Author: Hermann Keppler, Naturopath, is the principal of the CNM (College of Naturopathic Medicine) However, most of us do suffer from one or more of these so-called civilization diseases. Many of them are said to be incurable and cost society hundreds of millions of pounds.
THE FACTS
The causes of civilization diseases are:
- acid-forming food
- mental stress (unsolved problems)
- medicinal drugs, vaccinations
- environmental pollution
With today's over-processed food and incorrect food combining, we fill our bodies up with 80 to 90% acid-forming food and drinks. These incorrect eating habits, as well as overeating, cause the stool to remain too long in the colon where it putrifies, thus resulting in many of the illnesses that we suffer from in today's society. This decay, an anaerobic process without the presence of oxygen, stimulates the formation of numerous gaseous hydrogen compounds, such as:
- hydrogen sulphide
- hydrocarbon
- hydro phosphorus
- hydrochloride
These unpleasant-smelling gases should be expelled from the body immediately. If these gases are not released, they combine with body liquids to form acids such as:
- sulphuric acids
- carbonic acids
- nitric acid
- phosphoric acids
- hydrochloric acids
The body now contains these numerous harmful acids which affect the cells, organs, glands and body functions. In order to prevent the harmful effect of these acids, the body works to expel them through the urine and the skin. When the body is unable to get rid of all the acids by this means, it prevents them from circulating through the system by extracting minerals and trace minerals and combining them with the remaining acids into salts, which cannot be easily dissolved.
These salts are deposited away from the vital organs in peripheral areas such as the legs, shoulders (vertebra), the neck and under the scalp. As a result of this, relatively harmless symptoms can develop, such as Cellulite, Kidney and Gall stones. These hardened salt crystals harboured under the skin are the cause of the pain associated with headaches, neuralga, Rheumatism and Arthritis.
Should this over-acidity of the body persist over a long period, severe of life-threatening conditions such as infarct or cancer may result. The need to convert aggressive acids into salts robs contemporary man of essential minerals and trace minerals. For example, in order to render phosphoric acid harmless by converting it into salt, the body strips calcium from the teeth. Other results of this mineral depletion would be deformation of nails, hair loss, receding gums and osteoporosis.
Over-acidity - the major cause of disease
The majority of people in our society today do suffer from overacidity of the body fluids, which make up to 70% of the body weight. Over-acid cells lose their flexibility. In the case of red blood cells for example, the loss of flexibility inhibits the elasticity and adaptability of the cells, thus impeding blood flow.
Dr. Kern, the German heart specialist, was the first to discover that heart infarct is caused by over-acidity. His research revealed that blood which flows through acid tissues itself becomes acidic. When the PH of the heart is at or below 6.4, the red blood cells become inflexible and unable to deform sufficiently to pass through the narrow capillaries. Once the red blood cells are attached against the capillary walls, they cause a blockage.
According to Dr. Kern, heart infarct is nothing more than a gigantic acid catastrophe. This situation can also cause a stroke, poor blood circulation or high blood pressure. Capillary damage is, infact, acid damage, and has nothing to do with the arteries themselves (contrary to medical opinion).
In a young person, overeating and acid food do not necessarily have this damaging effect on the body, but as a person grows older, the metabolism becomes progressively more acid and organ damage (civilization disease) starts to develop.
High cholesterol levels
As we have seen, the body needs calcium in order to neutralize over-acidity of the blood. Calcium is available in the bone, but exraction is a slow process and when high acidity levels are present in life-threatening proportions, the body has to take calcium from the nearest source and begins to strip it from the aterial walls. The missing calcium is replaced by cholesterol (always present in the body), which is highly resistant to acids.
The so-called 'harding arteries' is a mis-nomer for the replacement of calcium by cholesterol. This cholesterol hardens and renders the blood vessels brittle.
How to get rid of Acidity
The main causes of civilization diseases are:
- A deficiency of trace minerals and minerals
- Aggressive acid action and salt crystal deposits
There are 3 major means to combat civilization diseases:
1. Continual dissoluton of salt crystal deposits
2. Flushing out the acids
3. Continuous supple of trace minerals and minerals to replace those lost
ORGON 7×7 ALKAHERB, a tea consisting of 49 different herbs and spices, which together provide all of the 55 elements that make up human body chemistry, is particularly successful in dissolving and flushing out the impurities from the body, via the urine.
The ORGON ALKABATH aids the flushing out process. Three tablespoons of Alkabath to a full bath of water will create a pH of 8.5. Because the skin has a pH of 5.0 to 6.0, the acids are expelled by the osmosis from the skin into the bath. By this means, not only body acids but also environmental pollutants are eliminated.
By actual electronic measurement it has been demonstrated that an initial pH of 8.5 is reduced to 8.0 after a bath, lasting one hour.The bath water showed a corresonding increase of 5 times the acidity.
ORGON ALKABATH contains three active compounds which produce the following effects: a flushing-out of impourities, a supple of minerals and a rev-vitalization of the whole system.
1. Alkaline salts, such as sodium bicarbonate etc., create an alkaline pH level.
2. Sea salt and a special combination of minerals, supply the needed minerals via the skin.
3. Another energy-rich mixture of trace minerals, and minerals creates a revitalizing effect on the body.
A quick wash-down or short bath with ALKABATH has a detoxifying effect on the whole system. A half hour, or (for optimum effect) one hour, bath flushes out the toxins and impurities and allows minerals to be absorbed by the skin.
Brushing the skin during the ALKABATH greatly boosts the elimination of toxins.
The effect of ORGON baths on skin fungi and other skin complaint is remarkable. Skin fungi will only grow in an acid environment. The alkaline salt robs the fungus of its acid habitat. Positive results can only be achieved through regular, long term use.
Some extremely successful results have been obtained in an Austrian clinic. There, patients who had ALKABATH treatments after Chemotherapy showed increased energy levels.
ORGON ALKABATH is a vital energy source for the skin, cells, glands and muscles.
Ageing of the skin is the result of impurities, therefore the removal of such impurities has a positive, beneficial effect on the appearance. This applies to wrinkles, 'muddy' skin and age-spots. If it is impossible to take a bath, we recommend damp, warm ALKABATH wraps or compresses. With these compresses or wraps it is possible to draw out acids from specific areas of the body. This is particularly effective with muscle pain after sport, rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, arthritis and gout. Regular foot baths are useful, not just to maintain the feet but also to stimulate (via the reflex zones) the organs.
ORGAN ALKALIFE is an energy and mineral rich food supplement. It reduces mineral loss and replenishes the body's minerals and trace minerals. ALKALIFE is extremely rich in biologically-active oxygen and therefore transforms the anaerobic process and decaying process in the constipated colon toan aerobic process. Because of this aerobic action, the toxifying hydrogen gases no longer occur. The colon turns from a source of acidity into a supplier of nutrients. The build-up of Candida, with its harmful effects on the liver and brain cells, is halted by oxygen-rich ALKALIFE.
Very positive results with ALKALIFE have been obtained in cases of hair loss, receding gums and osteoporosis. Sportsmen take ALKALIFE to build up their muscles. If you know that hormone production depends on correct acid-alkaline balance, it will be clear that women who use ALKALIFE do not experience period or menopausal problems.
Alcohol, cigarettes and drugs leech minerals and thus deplete the body's essential suppliers.
Men suffering from loss of sexual drive and potency will notice a resurgence after regular use of ALKALIFE, which also has a beneficial effect on prostate problems.
