FW: Baking Soda & Cancer (The Last Laugh)

Hi Folks,
I have often mentioned the value of using Baking Soda.
Here is an excellent article of how Baking Soda helps
the body. It is by far the most in expensive way I have found
to help restore the body's PH. Baking Soda (either Bob's Redmill
brand or Arm & hammer) is easily available to all.

  Baking  Soda & Cancer (The Last Laugh)
   
    University of Arizona Cancer  Center member Dr. Mark Pagel will receive a $2 million grant from the National  Institutes of Health to study the effectiveness of personalized baking soda therapy to treat breast cancer. In other words,  clinical trials on the use of oral sodium bicarbonate for breast cancer  treatments are about to start![1] Obviously there are people  in the know who have understood that sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), that  same stuff that can save a person’s life in the emergency room in a heartbeat,  is a primary cancer treatment option of the safest and most effective kind.
    Of course I feel vindicated for  everything I wrote in Sodium Bicarbonate – Rich Man’s Poor Man’s Cancer Treatment, which still stands  as the only full medical review on the subject of using simple baking soda in  the practice of medicine. When taken orally with water, especially water with  high magnesium content, and when used transdermally in medicinal baths, sodium  bicarbonate becomes a first-line medicinal for the treatment of cancer, kidney  disease, diabetes, influenza and even the common cold. And importantly, it is  also a powerful buffer against radiation exposure, so everyone should be up to  speed on its use. Everybody’s physiology is under heavy nuclear attack from  strong radioactive winds that are circling the northern hemisphere.
    Actually  it is no surprise that a University of Arizona researcher received this grant  because there has been cancer research going on for years there. Dr. Robert J.  Gillies and his colleagues have already demonstrated that pre-treatment of mice  with sodium bicarbonate results in the  alkalinization of the area around tumors. The same researchers reported that bicarbonate increases tumor pH and also inhibits spontaneous metastases  in mice with breast cancer.[2] It also reduces the rate of lymph node  involvement.
    I  recently published about fungal infections, and breast cancer has been found to  be associated with increased frequency of mold-fermented cheese consumption.[3] Fungi produce toxic metabolites  called mycotoxins[4] that can cause cancer. Aflatoxin is a mycotoxin with carcinogenic potency that is found in inferior  peanut butter and other nut and dairy products. Researchers in 1993 examined  human breast cancer tissue and found significant carcinogenic aflatoxin within  the cancer tissue implicating  aflatoxin and thus fungus as a cause of breast cancer.[5]
    The pH level of our internal fluids affects every cell in our body.

        Chronic over-acidity corrodes body tissue, and if left unchecked

        will interrupt all cellular activities and functions. In other words,

      over-acidity interferes with life itself. It is at the root of cancer.
    Sodium  bicarbonate medical treatments are the time honored method to “speed up” the  return of the body’s bicarbonate levels to normal. Sodium bicarbonate happens  to be one of our most useful medicines as it treats the basic acid-alkaline  axis of human physiology.
    The pH of our tissues and body  fluids is crucial and central because it affects and mirrors the state of our  health or our inner cleanliness. The  closer the pH is to 7.35-7.45, the higher our level of health and wellbeing.  Staying within this range dramatically increases our ability to resist acute  illnesses like colds and flues as well as the onset of cancer and other  diseases. Keeping our pH within a healthy range also involves necessary  lifestyle and dietary changes that will protect us over the long term while the  use of sodium bicarbonate gives us a jump-start toward increased alkalinity.
    The  pH scale is like a thermometer showing increases and decreases in the acid and  alkaline content of fluids. Deviations above or below a 7.35-7.45 pH range in the tightly  controlled blood can signal potentially serious and dangerous symptoms or  states of disease. When the body can no longer effectively neutralize and  eliminate the acids, it relocates them within the body’s extra-cellular fluids  and connective tissue cells directly compromising cellular integrity.  Conversely when the body becomes too alkaline from too much bicarbonate in the  blood, metabolic alkalosis occurs, which can lead to severe consequences if not  corrected quickly.[6]
    Jon Barron presents a way of looking at pH that opens  up one of the major benefits of alkaline water:
    Hydrogen ions tie up oxygen. That means  that the more acid a liquid is, the less available the oxygen in it. Every cell  in our body requires oxygen for life and to maintain optimum health. Combine  that with what we know about hydrogen ions and we see that the more acid the  blood (the lower its pH), the less oxygen is available for use by the cells.  Without going into a discussion of the chemistry involved, just understand that  it’s the same mechanism involved when acid rain “kills” a lake. The fish  literally suffocate to death because the acid in the lake “binds up” all of the  available oxygen. It’s not that the oxygen has gone anywhere; it’s just no  longer available. Conversely, if you raise the pH of the lake (make it more  alkaline), oxygen is now available and the lake comes back to life.  Incidentally, it’s worth noting that cancer is related to an acid environment  (lack of oxygen)—the higher the pH (the more oxygen present in the cells of the  body), the harder it is for cancer to thrive.
    Understanding  this is important for two reasons: (1) it reveals one of the primary benefits  of alkaline water—more “available” oxygen in the system and (2) it explains why  alkaline water helps fight cancer.
    The ocean, the mother of all life, has an  average pH of about 8.1.

        The ideal pH for blood sits at about 7.4, slightly alkaline—not acidic.

      Jon Barron
    Barron concludes:
    If you’re eating well and living cleanly, then yes,  you want to drink water with a naturally occurring pH only slightly above  neutral. However, if you are eating the typical Western diet, high in meat,  grains, sodas, and sugars that acidify the body, then you have a different  problem. Your pH balance is now so far out of normal that you must go beyond  normal in the other direction to counter it. My recommendation for daily  drinking water pH is about 7.5-8—depending on how acid forming your diet is.  Long-term consumption of higher pH water should be reserved for special  circumstances. The most famous mountain waters in the world, waters renowned  for their healing properties, are highly alkaline. I’m referring to the waters  coming down from the Himalayas, and specifically to the waters of the Hunza Valley,  which have a  pH that runs between 9 and 11.
    One does not have to be a doctor to  practice pH medicine. Every practitioner of the healing arts and every  mother and father needs to understand how to use sodium bicarbonate.  Bicarbonate deficiency is a real problem that deepens with age so it really  does pay to understand and appreciate what baking soda is all about.

  [1] Baking Soda  Might Have Potential Against Cancer: http://digitaljournal.com/article/323645
    [2] http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19276390
    [3] One sample  study is by Le, et al. (1986), in a French case-control study of 1,010 breast cancer cases  and 1,950 controls with nonmalignant diseases, found that breast cancer was  found to be associated with increased frequency of mold fermented cheese  consumption.
    [4] Going, et al. (1990) found that  weddellite (calcium oxalate) crystals are present in calcifications found in  the breast tissue of patients with breast cancer. Calcium  oxalate crystals are formed when calcium binds with oxalic acid. Oxalic acid is  a mycotoxin that can be produced by a number of different fungal species. Some  fungi produce such large amounts of oxalic acid that they are used for  commercial production of chemicals. Aspergillus niger fungal infection in human  lungs produces large amounts of oxalic acid.
    [5] Researchers  examined human DNA from a variety of tissues and organs to identify and quantify  aflatoxin DNA-adducts. Such adducts are considered to be proof of the  mycotoxin’s presence in a particular tissue.Their finding? “Tumor tissues had  higher aflatoxin-adduct levels than did normal tissue from the same  individual.”
