Neutralization of acids[edit]
Sodium bicarbonate reacts spontaneously with acids, releasing CO2 gas as a reaction product. It is commonly used to neutralize unwanted acid solutions or acid spills in chemical laboratories.
Sodium bicarbonate is a salt that breaks down to form sodium and bicarbonate in water. This breakdown makes a solution alkaline, meaning it is able to neutralize acid. Because of this, sodium bicarbonate is often used to treat conditions caused by high acidity in the body, such as heartburn.
People apply sodium bicarbonate to the skin for chemical burns, dental plaque, earwax removal, eczema, insect bites or stings, infertility, inflammation in the mucous membranes lining the digestive tract, poison oak and poison ivy, itchy skin (pruritus), and scaly, itchy skin (psoriasis).
Sodium bicarbonate is an antacid used to relieve heartburn and acid indigestion. Your doctor also may prescribe sodium bicarbonate to make your blood or urine less acidic in certain conditions
Sodium bicarbonate is injected intravenously (by IV) for heart resuscitation, poor kidney function, cocaine toxicity, to prevent kidney damage caused by dyes used during some X-ray exams, poisoning from certain allergy medications, reviving newborns, pesticide poisoning, prevention of chemotherapy side effects, breakdown of muscles, and fluid build-up in the lungs caused by a certain chemical.
People take sodium bicarbonate by mouth for bowel cleansing, poor kidney function, indigestion, exercise performance, high potassium in the blood, reviving newborns, stomach ulcers, and urinary stones.
Sports Supplement[edit]
Sodium bicarbonate is taken as a sports supplement to improve muscular endurance, In strength training, muscular endurance refers to the number of repetitions of a single exercise you can do without needing to stop and rest
Sodium bicarbonate mixed with water can be used as an antacid to treat acid indigestion and heartburn
Intravenous sodium bicarbonate in an aqueous solution is sometimes used for cases of acidosis, or when insufficient sodium or bicarbonate ions are in the blood.
HCO3− is used for treatment of hyperkalemia, as it will drive K+ back into cells during periods of acidosis.[39] Since sodium bicarbonate can cause alkalosis, it is sometimes used to treat aspirin overdoses
Sodium bicarbonate can be added to local anesthetics, to speed up the onset of their effects and make their injection less painful.
Sodium bicarbonate is a salt that breaks down to form sodium and bicarbonate in water. This makes a solution alkaline, meaning it's able to neutralize acid.
People commonly use sodium bicarbonate for indigestion. It is also used for stomach ulcers, athletic performance, kidney damage, dental plaque, tooth discoloration, and many other conditions
Sodium
bicarbonate
None of
us dreamed that sodium bicarbonate is already part of orthodox oncology and is
included in many chemotherapy protocols to protect the patient’s kidneys,
hearts and nervous systems. bicarbonate is also a world class anti-fungicide
Sodium bicarbonate will be given to you – usually as a drip – before and during
your methotrexate treatment, to help protect your kidneys. It is commonly used
prior to, during, and after application of chemotherapy.
Some
studies actually have already shown how manipulation of tumor pH with sodium
bicarbonate enhances chemotherapy Aagain pointing to the
possibility that bicarbonate is the main chemo agent saving people from their
cancers.Since the very beginning sodium bicarbonate has been used with the premier
chemotherapy agent made from mustard gas.
We are
talking about serious medicine when we talk about sodium bicarbonate. Earlier
and more frequent use of sodium bicarbonate is associated with higher early
resuscitability rates and with better long-term neurological outcomes in
emergency units. Sodium bicarbonate is beneficial during CPR.
We
are also talking about an exceptionally safe
medicine when we talk about bicarbonate. Chemotherapy drugs and
corticoids reduce the bone marrow production of cells. In addition, these drugs
damage the integrity of the skin tegument, and of the respiratory and
gastrointestinal tracts, facilitating the penetration of microorganisms into
the host. Bicarbonate does none of this.
Sodium
bicarbonate lessens the development of polycystic kidney disease in rats.
Chronic administration of 200 mM sodium bicarbonate to rats inhibited cystic
enlargement and prevented the subsequent development of interstitial
inflammation, chronic fibrosis, and uremia.
Bicarbonate
ions and water are two of the most natural compounds on Earth.
We do
not have to fear bicarbonate intake. And in fact, people who live in areas of
the world with high amounts of bicarbonate in their drinking waters have a
striking decreased mortality rate and a decreased prevalence of disease. Sodium
bicarbonate, though often used as a medicine, is unlike pharmaceutical
compounds.
It is a
natural non-toxic substance that does not require clinical trials for an
assessment of toxicity. Spring waters contain bicarbonate ions which are
coupled mainly with sodium, potassium, calcium or magnesium ions. A deficiency
of bicarbonate ions in the body contributes to a range of diseases and medical
conditions.
Sodium
bicarbonate acts as a powerful, natural and safe antifungal agent, which
when combined with iodine, would probably cover the entire spectrum of
microbial organisms. The efficacy of sodium bicarbonate against certain
bacteria and fungi has been documented. Its role as a disinfectant
against viruses, however, is not generally known. Sodium bicarbonate at
concentrations of 5% and above was found to be effective with 99.99% reduction
viral titers on food contact surfaces within a contact time of 1 min.
Bicarbonate
is a truly strong universal concentrated nutritional medicine that works
effectively in many clinical situations that we would not normally think of.
For instance: The treatment of Interstitial Cystitis and Painful Bladder
Syndrome depends on "rescue" instillations (or cocktails) of
customized solutions that can be placed in the bladder and immediately help
reduce pain and discomfort.
If
the anesthetic is alkalinized with a precise amount of sodium
bicarbonate, it dramatically improves its ability to pass through the
mucous to reach and soothe the irritated nerves and tissues beneath. In reality
we need a more descriptive image for bicarbonate. Its pharmacological
characteristics, even though widely used, are not well understood. What does
bicarbonate really do? Well, instead of a muscleman with a mallet, an even better
image would be a strong janitor mopping up the messes and carrying the poisons
away. This strong janitor protects tissues and leaves an alkaline film or trail
behind to make sure everything stays safe. In medicine, sodium bicarbonate is
the cleaning and security man proven loyal through decades of faithful
service.
Sodium
bicarbonate is only classified as a medicine if it is in injectable form. Otherwise
it is a legal food item found in every supermarket useful for literally
hundreds of applications. It is so useful, effective and safe that it will even
help rid us of our cancers.
he
National Cancer Institute recommends that sodium bicarbonate for treatment of
Oral mucositis, which is an inflammation of oral mucosa resulting from
chemotherapeutic agents or ionizing radiation.
It is
certain that sodium bicarbonate is a cancer treatment because it is used by
oncologists and other personnel associated with the treatment of cancer
victims.
There
has been considerable interest in the use of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate,
NaHCO3) and potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3) to control powdery mildew and other
fungal diseases of plants.
Sodium
Carbonate and Sodium bicarbonate were equal and superior to the other salts for
control of green mold on oranges.
Most of
us were amazed to find out that there is an oncologist in Rome, Italy
destroying cancer tumors with sodium bicarbonate.
Sodium
bicarbonate is safe, extremely inexpensive and effective when it comes to
cancer tissues. It is irresistible cyanide to cancer cells.
It hits
the cancer cells with a shock wave of alkalinity, which
allows much more oxygen into the cancer cells than they can tolerate. Cancer
cells cannot survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen. Sodium
bicarbonate is, for all intent and purposes, a quick killer of tumors. Full
treatment takes only a few weeks. Follow up treatments are highly recommended.
One of the first patients I treated was an 11-year-old child, a case which
immediately indicated that I was on the right track. The child arrived in a
coma at the paediatric haematology ward around 11:30 in the morning, with a
clinical history of leukaemia. Because of the child’s disease he had been taken
from a small town in Sicily to Rome, through the universities of Palermo and
Naples, where he underwent several chemotherapy sessions. His desperate mother
told me that she had been unable to speak with the child for 15 days; that is,
since the child had been on his journey through the various hospitals. She said
she would have given the world to hear her son’s voice once again before he
died. As I was of the opinion that the child was comatose both because of the
proliferation of fungal colonies in the brain and because of the toxicity of
the therapies that had been performed on him, I concluded that if I could
destroy the colonies with sodium bicarbonate salts and at the same time nourish
and detoxify the brain with glucose administered intravenously, I could hope
for a regression of the symptoms.
And so
it was. After a continuous intravenous infusion of bicarbonate and glucose
solutions, at around 7pm, when I returned to the university, I found the child
speaking with his mother, who was in tears.
The
bicarbonate transport system is a simple yet central part of our body's normal
functioning. So it should come as no surprise that disruption of
bicarbonate transport underlies many diseases.
HCO3-
is impermeable to biological membranes. Specialized plasma membrane bicarbonate
transport proteins (bicarbonate transporter) are therefore required to facilitate
HCO3- movement into and out of cells. Because HCO3- is a base,
bicarbonate transporter-mediated influx induces cellular alkalinization, while
efflux causes acidification.
Though
we have known that oral intake of sodium bicarbonate will have the ‘Simoncini”
effect on oral, esophagus and stomach cancer no one has focused on the systemic
effect of bicarbonate taken orally. Every cancer patient and every health care
practitioner should know that oral intake of sodium
bicarbonate offers a strong shift of body pH into the alkaline. So
strong is the effect that athletes can notice the difference in their breathing
as more oxygen (and thus CO2) is carried throughout the system as more acids
are neutralized.
The
difference can be stunning for those whose respiration is labored under intense
exercise loading. This tells us to take very seriously the oral use of
bicarbonate for cancer treatment no matter what other
treatment is used.
Raising
pH increases the immune system's ability to kill bacteria. This was the
conclusion of a study conducted at The Royal Free Hospital and School of
Medicine in London. This is a tip-off to an entirely new way allopathic
medicine can look at disease and its treatment. By paying attention to basic
physiology (pH) and effecting shifts from acid to alkaline we go a long way in
reversing cancer and other chronic diseases.
Sodium
bicarbonate injection is indicated in the treatment of metabolic acidosis,
which may occur in severe renal disease, uncontrolled diabetes, and circulatory
insufficiency due to shock or severe dehydration, extracorporeal circulation of
blood, cardiac arrest and severe primary lactic acidosis. Sodium bicarbonate is
further indicated in the treatment of drug intoxications, including
barbiturates.
Sodium
bicarbonate is effective in treating poisonings or overdoses from many
chemicals and pharmaceutical drugs by negating the cardiotoxic and neurotoxic
effects.
Substituting
a sodium bicarbonate solution for saline infusion prior to administration of
radiocontrast material seems to reduce the incidence of nephropathy.
