Certain viruses (including the rhinoviruses and coronaviruses that are most often responsible for the common cold and influenza viruses that produce flu) infect host cells by fusion with cellular membranes at low pH. Thus they are classified as "pH-dependent viruses."
Drugs that increase intracellular pH (alkalinity within the cell) have been shown to decrease infectivity of pH-dependent viruses. Since such drugs can provoke negative side effects, the obvious question is whether more natural techniques can produce the same result.

Interestingly, many viruses (10-20), including the rhinoviruses most often responsible for the common cold (21) infect host cells by fusing with the cell membrane at low pH. Thus a mildly acidic environment is required for optimal infectivity of such pH-dependent viruses. Drugs that increase intracellular pH (alkalinity) have been shown to decrease infectivity of rhinovirus (22).

There is far too much information on this to continue offering references... including university studies... on pH and both the action of adjusting the pH in cases of rhinovirus, among others, and cancers of various origins.
Adjusting the pH in fighting illness/disease is done with either drugs in mainstream medical studies OR alkaline minerals/compounds in natural health studies. the alkaline mineral
Science is very primitive at this time. What many in this field do not understand, evidenced by their narrow minded focus and use of specific high pH substances like, cesium and sodium bicarbonate, etc... is that quite honestly, the alkaline mineral that has a specific affinity to a specific diseased bodily organ/system (vibrational frequency), will work the best in that particular circumstance...
I hope some scientist in this field is reading this...
Why? Because that will be/is THE mineral "deficiency" that particular body is struggling against. Correct it in such a way that the body can absorb, utilize and adjust and healing WILL take place.
