutrition which allow you to experience a new level of wellness, energy and mental clarity.
His findings state that it is the over-acidification of the body which is the single underlying cause of all disease. This is in direct contrast to the works of Louis Pasteur in the late 1800s which said that disease comes from germs which invade the body from the outside.
A diet high in acid foods such as meat, grains, dairy, high sugar fruits and bread causes acid waste to build up in the body. When acid waste enters our bloodstream the blood system will attempt to dispose of these wastes in liquid form through your lungs of the kidneys, and if there are two many wastes to handle they are deposited in various organs like the heart, pancreas, colon, and other locations. The main cause of this problem is the radical change in diet and lifestyle over the last 100 years which has actually transformed our bodies into toxic waste lands.
To slow down and reverse this process one must begin by removing this over-acidification of the blood and tissues by including the liberal amounts of alkaline water in the diet. Alkaline water has a pH between 9 and 11 and will neutralize harmful stored acid wastes and gently remove them from the tissues.
His theory is that the root cause of multiple sclerosis is the modern diet which is causing your body to become diseased by acids, sugars, carbohydrates, excess fats and uric acids which are flowing through our bloodstream. Therefore, any condition is merely a warning sign of a breakdown in your body, due to your lifestyle that takes you out of balance, and in this condition it is easy for multiple sclerosis to develop. You need to stop the attacks on your body from within before you develop even more serious conditions and eventually truly life threatening health problems.
Here is a quote from Doctor Young in relation to the over acidification of the body. “There is only one sickness and one disease, and this one ‘sickness’ is the over acidification of the body due primarily to an inverted way of living, thinking, and eating… and there can be only one remedy and treatment and that is to alkalize the body and break the cycle of imbalance, thus allowing us to experience the energy, vitality and true health we are all meant to have”