Sodium
bicarbonate (baking soda), which is harmless as opposed to the often lethal use
of chemotherapy.
“The
therapeutic treatment of bicarbonate salts can be administered orally, through
aerosol, intravenously and through catheter for direct targeting of tumors,”
says
Dr. Tullio Simoncini, whose treatments with sodium
bicarbonate are directed as specifically as possible to the organs involved.
For example, vaginally as well as abdominally into the peritoneal space
for cervical cancer, through the hepatic artery for liver cancer in order to
get the solution as close to the affected area as possible. cancer is a fungus
most easily treated by sodium bicarbonate.
Simoncini
says that sodium bicarbonate administered orally, via aerosol or intravenously
can achieve positive results only in some tumors. According to him, cancers
such as the serious ones of the brain or the bones remain unaffected by his
treatment. You will find in this book some new ideas about how to extend
treatment into these hard to get to areas.
Dr.
Simoncini still recommends radiation treatment for those with bone cancer.
Imagine my surprise when I got a letter from an elated person who got a report
back from his oncologist, after self administering sodium bicarbonate orally,
that he had cured his bone cancer. The very day before, I had received a report
from another doctor, who confirmed remission from stage two lung cancer, also
after taking oral bicarbonate. For decades there have been reports of cancer
remissions from bicarbonate taken orally but it is only now that we are
receiving confirmed before and after tests from oncologists indicating its
effectiveness.
Bicarbonate
is an excellent antifungal. “Even patients who had been committed to mental
hospitals have been helped by anti-fungal therapy. Other puzzling immunologic
diseases, including multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and lupus
erythematosus, have responded better when attention was given to reduction of
yeast and immune stress.
A wide
spectrum of allergic disorders, from classical hay fever to chronic,
delayed-onset type of food allergy and petrochemical sensitivity, have improved
following anti-yeast therapy,”
Says
Dr. Elmer M. Cranton. Sodium bicarbonate has its place in a wide spectrum
of clinical disorders and it certainly has its place in oncology where dealing
with what they call late stage fungal infections is important.
Doctors
cannot legally use bicarbonate to treat cancer unless they add the chemo poisons
to it. But regular doctors who do not subscribe to this insanity can use it to
treat the acid conditions that are everyday parts of the condition we call
cancer. It is almost impossible to find doctors who know or would be willing to
administer bicarbonate IV treatments to cancer patients. So they will be
relieved to be able to just send people home to take their oral dosages.
Legally and medically it’s not much different then telling people to taking
some form of aspirin when suffering from a fever or headache. The big
difference though is that sodium bicarbonate has a much better safety record
than aspirin.
The
most effective measure to treat RT-induced mucositis in patients with head and
neck cancer is frequent oral rinsing with a sodium bicarbonate rinse, to reduce
the amount of oral microbial flora.
Bicarbonate
ions create the conditions for increased glucose transport across cell plasma
membranes. As we will see later, it also helps magnesium get into the
mitochondria. Hence, sodium bicarbonate should be of benefit in the treatment
of diabetes, particularly Type 2 diabetes. Bicarbonate ions also create the
alkaline conditions for maintaining the enzyme activity of pancreatic
secretions in the intestines thus it should be of benefit in the treatment of
pancreatitis. Bicarbonate ions neutralize the acid conditions required for
chronic inflammatory reactions.
Hence, sodium
bicarbonate should be of benefit in the treatment of a range of
chronic
inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Bicarbonate ions
modify the acid conditions in osteoclast cells in bone and modify the acid
conditions in Synovial Type A cells in joints thus it should be of benefit in
the treatment of osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and even bone cancer.
Bicarbonate
ions neutralize the acid conditions required for acid protease enzyme activity
as well as other lysosomal and endosomal enzyme activities. Therefore sodium
bicarbonate should be of benefit in the treatment of many neurodegenerative
diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and many viral
diseases such as influenza, HIV and SARS.
For
practitioners of the healing arts bicarbonate is as useful and friendly as
water. The two together make for powerful medicine. The bicarbonate story is
actually fascinating, especially when you dig deeper. For instance we find out
that intravenous vitamin C therapy, which is claimed to be an effective cancer
treatment, is often given with sodium bicarbonate. “Given the amount of fluid,
which is used as a vehicle for the ascorbate, sodium hydroxide/sodium
bicarbonate is used to adjust the pH.”
Sodium
bicarbonate should be used as part of cancer treatment and not be considered a
miracle cure since the term "miracle cure" translates into
"quack cure" in the medical profession.
Bicarbonate
is no more a miracle than water. Though if you believe that life and water are
miracles then one can understand miracles do occur in medicine. When we return
to the basics of life, which include full hydration for health, we certainly
can expect good things to happen. This book could have been called “The Water
and Sodium Bicarbonate Cancer Treatment,” since it calls for bicarbonate and
water. Even when bicarbonate is taken with honey, maple syrup or black strap
molasses one still has to mind hydration issues for bicarbonate needs plenty of
water to do its work.
This
book is not saying that sodium bicarbonate is the cure to cancer but it is
saying that
almost
every cancer patient should be taking it.
Yes,
what is in this box can save your life. Sodium bicarbonate is a
perfect medicine as is magnesium chloride and iodine. The use of antimicrobial
agents (e.g., antibiotics, antiseptics, antifungal) plays an important part in
current medical therapy. This is particularly true in the fields of dermatology
as well as skin and wound antisepsis. Effective treatments for skin or mucous
membranes, which are afflicted with bacterial, fungal, or viral infections or
lesions, frequently include the use of topical antimicrobial agents.
Sodium
bicarbonate neutralizes acids present in gases (in particular hydrochloric
acid, suphur dioxide, hydrofluoric acid) to form sodium salts (sodium chloride,
sodium sulphate, sodium fluoride, sodium carbonate), which are all known as
Residual Sodium Chemicals. Sodium bicarbonate can be made into a paste salve
with vinegar, it relieves burning from bug stings (particularly bee stings),
poison ivy,
Nettles,
and sunburn. It is used as an antacid to treat acid indigestion and heartburn.
Mixed with water in a 10% solution can soften earwax for removal.
Sodium
bicarbonate possesses the property of absorbing heavy metals, dioxins and
furans. Comparison of cancer tissue with healthy tissue from the
same person shows that the cancer tissue has a much higher concentration of
toxic chemicals, pesticides, etc.
Because
sodium bicarbonate has long been known and is widely used, it has many other
names including sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium bicarb, baking soda, bread
soda, cooking soda, bicarb soda, saleratus or bicarbonate of soda. It is soluble
in water. This white solid is crystalline but often appears as a fine powder.
It has a slight alkaline taste resembling that of sodium carbonate. It is a
component of the mineral natron, which is found dissolved in many mineral
springs. It is also produced artificially. World wide production is on the
scale of 100,000 ton/year.
Sodium
bicarbonate is primarily used in cooking (baking) where it reacts with other
components
to release carbon dioxide, which helps dough "rise."
Sodium
bicarbonate administration increases urinary pH. Urinary pH between 6.5 and 7.0
can keep uric acid ionized and prevent its crystallization in renal tubules.
Sodium
bicarbonate powder mixed with water is a very effective first aid remedy. This
can be used as a mouth rinse and can be swallowed. Bicarbonate is a natural
buffering compound manufactured daily in large quantities by the body. Canker
sores (aphthous ulcers) are tiny ulcerations that occur in the oral cavity on
or near the tongue and on the inner mucous membrane of the lip. They can be
very painful to the point of interfering with speech and eating. They also tend
to heal slowly. The source of the problem is usually an acid condition in the
body caused by food or chemical allergies. Sodium bicarbonate is effective for
canker sores and ulcers.
It is
commonly used to increase the pH and total alkalinity of the water for pools
and spas. Sodium bicarbonate can be added as a simple solution for restoring
the pH balance of water that has a high level of chlorine. It is sometimes used
in septic tanks to control pH and bacteria.
Sodium
bicarbonate-rich mineral water in conjunction with a low-salt diet may have a
beneficial effect on calcium homeostasis.
The
native chemical and physical properties of sodium bicarbonate account for its
wide range of applications, including cleaning, deodorizing, buffering, and
fire extinguishing. Sodium bicarbonate neutralizes odors chemically, rather
than masking or absorbing them. Consequently, it is used in bath salts and
deodorant body powders. Sodium bicarbonate tends to maintain a pH of 8.1 (7 is
neutral) even when acids, which lower pH, or bases, which raise pH, are added
to the solution.
Its
ability to tabletize makes it a good effervescent ingredient in antacids and
denture cleaning products. Sodium bicarbonate is also found in some anti-plaque
mouthwash products and toothpaste.
pH
of the blood is the most important factor to determine the state of the
microorganisms in the blood.
Sodium
bicarbonate also is indicated in severe diarrhea which is often accompanied by
a significant loss of bicarbonate. Vigorous bicarbonate therapy is required in
any form of metabolic acidosis where a rapid increase in plasma total CO2
content is crucial † e.g. cardiac arrest, circulatory insufficiency due to shock
or severe dehydration, and in severe primary lactic acidosis or severe diabetic
acidosis.
Research
suggests that administering sodium bicarbonate in intravenous (IV) form
can significantly improve pH and Pco2 in children with life-threatening
asthma. Respiratory distress and level of consciousness both improved
after the administration of sodium bicarbonate.
Sodium
bicarbonate can be used with other non-prescription drugs for short-term
treatment of various conditions to treat anything from fever to moderate pain.
Dr
Tullio Simoncini says, “It is useful to consider
the extreme sensitivity of fungi to saline and electrolytic solutions. These
solutions, because of their extreme capacity for diffusion, are able to reach
all the myceliar biological expressions, including the most infinitesimal
ones.
Salts
and bicarbonates, by making the “terrain” completely inorganic, eliminate the
slightest organic fonts that fungi could use for nourishment.
In
this context, sodium bicarbonate, which is currently used in children’s oral
candidoses, appears to be a simple and handy weapon capable of uprooting,
inhibiting, or attenuating any neoplastic formation wherever it is possible to
easily apply it.”
Cancer
is actually a four-letter word — ACID, especially lactic acid as a waste
product due to the low oxygen level and waste products of yeast and fungus.
To assess statistically
the efficacy of sodium bicarbonate baths in psoriasis patients, thirty-one with
mild-moderate psoriasis were studied. Almost all patients who used NaHCO3-
reported a statistically valuable improvement. NaHCO3- baths reduced itchiness
and irritation; in general, the patients themselves recognized a beneficial
impact on their psoriasis, so much so that they have continued to bathe in
NaHCO3- even after the end of the study.
