Building the Blood

Our next step after balancing our pH is rebuilding our blood. Now remember one of the most important elements in this process is to continue to drink water. Start with 8 8oz. glasses of pure water not tap water. Let your system get used to this amount of water & try to slowly build up. We don't want to over tax our system, but water is one of the key elements for detoxifying our system. The next most important thing you can do is drink Essiac Tea. This will increase the red blood cell count & give overall immune system support. You can email me for the recipe of Essiac Tea. You will have a drastic improvement within one to two months. Continue drinking large quantites of purified water & Essiac Tea daily during the other steps also. These 2 practices can be continued for life.

pH is the Key

Our bodies must be rebuilt slowly. We did not do the damage that has been done to our bodies overnight. Likewise the problem cannot be corrected overnight. Our mindset is what is wrong. We want instant gratification, a pill to fix us up quick. Pills usually just end up masking the symptom until other symptoms occur. It is because very rarely do they treat the root cause of the problem, it is usually the symptom that is treated. The first thing that must be done to get the body on the right track is get the pH balanced. You can buy pH test strips at your local health food store or online. Test your saliva (in a spoon not in your mouth) & your urine. This will tell you what is happening inside your body. You want to get in the 6's & close to 7 is what you are looking for. Bacteria, virus & fungus cannot live in a high pH, low pH are their breeding grounds. This is the single most important step. If it is not done the others won't work. That is why you can't get well, or the herbal remedies don't work. The basic ways to do this is cut your acid food consumption & increase your alkaline forming food consumption. Read the post on Alkalizing & Acid Foods. During this time you can check your temperature, normally it is below 98.6 when your pH is low. Your blood circulation has slowed & so have all the cleaning systems, like the Liver & the Kidneys. If your blood is not being cleaned daily, toxin build up is bound to happen. We lose all energy, no matter how many quality vitamins we are taking, our bodies are unable to assimilate them. Our bodies are basically on overload, & can't do another thing. It is not even doing the things it is currently doing efficiently. So you see we must rid or cleanse the body of toxins before we can try to rebuild it or we are doomed to failure, since we are overtaxing our systems. We didn't break it overnight so it will take longer than a day to fix it!

Water Is Usually the Answer

Isn't it funny that we will spend hundreds of dollars & countless hours looking for the answers & when we find them it dawns on us we knew them all along. Many of our questions could be answered with the word "water". We all learned in school our bodies are made up of 70% water. So it just makes good sense to fill it back up with clean water. Then why should we ask "What is wrong with me?" when we replenish our (70% water) body with soft drinks, milk & many other thirst quenchers? The first thing we do when we opt against water is we fill up on drinks high in sugar & usually caffeine. So this loads up the body on toxins that the body has to cleanse out & the body does this with water, but we just decided against water. So with no way to be flushed out of the body these toxins build up in fat cells. The afternoon down we feel is a slight dehydration of the body. If we would reach for water instead of something else our body would greatly reward us. Many times we mistake hunger for thirst. If we would try a glass of water when we think we are hungry we would be surprised how many times this will satisfy us. Many health problems would clear up with proper water intake. Water is the answer!
