Product Description

Uncover the secret to better health and wellness. Modern agriculture and food-preservation methods have done serious damage to the human diet. The detrimental effects on the human body caused by acidic wastes from processed food and chemical additives are myriad.

Balancing the body's acid-alkaline pH factor is a dynamic way to improve health."The Acid-Alkaline Balance Diet" explores this exciting new treatment in alternative medicine. Based on Eastern medicinal practices, "The Acid-Alkaline Balance Diet" advocates a sensible food-combination program in conjunction with herbal medicine therapies to balance the positively charged acidic particles in the body with the negatively charged particles.

Organized by medical condition, this book makes it easy to quickly find the help and advice you need. There's also a practical test you can administer to help determine your metabolic type: grain eating, meat eating, or balanced. Forget the traditional notions of a well-balanced diet; for many, this well-balanced diet is the cause of various illnesses.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not at all helpful in helping change to an acid/alkali diet, 12 Feb 2006
By A Customer
Only one chapter - 30 pages - directly discusses the acid/alkali diet, and that actually states that "an acidic diet does not threaten the blood's pH factor nor causes degenerative disease" and that "it seems that an alkaline diet is not necessary for the maintainance of health". There are consequently few, if any, instructions as to how to follow such a diet. In fact, it recommends, for example, meat eating - which is generally considered an acid food. I found it difficult to follow the author's line of reasoning and didn't find myself understanding anything better after reading what she had to say.

The remainder of the book (173 pages) is divided into fourteen chapters on various different medical conditions (like obesity, kidney disease, hypothyroidism for example), which isn't a lot of use if you only suffer from one or two of these conditions.

My impression is that the author has jumped on the acid/alkali diet bandwagon, but actually gives very little, if any, useful information as to how to follow an acid/alkali diet - contrary to how it is described on the front cover.

3.0 out of 5 stars So wheres the diet?, 8 Mar 2006
By N. Newitt "natalie_newitt2" (Dorset UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is informative on a number of health issues; For those that want to know what the cause to their issues maybe its fine -It gives a simple idea of what will cure the condition; However, I found the title misleading - there is no diet.
I already knew about the theory, I actually wanted a 'diet' book that would lead me into healthier eating - this didn't do that. I know no more now than I did before about which foods help me with acid/alkaline balance.
Buy it if you ONLY want to know the theory.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Acid Alkaline Balance Diet, 7 Oct 2007
By Tami Brady "Whole Health Therapist" (Calgary, Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
As nasty as it may seem, our bodies are virtual garbage dumps. When we eat too much, or eat processed foods that our organs find hard to break down, our bodies can't work fast enough leaving waste within the body. Bacteria thrive in such environments. So begins the process of acidic waste collection in the body. The end result includes a wide range of medical problems from arthritis through insomnia to kidneys disease.

The Acid Alkaline Balance Diet looks to rebalance the system and remove this acidic waste from our system. The process is fairly complicated, mostly because each person's needs are different. Some individuals have a more acidic system while others have a more alkaline system. In each case, different diets and vitamin treatments are used to remove excess waste and bring the system back into stasis. Various tests that the reader can do for him or herself are included within the text enabling them to understand their particular issues and start to reduce these factors. Readers are also encouraged to see their homeopathic specialists for more in depth workups.

I am not really a vitamin person as I tend to like natural/organic alternatives. Therefore, I couldn't see myself sticking to this diet for any length of time. Nonetheless, I learnt a great deal from this book particularly the sections on ancestral diets and food allergies.