Patients
combine this with transdermal magnesium therapy and one will have a clear
resolution of psoriasis. Viruses and bacteria that cause bronchitis and colds
thrive in an acidic environment. To fight a respiratory infection and dampen
symptoms such as a runny nose and sore throat, taking an alkalizing mixture of
sodium bicarbonate and potassium bicarbonate will certainly help. It could and
should be taken during an asthma attack and for severe headache as well
as many other common aliments.
The
kidneys are usually the first organs to show chemical damage upon uranium
exposure. Military manuals suggest doses or infusions of sodium
bicarbonate to help alkalinize the urine if this happens. This makes the
uranyl ion less kidney-toxic and promotes excretion of the nontoxic
uranium-carbonate complex. The oral administration of sodium bicarbonate
diminishes the severity of the changes produced by uranium in the kidneys.
Sodium
bicarbonate is commonly used as an antacid for short-term relief of stomach
upset, to correct acidosis in kidney disorders, to make the urine alkaline
during bladder infections and to minimize uric acid crystallization during gout
treatment. Prescription sodium bicarbonate products are given by injection to
treat metabolic acidosis and some drug intoxications. Sodium bicarbonate is
available as a nonprescription medical as well as a general house hold item. It
is also used with other non-prescription drugs for short-term treatment of
various conditions to treat anything from fever to moderate pain.
Sodium
bicarbonate-rich mineral water in conjunction with a low-salt diet may have a
beneficial effect on calcium homeostasis.
Though allopathic
medicine already uses sodium bicarbonate it will not any day soon turn to its
own arsenal of already available safe and inexpensive medications like sodium
bicarbonate or magnesium chloride.
Sodium
bicarbonate is an anti-fungin substancethat is very diffusible and thus very
effective.
Pancreatic
Secretion of Bicarbonate:Pancreatic secretion of
bicarbonate decreases in severemalnutrition in spite of increased flow rate of
pancreatic secretion.
HCO3-
enters duct cells across the basolateral membrane via a Na+-HCO3- cotransporter
(NBC), thought to transport 1 Na+ for 2-3 HCO3-. Other studies show that HCO3-
entry is also indirect, involving CO2 permeation, hydration by the carbonic
anhydrase to HCO3- and H+, after which H+ is extruded out of the cell by the
Na+-H+ exchanger, and/or the H+ pump. Since inhibition of carbonic anhydrase
decreases HCO3- secretion by 60-80 % in most species, and since other
lipid-soluble buffers can substitute for HCO3-/CO2, these two systems are
important in secretion.
Uses
for Other Disorders
Sodium
Bicarbonate has attractive and potent analgesic qualities. Dr.
Tullio Simoncini recommends that his cancer patients, undergoing his
bicarbonate protocols usually via IV administration, take 1 tsp. of sodium
bicarbonate mixed in water per day, for pain control as well as to assist in
keeping an alkaline internal environment.
We are
of course dropping the IV administration as a general recommendation. Though,
for some cases it might be appropriate. Many people have
found bicarbonate to be significant to relieve unrelenting headaches as well as
pain relief due to physical injury. Within minutes headaches begin
to subside and are often completely gone within 30-60 minutes.
"After
suffering from a 4 hour long blinding headache for which nothing I took brought
any relief. I tried the sodium bicarbonate with 1 tsp mixed in a glass of
water. Within a few short minutes I could feel the headache abating
and within the hour it was completely relieved! I tried this again
when another headache occurred, and it worked just as miraculously."
“After
suffering a shoulder injury that caused so much pain after even a few minutes
of computer typing, and with none of the natural pain relieving methods
providing much relief, odium bicarbonate was suggested at the 2 hour dosing
schedule.
” Sodium
chloride 0.9%, or sodium bicarbonate are as effective as any other
cerumenolytic ear drop.
"This
is the best pain reliever of all the ones I have been trying. I am
amazed that something so simple would be so potent! I haven't exceeded 7 a day;
but wish I d. It takes
the pain away for about 2 hours. Nothing seems to work more then 2 hours
at a time."
Sodium
bicarbonate 5% ear drops. Age from 6 months onwards. Sodium bicarbonate ear drops. Put 3 to 4 drops into
the affected ear(s) 3 to 4 times a day for 3 to 5
days. http://cks.library.nhs.uk/earwax/view_whole_guidance
Alternate
and use with iodine to combat ear infections.
On day
5 of chemotherapy, he was admitted to our intensive care unit (ICU) with tumor
lysis syndrome (urate 24.6 mg/dl, LDH 1120 U/l, phosphate 4.0 mmol/l) andacute
renal failure (BUN 122 mg/dl, creatinine 3.3 mg/dl) (normal range: urate
3.5–7.0 mg/dl, LDH 0–248 U/l, phosphate 0.81–1.53 mmol/l, creatinine 0.7–1.3
mg/dl, BUN 16.7–45.8 mg/dl).
He
was treated with hydration, sodium bicarbonate and 16.5 mg (0.2 mg/kg) of rasburicase for 3 days.
Uric acid levels dropped to 0.1 mg/dl on the
next day and remained low during the following days.
Renal function
improved and at discharge from hospital, plasma urate and creatinine were
within the normal range.
Dr.
Simoncini states, “At the moment, against fungi, there is no useful remedy other
than, in my opinion, sodium bicarbonate. The anti-fungins that are currently on
the market, in fact, do not have the ability to penetrate the masses (except
perhaps early administrations of azoli or of amfotercin B delivered
parenterally), since they are conceived to act only at a stratified level of
epithelial type. In order to achieve the most detrimental effect on the tumors,
the sodium bicarbonate must be put in direct contact with the damaged tissue.
It is also possible to put specific catheters (port-acath) in the arteries that
run to the different conventional endoscope methods.
Furthermore
there can be used clysters, drip infusions, irrigations and infiltrations at the
places where the tumor has grown.”
It is
stupid to assume that the more expensive a medical treatment is the better. Sodium
bicarbonate’s heavy hammer mallet proves this wrong. In the tough times ahead
of us people should not have to forgo needed health care. They would
not have to if the government and the medical industrial complex would come to
its senses. The present scrimping we see in medical care does not underscore
the need to provide health insurance with affordable premiums and co-payments
to bring down medical costs. It means it is simply time for a medical
revolution that brings the medical establishment back down to earth where we
find that simple medicines are safer and more effective than anything the
pharmaceutical companies can dream up.
I was
confronted for my bicarbonate and maple syrup essay with the following information:
Baking
soda (sodium bicarbonate) immediately reacts when it mixes with stomach acid.
NaHCO(3) + HCl ---> NaCl + H(2)0 + CO(2).
That
is: Sodium bicarbonate + stomach acid yields salt + water + carbon dioxide.
The
confronting clinician stated that neither the sodium cation nor sodium bicarbonate
is taken up significantly into a cancer cell nor into any kind of cell. The bottom
line according to this physician: Maple syrup with sodium bicarbonate delivers
sugar, salt, and carbon dioxide to the body. It is very simple to write off a good
thing like bicarbonate with scientific thinking that does not understand the complexity
of CO2 and its relationship to bicarbonate.
CO2 is
a gas at room temperature, and consists of a central carbon atom and two oxygen
atoms arranged in a linear fashion. When dissolved into water, the CO2 becomes
hydrated to form carbonic acid (H2CO3). This hydration step takes a few seconds,
though that may seem fast, many organisms from bacteria to humans use an enzyme
called carbonic anhydrase to greatly speed up the process.
Once
carbonic acid forms, it very quickly equilibrates with the other acids and bases
in solution. It can, for example, lose one or two protons (H+). The extent to which
this happens depends upon the pH and a variety of other factors. In seawater at
pH 8.1, most of it (87 percent) will lose one proton to form bicarbonate, a
small amount will lose two protons to form carbonate (13 percent), and a very
small amount will remain as H2CO3 (<>1 percent). All of these forms,
however, interconvert faster than the blink of an eye, so one cannot identify
one as carbonate and one as bicarbonate for more than a tiny fraction of a second.
All one can really say is that on average X percent is in the form of
bicarbonate, and Y percent in the form of carbonate.
A
bicarbonate anion is considered ''labile'' since at a proper concentration of hydrogen
ion (H+) it may be converted to carbonic acid (H2CO3) and thence to its volatile
form, carbon dioxide (CO2). Little did this clinician know that a lack
of arbon dioxide is itself a starting point for different disturbances in the
body. If a carbon dioxide deficiency continues for a long time then it can be
responsible for diseases, ageing and even cancer.
Sodium
(Na+) is the principal cation of the extracellular fluid and bicarbonate (HC03
†) is a normal constituent of body fluids and the normal plasma level ranges
from 24 to 31 mEq/liter.
Few
people know that a decreased level of carbon dioxide in the blood leads to decreased
oxygen supply to the cells in the body including in the brain, heart, kidneys etc.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) was found at the end of the 19th century by scientists Bohr
and Verigo to be responsible for the bond between oxygen and haemoglobin. If the
level of carbon dioxide in the blood is lower than normal, then this leads to difficulties
in releasing oxygen from haemoglobin. Hence the Verigo-Bohr law.
According
to the Verigo-Bohr effect, we can state that a CO2 deficit caused by deep
breathing leads to oxygen starvation in the cells of the body.
The bulk of the pancreas consists of cells whose job is to prod uce fluid that contains enzymes and sodium bicarbonate. The enzymes digest food; the sodium bicarbonate neutralizes hydrochloric acid from the stomach to protect the delicate intestinal lining from damage. Without the sodium bicarbonate in
pancreas fluid to neutralize stomach acid the intestine can be severely damaged by the highly caustic fluid that arrives from the stomach. Pancreatic enzyme insufficiency leads to bad digestion of
food and subsequent malnutrition, accompanied by signs of intestinal irritation and we can start to imagine how useful bicarbonate is for children with autism.
Sodium bicarbonate is an emergency medicine for cancer. If a person goes on a raw food diet they will drive up their pH reasonably fast. However, it will not drive it up as quickly nor as strongly as bicarbonate. One, of course, can use the bicarbonate in the beginning of such a diet changeWhen we consume water with sodium bicarbonate the bicarbonate ions enter the body and help to neutralize the production of acid from carbon dioxide and other sources in body cells. The ingested bicarbonate enhances the large amount of natural bicarbonates produced in the body each day by the kidneys, brain, pancreas, red blood cells and other tissues. Indeed, the kidneys alone produce about two hundred and fifty grams (about half a pound) of bicarbonate per day in an attempt to neutralize acid in the body. In addition, the brain produces each day about half a liter of cerebrospinal fluid which is rich in bicarbonate. The pancreas produces each day about three liters of pancreatic fluid which is rich in bicarbonate.
The ingestion of sodium bicarbonate as a buffering agent has been studied in various experimental designs (repeated short bout exercises or long lasting efforts) and with large dose ranges (100 to 500 mg per kg body weight, ingested or injected).
