The basic principal is this: If you have a lot of acid (H+) in your system it steals oxygen to make water (H20), but if you are basic (OH-) it will join together to form water, but release oxygen to your system (H2O + O2). So simple......
This is a very simple replacement for Ozone, hyperbaric chambers, oxygen therapy, and everything else.
Also, if you combine this with MMS (miraclemineral.org) you are very far on your way.
1. Baking soda will neutralize stomach acid leading to a whole host of problems.
2. Many pathogenic microbes THRIVE in an alkaline environment and are killed by acid.
3. High alkalinity (alkalosis) is also a major problem.
4. Many acids are beneficial for the body. For example lactic acid and acetic acid are used by the body to control the growth of many bacteria and yeast that thrive in an alkaline environment. Lactic acid also helps to control cancer growth. Glucoronic acid helps the body to detox. Ascorbic acid helps to boost our immune system. Hyaluronic acid holds our bodies together and helps to prevent the spread of pathogens and cancer cells through the tissues. Oxalic acid helps to stimulate immune function by increasing phagocytosis. Citric acid and malic acids are essential for the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which fuels the cells and helps them to function properly. This is just a partial list.
Yes, this is all true. However, if you are living a life where you have an outbreak every other day for months on end, then I think you too will try anything. Can you agree that a pH of 7.4-7.6 is healthy? Can you agree that a pH of 4-6 is not healthy, even for type O blood? When I test my urine my pH strip turns white - I'd love to hear your theories about why. I'd also love to hear you tell me how healthy that is. However, I just discovered that I have liver fluke parasites which may be causing an acidic pH.
So, to counter this I take 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda two times a day to start and then back off to once a day. I will up my dosage if I do heavy drinking or eat a lot of carbs. Also, this should be done one hour before and two hours after any food as it does indeed interfere with stomach acid. I then test my morning urine to ensure that I am in the 7.4-7.6 range using pH paper.
I have been able to very successfully stop/reverse 7 outbreaks now with the Baking Soda Herpes Cure. If I get tingle or full blown blisters, this stops it every time.
P.S. Cancer is acidic - I have read nowhere that Lactic Acid prevents its growth. The "baking soda cancer cure" is specifically designed to kill most cancers by neutralizing its acidity. I'd like to hear more about that.
herpescure, that 'acid this' and 'acid that' seems misleading as the overall pH of the body or blood itself. Specific 'acids' are localized agents, you don't find them floating around the whole system. It is the blood pH that is of concern, as it travels and feeds most of our body.
Even swimming pool pH strips can help monitor blood pH to safe levels when using baking soda, by adding 1 point to the strip urine reading: 6.4 ('acid' urine) means 7.4 blood. Simple arithmetic. And a number of people i know and myself, and only for experimental or theurapeutic purposes, add ONE level tsp of baking soda to one glass of distilled water, zipped in 24 hrs or at once, no problem to me, and that will raise the pH by ONE POINT for 24 hrs, or 7.4 urine (8.4 blood), and as long a condition is being remedied.
Two cups of (distilled) water and two chopped regular Kombucha mushrooms turned into pudding in a blender, can be added by half-cupfulls to ice cream (for flavor)with nuts and fruits, for an easy way to break down LACTIC ACID, after muscle breakdown with exercise, physical work, or a cancerous condition, therefore eliminating or reducing pain. Lactic acid does NOT help with cancer, it is a by-product of it.
B-15, the Russian Formula, Calcium-Pangamate, will also reduce muscle pain by breaking down Lactid Acid in tissues, metabolizing it to Glucose and storing it in the liver for further energy use. This was proven back in the 60's by athletes and bio-chemists, but Pharma, the FDA, and organized medicine (and the government) kept it from the masses.
I'm having excellent results in controlling outbreaks by using baking soda. It's the best thing I've tried so far. Try it alternatively with food grade hydrogen peroxide (a few drops in water) for even better results.