Plasma bicarbonate concentrations are shown to increase after oral ingestion. The most important effect of bicarbonate ingestion is the change in acid-base balance as well as blood pH and bicarbonate concentration in biological fluids.
Intravenous sodium bicarbonate therapy increases plasma bicarbonate, buffers excess hydrogen ion concentration, raises blood pH and reverses the clinical manifestations of acidosis. Sodium bicarbonate in water dissociates to provide sodium (Na+) and bicarbonate (HCO3¯) ions. Sodium (Na+) is the principal cation of the extracellular fluid and plays a large part in the therapy of fluid and electrolyte disturbances. Bicarbonate (HCO3¯) is a normal constituent of body fluids and the normal plasma level ranges from 24 to 31 mEq/liter.
Plasma concentration is regulated by the kidney through acidification of the urine when there is a deficit or by alkalinization of the urine when there is an excess. Bicarbonate anion is considered “labile” since at a proper concentration of hydrogen ion (H+) it may be converted to carbonic acid (H2CO3) and thence to its volatile form, carbon dioxide (CO2) excreted by the lung.
Normally a ratio of 1:20 (carbonic acid; bicarbonate) is present in the extracellular fluid. In a healthy adult with normal kidney function, practically all the glomerular filtered bicarbonate ion is reabsorbed; less than 1% is excreted in the urine.
Sodium bicarbonate can be used orally in doses of 1/2 tsp in
4 oz of water every two hours for pain relief as well as gastrointestinal upset, not to exceed 7 doses per day. That’s basically the receipt on every box of Arm and Hammers sold in every supermarket in the country.
Here are the exact instructions for oral use from the Arm and Hammer baking soda package. Directions:
Add 1/2 teaspoon to 1/2 glass (4 fl. oz.) of water every 2 hours, or as directed by physician. Dissolve completely in water. Accurately measure 1/2 teaspoon.
Do not take more than the following amounts in 24 hours:
--Seven 1/2 teaspoons.
--Three 1/2 teaspoons if you are over 60 years.
Do not use the maximum dosage for more than 2 weeks. Other Information:
Each 1/2 teaspoon contains 616 mg sodium.
There are many clinical applications for bicarbonate. "After suffering from a 4 hour long blinding headache for which nothing I took brought any relief, I tried the sodium bicarbonate, 1 tsp mixed in a glass of water. Within a few short minutes I could feel the headache abating and within the hour it was completely relieved! I tried this again when another headache occurred, and it worked just as miraculously." "This is the best pain reliever of all the ones I have been trying. I am amazed that something so simple would be so potent! I haven't exceeded 7 a day; but wish I could. It takes the pain away for about 2 hours. Nothing seems to work more then 2 hours at a time."
Dr. Parhatsathid Nabadalung, otherwise known as Ted on the Internet knows more than just about anyone how to use sodium bicarbonate. “The best time to take it is whenever your pH is most acidic, which is during the night. It is best used when pH is around 5.6-
5.9 (urinary). However if the pH is below that then somewhat stronger alkalinity is needed. In which case, I
turn to potassium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate and sodium bicarbonate mixture. So if you take these, then both your salivary and urinary pH optimum should aligned close to each other. The usual dosage for me is 1/2 teaspoon (of potassium bicarbonate), 1/2-1 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate, now if my pH is very acid, I add 1/8 teaspoon of potassium carbonate).”
"There are several formulations that you can consider if you want to alkalize. Each will have advantages and disadvantages.
http://www.earthclinic.com/Remedies/alkalizing_formulas.html
1. The Lemon Bicarbonate Formula
This simple formula will normalized many biological parameters, pH, ORP, phosphates, bicarbonates and antioxidants of vitamin C. A potential miracle water. One whole lemon freshly squeezed. Keep adding baking soda slowly bit by bit until the fizz stops. Then you will add water to one half glass. This is often taken twice a day. To be taken once in the morning and once before bedtime on an empty stomach.
Lemons are one of the gentlest ways to restore pH balance and alkalinity. Although lemon juice is
itself acidic, the ash of lemon juice is alkaline. When you consume lemon, it neutralizes acid and makes the body more alkaline.
Lemons are known to promote cleansing and rid the body of chemical and dietary toxins, boosting the
immune system and supporting good health. They are central to the Master Cleanse, which is often called the Lemon Cleanse.
Lemons are hardly a magic bullet, but they are a subtle, gradual way to improve pH balance.
Recommendation: Take the juice of half a lemon in a glass of warm or chilled water first thing in the
morning (at least ten minutes before any food) to restore pH balance and improve digestion. Replace the white, wine, or other vinegar in home- made salad dressings with fresh-squeezed lemon juice. Most vinegars are acid ash foods, with the exception of apple cider vinegar.
2. The Lime Bicarbonate Formula Same as above, but I use lime instead. The lime formula is the one I actually used in Bangkok and all measurements that normalized many biological parameters were based on lime formula. The reason is simple: lemon is non- existent in Bangkok. We use only lime. One whole lime freshly squeezed. Keep adding baking soda slowly bit by bit until the fizz stops. Then you will add water to one half glass. This is often taken either twice a day on an empty stomach, once in the morning and once before bedtime.
Note: Basically, lemon/lime juice idea is also good for people who fear some sodium retention issues. Since the lemon is already high on potassium, adding the sodium to neutralize the acid along the way will also create a sodium potassium balance.
Apple cider vinegar plus baking soda (2 tablespoons of ACV plus 1/4 teaspoon of
baking soda) pH is exactly 7.0 after 2-3 minutes. It
goes higher as you wait and settles down at about 7.3-7.5. Of course the solutions of pH may vary depending on the brand.
What you are missing on is most people take plain ACV for ac id reflux, which is
a worse option than taking baking soda added by some to neutralize pH. The remedy assumes you are using apple cider vinegar, not distilled vinegar."Neurological Considerations
Sodium bicarbonate is a therapeutic drugs for vertigo.
The neurological end on sodium bicarbonate is an interesting one. For example, if I accidentally take any aspartame products, now commonly found hidden in many gums and even children's supplements (such as Flintstones vitamins), the urinary pH will go immediately acid to urinary pH of 5.5 or below.
The reason why this occurs is an interesting one; the aspartame in presences of the body's enzymes breaks down into methanol and then formaldehyde which destroys theneurological s ystem. The neurological system controls the body's pH, much like a thermometer. When this happens, the body becomes acid quite quickly and then the neurological system burns itself up, and hence the immune system and the homeostatic mechanism which helps maintain the body's system.
Once the control center is in disarray, then you have all kinds of neurological problems. As a
simple antidote one can take baking soda to protect oneself from neurological damage. In fact the brain's pH is relatively acid due to most of the oxygen of the body, on a per weight basis, is consumed by the brain and hence it is relatively sensitive to damage.
The brain is
the organ that the sodium bicarbonate cannot easily reach, so
I had to turn my attention to sodium carbonate mixtures with baking soda in
equal amounts when I wanted to reach into the brain. When sodium carbonate encounters carbon dioxide, the sodium carbonate becomes sodium bicarbonate, having one additional layer buffer needed to reach and alkalize the brain.
As a proof, I had a person from Romanian with a 10 year old astenia, a condition of chronic fatigue combined with inability to sleep. He only sleeps about 2-3 hours a day so it can be mentally taxing. The man's about 30 years old and a college professor. Baking soda was tried, and on some days it works on other days it didn't work in helping in sleep. The reason why sodium carbonate was not added was it was difficult to obtain it. Later when he was able to obtain it, he slept for the first time in about 10 years and it worked consistently.
What happens is really simple. The older you get the worse the circulation in the brain. As a result the brain becomes acid. If the brain becomes acid, you are restless cannot sleep and pretty soon you just burn yourself up, or it may even lead to Parkinson's or Alzheimer disease.
The dose was simple: 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda plus 1/4 teaspoon of sodium carbonate in 1 glass of water taken twice a day, but most importantly taken 2 or 3 hours before sleep. It worked so well, and consistently and what is interestingly is that he didn't need sleeping pills. Of course he tried sleeping pills. It didn't work.
For most people its effect on "cooling down" of the brain and cause sleepiness will take only 30 minutes to notice this effect. In case any people doubt that this does
work, they actually tested on
causing dogs into a stroke and used the "carbicarb" - an equimolar mixture of baking soda and sodium carbonate to cause the brain to be in alkaline state, which protected against brain damage.
Apparently when you have a stroke, the carbon dioxide accumulates, the brain becomes a carbonic acid, and the brain is damaged. Only the carbicarb can it effectively neutralized it as it has sodium carbonate which is a stronger buffer, strong enough to reach this area to cause the brain to be in an alkaline state. Hence alkalinity is more difficult to achieve at the extremities, bone marrow and the brain primarily because sodium bicarbonate simply can't reach it as effectively as a sodium carbonate. When sodium carbonate encounters carbon dioxide it becomes sodium bicarbonate, so it reaches very inaccessible area enough to alkalize and neutralize cancer tumors.
Sodium bicarbonate is used to reduce the inflammation of oral mucosa resulting from chemotherapeutic agents or ionizing radiation.
Mucositis typically manifests as erythema or ulcerations.17
Bicarbonate has been shown to decrease dental plaque acidity induced by sucrose and its buffering capacity is important to prevent dental cavities. Other studies have shown that bicarbonate inhibits plaque formation on teeth and, in addition, increases calcium uptake by dental enamel. This effect of bicarbonate on teeth is so well recognized that sodium bicarbonate-containing tooth powder was patented in the USA in October 1985. Sodium bicarbonate has been suggested to increase the pH in the oral cavity, potentially neutralizing the harmful effects of bacterial metabolic acids. Sodium bicarbonate is increasingly used in dentifrice and its presence appears to be less abrasive to enamel and dentine than other commercial toothpaste.
To increase your oral pH to a normal 7.2 or greater drink 1teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate salt in 2 ounces of distilled water. It is that simple to neutralize the acids that cause cavities, mouth sores, Human Papilloma Virus (HPV16), bacteria, yeast and even Oral Cancer.
Bicarbonate is a major element in our body. Secreted by the stomach, it is necessary for digestion. When ingested, for example, with mineral water, it helps buffer lactic acid generated during exercise and also reduces the acidity of dietary components. Bicarbonate is present in all body fluids and organs and plays a major role in the acid-base balances in the human body. The first organ where food, beverages and water stay in
our body is the stomach. The mucus membrane of the human stomach has 30 million glands which produce gastric juice containing not only acids, but also bicarbonate. The flow of bicarbonate in the stomach amounts from 400 µmol per hour (24.4 mg/h) for a basal output to 1,200 µmol per hour (73.2 mg/h) for a maximal output. Thus at least half a gram of bicarbonate is secreted daily in our stomach.
So it is perfectly safe to use bicarbonate in the mouth and to swollow it after using it to clean the gum tissues and teeth, or to take it orally. The same goes for the iodine if you use the iodine in its atomic form. But we need not stop at iodine or sodium bicarbonate. We can employ magnesium chloride, preferably in a natural pure form and this truly is a our secret weapon offering not only healing and strenghtening of the tissues but magnesium also strenghtens the teeth.
Sodium Bicarbonate Basics
Sodium bicarbonate is the chemical compound with the formula NaHCO3. It has long been known and is widely used. The salt has many other names including sodium hydrogen carbonate and "sodium bicarb," as well as baking soda, bread soda, or bicarbonate of soda. It is poorly soluble in water. This white solid is crystal line but often is available as a fine powder. It has a slight alkaline taste resembling that of sodium carbonate. It is
a component of the mineral natron and is found dissolved in many mineral springs. It is also produced artificially.
Production NaHCO3 is mainly prepared by the Solvay process, which entails the reaction of sodium chloride, ammonia, and carbon dioxide in water. It
is produced on the scale of 100,000 ton/yea. NaHCO3 also arises when sodium carbonate is treated with carbon dioxide. Commercial quantities of baking soda are produced by this method: soda ash, mined in the form of the ore trona, is dissolved in water and treated with carbon dioxide.
Baking soda has over a hundreds of uses. As an absorbent for moisture and odors; an open box can be left in a refrigerator for this purpose. However, baking soda does not actually absorb odors well when used in a refrigerator in toothpaste, baking soda helps to gently remove stains, whiten teeth, it freshens the breath, dissolve plaque, and even acts as a fire-suppression agent in
some dry powder fire extinguishers.
It is a minor component of Purple-K dry fire suppression agent. It is commonly used to increase the pH and total alkalinity of the water for pools and spas. Sodium bicarbonate can be added as a simple solution for restoring the pH balance of water that has a high level of chlorine.
A paste from baking soda can be very effective when used in cleaning and
scrubbing. It removes coffee stains, marker, and crayon. It
can be used to clean out grease. A solution in warm water will remove the tarnish from silver when the silver is in contact with a piece of aluminum foil
With water, it cleans the impurities on
contact lenses. Rinse completely before wearing contacts to avoid stinging of the salt in baking soda. Baking soda and boiling water unclogs drains. One cup of baking soda maintains a healthy septic tank. It controls pH and keeps a good environment for the bacteria. If made into a paste salve, it relieves burning from bug stings, poison ivy, nettles, and sunburn. Baking soda helps remove body odors as it absorbs chemicals, apply using a powder puff. It kills fleas and drives away ants. If
it is applied to a pet's fur, it must be washed/rinsed off to prevent skin problems. A small amount can be added to a beef stew to make tough meat tenderize faster. It is used as a fabric softener in laundry.
It is strong enough to neutralize battery acid. It is used to test garden soil for acidity. It can be used to
kill crab grass in Florida St. Augustine grass. Must be used repeatedly to control but is effective. Dampen area then sprinkle lightly, too much may harm desired grass temporarily. Sodium bicarbonate has been used as an endurance enhancer. It is used as an antacid to treat acid indigestion and heartburn. Sodium bicarbonate is used to give the pretzels their dark brown color. Formerly, it was used as a source of carbon dioxide for soda water.
Water stains on wooden floors can be removed with a sponge dampened in a solution of baking soda dissolved in water. Sprinkle some baking soda into your vacuum bag to help reduce musty/pet smells being spread throughout your house when vacuuming. Sprinkle baking soda on rugs and carpets before vacuuming as a deodorizing treatment. Most carpet powders you buy are baking soda based! Just a brief note on this - not recommended for areas that are very humid as the baking soda may stay in the carpet.
After an increase in local pH was noted sodium bicarbonate was used to treat vaginitis to provide symptomatic relief for women with this condition. Fungal vaginitis, one of the common female vaginal diseases with a high morbidity rate, is difficult to effect a radical cure. In the U.S. more than 75% women suffer from fungal vaginitis at least once in their life, and about 5% of adult women suffer from repeated fungal vaginal infection. It is difficult to treat.1 The main clinical symptoms of these vaginal diseases include vulval pruritus, vaginal pain,
leukorrhagia, dyspareunia, and urodynia. Therefore, this disease is harmful to the health of women as well as their quality of life.
At the moment, against fungi there is no useful remedy other than, in my opinion, sodium bicarbonate
PH
Sodium bicarbonate is one of the oldest workhorse medicines. So solid is bicarbonate’s position in orthodox oncology it would probably be considered malpractice to apply most forms of chemotherapy without it. It is commonly used prior to, during, and after application of chemotherapy.3 Some studies actually have already shown how manipulation of tumor pH with sodium bicarbonate enhances chemotherapy4 again pointing to the possibility that bicarbonate is the main chemo agent saving people from their cancers.

within normal values in intensive care units.
Physiologically the bicarbonate transport system serves to:
1-regulate cellular pH,
2-regulate whole body pH,
3-regulate cell volume and fluid secretion,
4-dispose of the body’s major metabolic waste product (CO2/HCO3-).
Though we have known that oral intake of sodium bicarbonate will have the
‘Simoncini” effect on oral, esophagus and stomach cancer no one has focused on the systemic effect of bicarbonate taken orally. Every cancer patient and every health
care practitioner should know that oral intake of sodium bicarbonate offers a strong
shift of body pH into the alkaline. So strong is the effect that athletes can notice the difference in their breathing as more oxygen (and thus CO2) is carried throughout the
system as more acids are neutralized.4 The difference can be stunning for those whose respiration is labored under intense exercise loading.5 This tells us to take
very seriously the oral use of bicarbonate for cancer treatment no matter what other
treatment is used.
There are so many things to know about bicarbonate. A primary characteristic of it is its high pH. Bicarbonate has two roles in intestinal function: neutralization of stomach acid entering the intestine and water reabsorption. Neutralization of acid by bicarbonate is primarily accomplished by the high bicarbonate concentration (125 mM) present in pancreatic fluid secreted into the intestine. In another chapter we will penetrate the pH story and establish it as a main barometer in health and medical treatment. One can push ones body pH up dramatically with bicarbonate.
Raising pH increases the immune system's ability to
kill bacteria. This was the conclusion of a study conducted at The Royal Free Hospital and School of Medicine in London. This is a tip-off to an entirely new way allopathic medicine can look at disease and its treatment. By paying attention to basic physiology (pH) and effecting shifts from acid to alkaline we go a long way in reversing cancer and other chronic diseases.
All cancer sufferers, and in fact every chronic disease patient, should hold clearly in mind that pH is the regulatory authority that controls most cellular processes. The pH balance of the human bloodstream is recognized by medical physiology texts as
one of
the most important biochemical balances. Our body pH is very important because pH controls the speed of our body's biochemical reactions. It does this by controlling the speed of enzyme activity as well as the speed that electricity moves through our body - the higher (more alkaline) the pH of a substance or solution, the more electrical resistance that substance or solution holds.
Body pH level changes are intense in the profundity of their biological effects. Even genes directly experience external pH. Important changes in pH may not only affect the shape of an enzyme but it may also change the shape or charge properties of the substrate.6 When pH is
too acidic either the substrate cannot bind to the active site or it cannot undergo catalysis. Increased oxidative stress, which correlates almost exponentially with pH changes into the acidic, is especially dangerous to the mitochondria, which suffer the greatest under oxidative duress. Epigenetics, which may now have begun eclipsing traditional genetics, commonly describes how factors such as diet and smoking, rather than inheritance influence how genes behave.
For practitioners of the healing arts bicarbonate is as
useful and friendly as water. The two together make for powerful medicine. The bicarbonate story is actually fascinating, especially when you dig deeper. For instance we
find out that intravenous vitamin C therapy, which is claimed to be an effective cancer treatment, is often given with sodium bicarbonate. “Given the amount of fluid, which is used as a vehicle for the ascorbate, sodium hydroxide/sodium bicarbonate is used to adjust the
pH.”1
Sodium bicarbonate administration increases urinary pH.
Urinary pH between 6.5 and 7.0 can keep uric acid ionized and prevent its crystallization in renal tubules
It is commonly used to increase the pH and total alkalinity of the water for pools and spas. Sodium bicarbonate can be added as a simple solution for
restoring the pH balance of water that has a high level of chlorine. It is sometimes used in septic tanks to control pH and bacteria.
Sodium bicarbonate tend to maintain a pH of 8.1 (7
is neutral) even when acids, which lower pH, or bases, which raise pH, are added to the solution. Its ability to tabletize makes it a good effervescent ingredient in antacids and denture cleaning products. Sodium bicarbonate is
also found in some anti-plaque mouthwash products and toothpaste.
pH of the blood is the most important factor to determine the state of the microorganisms in the blood.
Research suggests that administering sodium bicarbonate in intravenous (IV) form can significantly improve pH and Pco2 in children with life-threatening asthma. Respiratory distress and level of consciousness both
improved after the administration of sodium bicarbonate3
If the body’s cellular metabolism and pH is balanced it is susceptible to little illness or disease.
Regulation of cardiomyocyte pH is critical to: 1. cardiac contractile function under normal conditions, 2. myocyte survival following ischemia and 3. hypertrophic heart growth. In
cardiac ischemia and hypertrophy, the alkalinizing role of the myocardial Na+/H+ exchanger, NHE1, has a central role. Here we will investigate in
a less-studied direction: control of myocyte pH by Cl-/HCO3- exchangers (AE). Cl-
/HCO3- exchangers can contribute to either alkalinization or acidification, depending on the directions of the transmembrane Cl- and HCO3- concentration gradients.
Since control of cytosolic pH is critical to survival following ischemia, we propose to
study the role of Cl-/HCO3- exchanger isoforms during recovery from ischemic acidosis. In studies of cardiac hypertrophy we found that the carbonic anhydrase
inhibitor, ethoxyzolamide, prevents and reverts cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. We will explore the role of the hypertrophic transport metabolon in the progression of cardiac
hypertrophy in animal models and in human heart biopsies.
Medical insights such as these are rare in medicine. It makes so much medical sense to assume the pancreas, the organ most responsible for pH control,1 would be the one of the first organs affected when general pH shifts to the acidic. “Monitoring of blood-sugar levels, insulin production, acid-base balance, and pancreatic bicarbonate and enzyme production before and after test exposures to potentially allergic substances reveals that the pancreas is the first organ to develop inhibited function from varied stresses,2 writes Dr. William Philpott and Dr. Dwight K. Kalita in their book Brain Allergies.
Pancreatic secretion of bicarbonate decreases in severe malnutrition and it is known that most obese people are malnourished. The famous junk food diet that leads to diabetes is a diet guaranteed to create malnutrition and thus decreased bicarbonate flow. Also the more acid the foods the more bicarbonate is needed. Even greater deficiencies build up from escalating acid conditions, which demand great and great buffers to balance pH.
Without sufficient bicarbonate buffer, the effect of disease is far reaching as the body becomes acid. The brain glial cells that produces sodium nitrite (a chemical messenger Nitric Oxide which has broad body's physiology) necessary to control blood pressure and immune system suddenly degrades in presence of acidic pH and it is converted into nitric oxide gas, which more or less in a blood medium with water becomes nitric acid.
What's more interesting is
the chemical messenger signals nitric oxide can't be transported to
other parts of the body, especially far distance necessary to kill pathogens. Since nitric oxide is destroyed before reaching that area. This is why diabetics get their legs cut off whenever the leg has an infection.
There simply isn't enough alkalinity to transport the sodium nitrite to the extremities. Case in point, this idea can be demonstrated, take sodium nitrite and put in weak acid solution of any kind, whether they are citric acid, vinegar, or even ascorbic acid. The sodium nitrite will immediately degrade and convert itself to nitric oxide. However in a pH neutral or slightly alkaline solution, the sodium nitrite is stable. This means the sodium nitrite, if the blood has sufficient bicarbonates, can reach their target organs as intended. It is like if your body is acid, the telephone lines are cut off. In this case the chemical messenger is destroyed in an acid blood so lines of communication indeed are cut off.
This diagram shows the diffusion directions for H+, CO2, and O2 between the blood and the muscle cells during exercise. The resulting concentration changes affect the buffer equilibria, shown in the upper right-hand corner of the diagram (yellow). If the amounts of H+ and CO2 exceed the capacity of hemoglobin, they affect the carbonic acid equilibrium, as predicted by Le Châtelier's Principle or the quantitative treatment in terms of equilibrium constants. As a result, the pH of the blood is lowered, causing acidosis. The lungs and kidneys respond to
pH changes by removing CO2, HCO3-, and H+ from the blood.
Otto Warburg established that lactic acid production is a fundamental property of cancer. It is, to a great degree, the lactic acid which triggers the defensive reactions of the organism, leading to tissue wasting from excessive glucocorticoid hormone,” says Dr. Peat. Tumors do tend to be efficient at exporting lactate which drops the pH in the milieu of the tumor. The breakdown of glucose or glycogen produces lactate and hydrogen ions - for each lactate molecule, one hydrogen ion is formed.
Studies have already shown how manipulation of tumor pH with sodium bicarbonate enhances some forms of chemotherapy.1
The extracellular (interstitial) pH (pHe) of solid tumours is significantly more acidic compared to normal tissues. 2
Again, our body pH is
very important because pH controls the speed of our body's biochemical reactions. It does this by controlling the speed of enzyme activity as well as the speed that electricity moves through our body. The higher (more alkaline) the pH of a substance or solution, the more electrical resistance that substance or solution holds. Therefore, electricity travels slower with higher pH. If we say something has an acid pH, we are saying it is hot and fast. Alkaline pH on the other hand, bio-chemically speaking, is slow and cool.
The closer the pH is to 7.35 - 7.45, the higher our level of health and well being and our ability to resist states of disease.
Improper digestion creates the perfect environment for bacteria and fungus to thrive. Where pathogens accumulate inflammation follows. A reduction in body acid is possible through proper diet and supplements. Acidic blood pH levels, which cause toxic acid wastes (acidosis), is a mostly unknown (outside of the emergency room) but is a dangerously destructive circumstance because it leads to cancer and other chronic diseases.
When you have an acidic pH, your body is being silently burned down day by day. However, when you maintain an alkaline pH on a daily basis, your body can rebuild, repair, rejuvenate and remain young. Yes long term aging is very much related to pH permanently shifted toward the acidic.
When talking seriously about pH it is very important to understand that we are not talking about stomach acid, saliva pH, or the pH of your urine. We are talking about the pH of the body's fluids, tissues and blood which have a real impact on disease processes. Our body's pH level regulates breathing, circulation, digestion, elimination, hormone production and immune defense
The first major line of defense against sickness, disease and aging is the pH of your blood and we can
push this quite quickly into higher pH levels with sodium bicarbonate. This is why we can use bicarbonate in many clinical situations, even with the flu for it will push the immune system through higher alkalinity into overdrive. The body prefers a slightly alkaline pH of approximately 7.4 in the blood and cells and if it drops below this for any length of time, it will suffer from the onset of degenerative disease or even acute infectious diseases like the flu.
As our bodies becomes acidic, our body's oxygen level begins to drop, leaving us tired and fatigued and this is what allows fungus, mold, parasites, bad bacteria, and viral infections to flourish and gain a hold throughout the body. When we become acidic we also start losing calcium out of
the blood, the bones, as well as magnesium. Minerals are harnessed in a mandatory need to keep the blood pH slightly alkaline but this becomes a losing game for most people are also deficient in magnesium and other basic buffering minerals.
Dr. Otto Warburg, two times Nobel Prize winner, stated in his book “The Metabolism of Tumors” that the primary cause of cancer was the replacement of oxygen in the respiratory cell chemistry by
the fermentation of sugar. The growth of cancer cells is initiated by a
fermentation process, which can be
triggered only in the absence of oxygen at the cell level. What Warburg was describing was a classic picture of acidic conditions. Just like overworked muscle cells manufacture lactic acid by-products as waste, cancerous cells spill lactic acid and other acidic compounds causing acid pH.
Patients receiving sodium bicarbonate achieved urine pHs
of 6.5 as opposed to 5.6 with those receiving sodium chloride. This alkalinization is theorized to have a protective effect against
the formation of free-radicals that may cause nephropathy.3
Dr. Michael Metro
The pH scale goes from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Below 7 is acid and above 7 is alkaline. The blood, lymph and cerebral spinal fluid in the human body are designed to be slightly alkaline at a pH of 7.4.
At a pH slightly above 7.4 cancer cells become inactive and at pH 8.5 cancer cells will die while healthy cells will live. This has given rise to a variety of treatments based on increasing the alkalinity of the tissues such as vegetarian diet, raw foods, the drinking of fresh fruit and vegetable juices, and dietary supplementation with alkaline minerals such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, cesium and rubidium. But nothing can compare to
the relatively instant alkalinizing power of sodium bicarbonate for safe and effective treatment of cancer.
Sodium bicarbonate is an emergency medicine for cancer. If a person goes on a raw food diet they will drive up their pH reasonably fast. However, it will not drive it up as quickly nor as strongly as bicarbonate. One, of course, can use the bicarbonate in the beginning of such a diet change.
Cancer seems to grow slowly in a high acid environment (the acids cause it to partially destroy itself) and may actually grow more quickly as your body becomes more alkaline prior to reaching the healthy pH. Which means reaching slightly above
7.4 where the cancer becomes dormant. Therefore, it is important to get the pH above
7.4 quickly. Once one has achieved a pH above 7.4, it is useful to monitor saliva pH
regularly to ensure that the body remains sufficiently alkaline.
Oxygen cannot attach to blood cells if the pH of the blood is too acidic. You can breath pure oxygen but if the blood pH is acidic, and then the oxygen will not be able to be picked up by the blood cells. It is chemically impossible. The blood must be normal and normal blood has a pH of around 7.4 pH. Any vestigial traces of oxygen that the acid-drenched blood cells manage to pick up are stripped off early. They are stripped off by the oxygen-starved cells along the way and never reach the deeper parts of the body where oxygen is most needed. Because the pH is acidic, carbon dioxide also is
not transported efficiently and so
builds up within the tissues leading both to cell death.
How acid something is determined by measuring its pH. The pH of anything is set on a scale of from 1 to 14. pH 1 is the most acid, like the acid in your car battery. pH 14 is the most basic, like the lye you spray in an oven to clean it. Water is supposed to be neutral at a pH of 7.0. The pH of the blood has to remain exactly 7.40, all the time...exactly! If the blood's pH rises or falls one tenth of a pH unit you are in intensive care in the hospital where the pH of your blood is monitored very carefully. If it moves two tenths either way it is lethal.
The acid/base balance or lack thereof in this internal milieu, is easy to evaluate. Simply, you measure how acid your saliva and urine are at home. This will be explained thoroughly under Urine and Saliva Testing. And as
stated this is an exceedingly useful tool in following your own health. When a person’s body becomes alkaline the red blood cells can then take on more oxygen and nutrients to the body and remove unwanted waste. Cancer patients have a saliva pH of 4.5 to 5.5. Healthy people have a pH of 7.0 to 7.5. Test saliva first thing in the morning before any thing is placed in the mouth.
Intensive care medicine is the only place in regular medicine that pH is taken seriously. Arterial blood pH is measured frequently in intensive care because here the pH of the blood itself does change. Acidosis is a very serious condition that demands an immediate response in intensive care land the response of choice of course is sodium bicarbonate. This book is about chronic acidosis as well as treating cancerous tumors through a generalized manipulation of full body pH from acid to
alkaline.
In the early stages of acidic pH in the body’s tissues, the warning symptoms are mild. These include such things as skin eruption, headaches, allergies, colds, flu and sinus problems. These symptoms are frequently treated (manipulated) with antibiotic drugs and suppressive medications. The longer and the deeper we become acidic the more our illness takes hold. So it is best to fight acidic conditions early on and in every presenting clinical situation. Certainly a highly toxic drug like anti viral Tamiflu won’t do a fraction of the job sodium bicarbonate will do especially if bicarbonate is
combined with magnesium chloride, iodine as
well as high levels of vitamin C.
In late stages of acidic pH we need to turn to the most alkaline minerals to increase our throw weight of alkalinity into cancer cells. Mass spectrographic and isotope studies have shown that potassium, rubidium, and especially cesium are most efficiently taken up by cancer cells. This uptake was enhanced by Vitamins A and C as well as salts of zinc and selenium. The quantity of cesium taken up was sufficient to raise the cell to the 8 pH range. 8
8 "A mass spectrographic analysis of cancer cells showed that the cell membrane readily attached cesium, rubidium and potassium, and transmitted these elements with their associated molecules into the cancer cell. In contrast cancer membranes did not transmit sodium, magnesium, and calcium into the cell: the amount of calcium within a cancer cell is only about 1% of that for normal cells. Potassium transports glucose into the cell. Calcium and magnesium transport oxygen into the
cell. As a consequence of the above, oxygen cannot enter cancer cells so the glucose which is normally burned to carbon dioxide and water undergoes fermentation to form lactic acid within the cell. This anaerobic condition was pointed out by Warburg, as early as
1924. Potassium, and especially rubidium and cesium are the most basic of the elements. When they are taken up by the cancer cells they will thus raise the pH of the cells. Since they are very strong bases as compared to the weak lactic acid it is possible that the pH will be raised to values in the 8.5 to 9 range. In this range the life of the cancer cell is short, being a matter of days at the most. The dead cancer cells are then absorbed by the body fluids and eventually eliminated from the system." - Dr. Brewer http://www.mwt.net/~drbrewer/highpH.htm
Intravenous sodium bicarbonate therapy increases plasma bicarbonate, buffers excess hydrogen ion concentration, raises blood pH and reverses the clinical manifestations of acidosis.
Dr. Parhatsathid Nabadalung, otherwise known as Ted on the Internet knows more than just about anyone how to use sodium bicarbonate. “The best time to take it is whenever your pH is most acidic, which is during the night. It is best used when pH is around 5.6-5.9 (urinary). However if the pH is below that then somewhat stronger alkalinity is needed. In which case, I
turn to potassium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate and sodium bicarbonate mixture. So if you take these, then both your salivary and urinary pH optimum should aligned close to each other. The usual dosage for me is 1/2 teaspoon (of potassium bicarbonate), 1/2-1 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate, now if my pH is very acid, I add 1/8 teaspoon of potassium carbonate).”
There is a man that cured a reoccurring bladder infection. He has spent literally thousands of dollars on doctors, who have tested him during this year and have not been able to
find out what is
wrong with him. He has had CT scans, MRI's, and other tests, in addition to being on antibiotics month after month with little or no result. Then he also went to a very expensive Naturopath and again got no results. Then he met a woman who had another serious condition and had cured it with several weeks of a very careful and gradually diminishing level of Baking Soda, and within a month taking this (and only this ) very carefully planned dosage of Baking Soda. This dosage needs to be strictly adhered too, because too much baking soda can cause alkalosis, a blood ph that is too high. The dosage he took was 1 teaspoon in a glassful of water and he followed that glass of water with another glass of water. He did this 3 times a day the first week, 2 times a day the second week and once a day the third week. He now is doing it once or twice a month to maintain the benefits. It has been two months since his last bladder infection.
My son, by turning me onto adjusting the body’s pH from acidic to alkaline as a possible way to create some hope, was a good hit. Arm and Hammer to the rescue! I later found out that Arm and Hammer is shunned by some baking soda users because of the idea that it has aluminum in it. Well, at the time, I could have cared less. As I later found out from research and a visit to a
natural food store, aluminum is not in baking soda, it is in
baking powder. The employee specializing in the vitamin and mineral department said that Bob’s Red Mill Baking Powder is aluminum free and so is, as far as she knew, are all baking soda brands.
I am sure many people are interested to know what proportions of baking soda I used with the molasses. I started out with 1 teaspoon of baking soda with 1 teaspoon of Black Strap molasses and one cup of water. Not warmed or heated water. Just room temperature. Next day – same thing. Third day – same thing. Fourth day – same thing. I am feeling fine and decide to up the dose.
On the fifth day I started taking the solution twice a day. I also started taking better notes and finally got some pH paper and sticks so I could measure my pH. My goal was to get to 8.0 to 8.5 pH and hold it for 4 to five days. I read that cancer cells become dormant at pH 7.0 and 7.5 and kills them dead at 8.0 and 8.5. That was my goal. To kill them dead and hoping that bone cancer was a willing victim.
My pH measured 7.0 on the fourth day when I did a saliva pH test, and 7.5 when
I did a urine pH test.
Lemons are one of the gentlest ways to restore pH balance and alkalinity. Although lemon juice is
itself acidic, the ash of lemon juice is alkaline. When you consume lemon, it neutralizes acid and makes the body more alkaline.
Apple cider vinegar is an exception: unlike almost every other vinegar, it has an alkaline ash and improves pH by making the body less acidic.
Apple cider vinegar is more powerful than lemon juice, but still a gradual way to reestablish healthy pH in the body. The Thieves essential oil blend (containing clove, cinnamon, lemon, eucalyptus, rosemary) give the vinegar an extra immune-boosting kick. It also improves the flavor. Some people find that if
they take the apple cider vinegar and wait too long before eating food, they feel nauseous. It is recommended, but not absolutely necessary, to wait ten minutes before eating.
Apple cider vinegar plus baking soda (2 tablespoons of ACV plus 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda) pH is exactly 7.0 after 2-3 minutes. It
goes higher as you wait and settles down at about 7.3-7.5. Of course the solutions of pH may vary depending on the brand.
Once the control center is in disorder, then you have all kinds of neurological problems. As a simple antidote one can take baking soda to protect oneself from neurological damage. In fact the brain's pH is relatively acid due to most of the oxygen of the body, on a per weight basis, is consumed by the brain and hence it is relatively sensitive to damage.
Check the pH of your saliva with pHydrion paper. If your saliva pH is below 7.2 then you are at risk for cavities, mouth sores, bacteria, yeast and even Oral Cancer.18
To increase your oral pH to a normal 7.2 or greater drink 1teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate salt in 2 ounces of purify water. It is that simple to neutralize the acids that cause cavities, mouth sores, Human Papilloma Virus (HPV16), bacteria, yeast and even Oral Cancer.
It is a minor component of Purple-K dry fire suppression agent. It is commonly used to increase the pH and total alkalinity of the water for pools and spas. Sodium bicarbonate can be added as a simple solution for restoring the pH balance of water that has a high level of chlorine.
After an increase in local pH was noted sodium bicarbonate was used to treat vaginitis to provide symptomatic relief for women with this condition. Fungal vaginitis, one of the common female vaginal diseases with a high morbidity rate, is difficult to effect a radical cure. In the U.S. more than 75% women suffer from fungal vaginitis at least once in their life, and about 5% of adult women suffer from repeated fungal vaginal infection. It is difficult to treat.1 The main clinical symptoms of these vaginal diseases include vulval pruritus, vaginal pain,
leukorrhagia, dyspareunia, and urodynia. Therefore, this disease is harmful to the health of women as well as their quality of life.
The aim of all bicarbonate therapy is to produce a substantial correction of the low total CO2 content and blood pH, but the risks of over dosage and alkalosis should be avoided. In general, dose selection for pregnant women, young infants and elderly patients should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or
cardiac function and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy
Blood is under pH control. Ideally it has a pH in a narrow range around 7.3, which is slightly alkaline. A pH around 7.3 is the perfect environment where the normal pathogens in the blood live in harmony with the body. However, when blood pH is disturbed and is shifted out of that narrow range then native microorganisms, in order to survive, would change to a form which can survive. It is these new forms that become aggressive, parasitic and pathogenic agents within the blood. Dr. Guenther Enderlein, a German bacteriologist, contended there are thousands of forms and many of these are able to overcome the body's defense mechanisms, causing multiple disease situations. When our body's blood pH changes away from the ideal, it can become an environment for opportunistic microorganisms to grow and flourish, what could be simpler to understand.
Cause
One also has to pay attention to the causes of cancer. One major cause is the high levels of mercury that come from dental amalgam and other sources like yearly flu vaccination shots, which mostly have mercury in
them
It is certain that sodium bicarbonate is a cancer treatment because it is used by oncologists and other personnel associated with the treatment of cancer victims.
"I am also not aware of any evidence whatever
that cancer is caused by a fungus, which is the
fundamental tenet underpinning Simoncini's assertions."
I think you got it slightly wrong, he indicates cancer
is a fungus not that it is caused
by it. What causes cancer is diverse, many things
have been scientifically shown to cause cancer
or cause the conditions in which late state infections
(cancer) invite yeast and fungi to form colonies that
attach to sickly human cells...which are themselves
one of the causes of cancer...as are heavy metals, pesticides,
fluoride and on and on.....then of course we have the nutritional
deficiencies that set the entire stage. Don't you know anything
about cancer? We even have people who define
people as multidimensional human beings meaning that sometimes
or even oftenemotional trauma and shock or never ending stress
and conflict disrupt the immune system severely weakening its ability
to clear cancers from the system.
ggggg
The source of the problem is usually an acid condition in the body caused by food or chemical allergies
There are many causes of
diabetes. Almost as many as
all the heavy metals, toxic chemicals and radiation contamination that will affect, weaken and destroy pancreatic tissues.
When you look at
the fact that over-acidification of the body is
the single underlying most fundamental cause of all disease we can begin to understand the importance of bicarbonate physiology.
Where does Nitric Oxide come in?
Well nitric oxide causes the blood vessels to relax, thus reducing blood pressure and increase blood circulation. With increase blood circulation you get better immunity.
One also has to pay attention to the causes of cancer. One major cause is the high levels of mercury that come from dental amalgam and other sources like yearly flu vaccination shots, which mostly have mercury in
them.

. Our body pH is
very important because pH controls the speed of our body's biochemical reactions
Viruses and bacteria that cause bronchitis and colds thrive in an acidic environment.
A Russian doctor named Konstantin Buteyko is
most responsible for drawing attention to the importance of carbon dioxide for body metabolism and how the lack of it can cause chronic diseases;
Thus we can begin to see that it is the lack of carbon dioxide in the body which is a cause of many disturbances in the metabolism of cells and tissues, which, in turn, can lead to disease
Acids burn out our cells and causes accelerated aging.
. In the presence of magnesium and bicarbonate ions, less acid is produced by carbonic anhydrase enzyme. This occurs because magnesium bicarbonate increases the concentrations of bicarbonate ions inside body cells.
Interestingly, Dr. Simoncini hits the cancer or fungal colonies with sugar when he hits them with the bicarbonate. He does this partially because late stage cancer sufferers are dying because of glucose starvation and deprivation. He also does this because the fungi are also very hungry for that sugar. So hungry that they open their cell membranes wide to receive the sugar and in flows the increased alkalinity with the accompanying blast of oxygen because of the higher levels of bicarbonate in the blood.
“With the exception of the cancers caused by cut/cured/ fermented tobacco leaf, the cause of cancer is generally stated as being unknown. That statement is made invalid by the published research data collected and presented here. It documents that fungi and their mycotoxins cause virtually every type of human cancer in either animals or humans or in both,” reports Dr. A.V. Costantini from the W.H.O.1
However, it is by definition a mycotoxin and mycotoxins do cause cancer.” (Costantini, et al. 1998).
Now we have Doug A. Kaufman and Dr. David Holland, who are in terms of diabetes, saying what Dr. Simoncini and Dr. Costantini are saying about cancer. This
is that the fungal attack is a cause, NOT just a secondary infection. It is a primary infection. As we have already noted allopathic doctors do a lousy job of diagnosing fungal infections. So they blame bacteria and viruses, and treat with antibiotics, which only makes matters worse because antibiotics promote fungal growth.
Kaufman and Holland make a significant link between diabetes and cancer. Is
it a coincidence that diabetics have a 4 times greater rate of liver cancer? And diabetics have double the risk of pancreatic cancer compared to non-diabetics, according to recent studies presented to the Third Annual Frontiers in Cancer Prevention Research Meeting in
Seattle in 2004. Kaufman and Holland, in
their book Infectious Diabetes,present a compelling account of how fungi may be the underlying cause of diabetes, its complications, and many other autoimmune disorders.
Fungal overgrowth occurs because its natural competitors have been removed. Overgrowth happens with antibiotic usage.
Pathogenic albicans (chronic candidiasis, more commonly known as candida or thrush) is generally caused by drug use - particularly antibiotic drug use,
poor diet, lowered immunity, and metals like mercury from dental amalgams. Mercury will promote the growth of Candida, as it adsorbs the mercury.
A person with a mouthful of mercury laden dental amalgam can easily absorb
200 micrograms in
a week. Once mercury has attacked cells they become impaired in their ability to detoxify and nurture themselves because mercury suffocates the intracellular respiratory mechanism.10 The cells thus become toxic, some die but the
majority simply adopt, change their physiology and live in a state of chronic
malnutrition. The presence of mercury in the tissues represses the immune system, which itself has to make a conscious adaptation to what could easily become a lethal
heavy metal environment. As mercury levels increase the immune system does something very interesting for the sake of survival. It begins to allow fungi and
bacteria, which can bind large amounts of toxic metals, to grow. It does this to alleviate the respiration of the cells so they can breathe again but the cost is very high
for the system has to provide nutrition for the microorganisms and has to deal with
their metabolic products ("toxins").
Scientists have directly implicated yeast and fungal toxins, called mycotoxins, in the cause of Crohn’s disease. Former World Health Organization expert Dr. A.V. Costantini
has found that people with Crohn’s often have aflatoxin, a mycotoxin made by Aspergillus molds, in their blood.
Heavy Metal Contamination promotes the growth of fungus infections and are an essential etiology in their cause.
The various foods, which are documented to cause prostate cancer, share little in common except that they are all high on
the list of fungal mycotoxin contaminated foods. The carcinogenic mycotoxin most often encountered is aflatoxin. Aflatoxin, a recognized potent carcinogenic mycotoxin causes normal human breast cells to become cancerous. Tumor tissues have higher aflatoxin-adduct levels than do normal tissue from the same individual. The presence of
carcinogenic aflatoxin within the cancer tissue and this implicates aflatoxin as a cause of breast cancer. 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.
. Uric Acid was discovered to cause diabetes in 1949, by Mervyn Griffiths.19 Alloxan, is now used to make laboratory rats diabetic for research purposes. Urea and uric acid are always found together in the urine, along with a small amount of alloxan. Alloxan appears to be the intermediate stage in the conversion of uric acid into urea by oxidation.20
Increased uric acid is caused by yeast infections, by fungus, by microorganisms using us for a host. Uric acid produces alloxan and both cause diabetes.
Interestingly it
was found that uric acid or alloxan alone in small amounts did not cause a diabetic condition if the glutathione levels remained at normal levels in the lab animals tested.21 Shortly after this it was discovered that Sacchromyces yeast produces uric acid (Svlhia,1963) and
in 1976 after two children dying from diabetes were found to be infected with Cryptococcus fungi, further studies were done by injecting Cryptococcus directly into the pancreatic arteries. Necrosis (cell death) in the Islets of
Langerhans resulted. This is where insulin producing cells originate. Cryptococcus fungi also produce alloxan, a uric acid byproduct. Further studies through the years confirmed alloxan’s damage to the pancreatic islet cells (Pogo,
1980) and in 1990 Coleman et. al fed mice a diet of 10% brewers yeast, and diabetes resulted. In the 1980s it was found that other alloxan-like metabolites of uric acid
were diabetogenic, some even more so than alloxan alone.22
Fungi are heterotrophs, meaning that they secrete digestive enzymes and absorb the resulting soluble nutrients from whatever they are growing on. For this reason they are great decomposers in the ecosystem, but they can also cause problems when they begin to absorb nutrients from a living organism.
Fungus is a parasite and very often dictates eating behaviors in the host. Typically, we see people who have a fungal condition with certain cravings not knowing a host of fungal invaders are dictating their behavior; not knowing that their arthritis, their cancer, their diabetes or other diseases are related to fungus. These people tend to crave pasta, bread, potatoes and sugar, which is one clue a physician can use to accurately diagnose the condition.
83% of 25 people tested with a dark field microscope had various stages of systemic yeast infections in their blood. This means that the fungus is flowing everywhere throughout the body. This causes joint pain, stomach upset, allergies, reflux, and many other disorders that are misdiagnosed by conventional medicine.
Uric acid--a uremic toxin? Nakagawa, T et al; Blood Purif. 2006;24(1):67-70
Uric acid has often been regarded as simply a “marker” of renal disease but recently a study was conducted to clarify the role of uric acid in the kidney and determine
whether uric acid might actually be a cause of renal disease. In this research it was
found conclusively that hyperuricemia (increased uric acid levels in the blood)
stimulate systemic hypertension, glomerular hypertrophy/hypertension, afferent arteriolar sclerosis, and macrophage infiltration in the normal rat kidney and that in
already existing progressive renal disease, such as cyclosporine nephropathy and
remnant kidney in rat, uric acid accelerated the progression of renal disease. Thus uric acid is a cause of renal disease.
When we consume food that are high in acid or heavily processed, or food that
causes an allergic response in our digestive systems, the food will not be absorbed properly into our bodies as nutrients. Instead, some of the food will be absorbed into the bloodstream as
acid waste. The remainder of undigested food will linger in your intestines and putrefy, causing further release of acid into your bloodstream. The result is a general degeneration which creates the condition for cancer or its reoccurrence. This is a
great problem with autistic children who suffer from what is called “leaky gut syndrome.”
A latent "acidosis" develops because the body becomes mineral deficient.
The sugar is not going to end up encouraging the further growth of the cancer colonies because the baking soda is going to kill the cells before they have a chance to grow
- an equimolar mixture of baking soda and sodium carbonate to cause the brain to be in alkaline state, which protected against brain damage.
This chapter is crucial to medicine and especially cancer treatment because it addresses a fundamental meeting point or converging causes of many diseases including cancer. Mercury vapors in the mouth that spread mercury to all points in the body, increased use of antiboitics, periodontal disease, inappropriate oral care, yeast and fungal overgrowth, and decreasing immune strength are all colliding and reinforcing each other in a downward spiral that leads to chronic diseases and cancer. Most people and certainly dentists are surprised to find out that more often than not this all starts out in the mouth.
Most of our cancer patients have a lot of amalgam dental fillings.
Professor W. Kostler
President of Austrian Society of Oncology
More than 50 million Americans suffer from periodontitis. The underlying causes of periodontal disease are infectious agents such as virus, bacteria, spirochetes, amoebas and fungus. Peridontitis is a micro climate that reflects the macro climate of the entire body. A published study in the Journal of Periodontology confirms recent findings that people with periodontal disease are at a greater risk of systemic diseases and appears to be a risk factor for heart disease and stroke. In periodontal disease the pathogens form of a sticky, colorless plaque that constantly forms on our teeth; however other factors can cause periodontal (gum) disease or influence its progression.
Periodontal disease is a chronic infection that leads to chronic disease.
The most common strain of bacteria in dental plaque can cause blood clots that stimulate heart attacks when they escape into the bloodstream, researchers have reported.
With mercury implanted in the majority of peoples’ mouths and with mercury now outdistancing lead as the number one polluter in the environment we can assume that mercury toxicity is playing a huge role in the creation of many diseases including cancer and heart disease, the number one and two causes of death.
Mercury from amalgam fillings has been shown to be neurotoxic, embryotoxic, mutagenic, teratogenic, immunotoxic and clastogenic.10
It is capable of causing immune dysfunction and auto-immune diseases.
To increase your oral pH to a normal 7.2 or greater drink 1teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate salt in 2 ounces of purify water. It is that simple to neutralize the acids that cause cavities, mouth sores, Human Papilloma Virus (HPV16), bacteria, yeast and even Oral Cancer.
Insulin
The pancreas is killed if the body is metabolically acid as it tries to maintain bicarbonates. Without sufficient bicarbonates, the pancreas is killed, insulin becomes a problem and hence diabetes becomes an issue.
The names commonly used to refer to malfunctions in the pancreas are hypoglycemia and diabetes. These two seemingly separate metabolic problems are basically only different
states of a more fundamental bicarbonate and insulin disturbances.
Interestingly it
was found that uric acid or alloxan alone in small amounts did not cause a diabetic condition if the glutathione levels remained at normal levels in the lab animals tested.21 Shortly after this it was discovered that Sacchromyces yeast produces uric acid (Svlhia,1963) and
in 1976 after two children dying from diabetes were found to be infected with Cryptococcus fungi, further studies were done by injecting Cryptococcus directly into the pancreatic arteries. Necrosis (cell death) in the Islets of
Langerhans resulted. This is where insulin producing cells originate. Cryptococcus fungi also produce alloxan, a uric acid byproduct. Further studies through the years confirmed alloxan’s damage to the pancreatic islet cells (Pogo,
1980) and in 1990 Coleman et. al fed mice a diet of 10% brewers yeast, and diabetes resulted. In the 1980s it was found that other alloxan-like metabolites of uric acid
were diabetogenic, some even more so than alloxan alone.22
Insulin and Magnesium
Magnesium is necessary for both the action of insulin and the manufacture of insulin.
Magnesium is a basic building block to life and is present in ionic form throughout the full landscape of human physiology. Without insulin though, magnesium doesn't get transported from our blood into our cells where it is most needed. When Dr. Jerry Nadler of the Gonda Diabetes Center at the City of Hope Medical Center in Duarte, California, and his colleagues placed 16 healthy people on magnesium-deficient diets, their insulin became less effective at getting sugar from their blood into their cells, where it's burned or
stored as fuel. In other words, they became less insulin sensitive or
what is called insulin resistant. And that's the first step on the road to both diabetes and heart disease. dilution
Insulin is a common denominator, a central figure in life as is magnesium. The task of insulin is to store excess nutritional resources.This system is an evolutionary development used to save energy and other nutritional necessities in times (or hours) of abundance in order to survive in times of hunger. Little do we appreciate that insulin is not just responsible for regulating sugar entry into the cells but also magnesium, one of
the most important substances for life. It
is interesting to note here that the kidneys are working at the opposite end physiologically dumping from the blood excess nutrients that the body does not need or cannot process in the moment.
