Impact of Diet on Health and Disease
Meat.
This explains why Dr. Colin Campbell found he could turn
cancer cells on and off like a switch by the amount of meat and
dairy products he was giving the rats.
Refined sugar,
it's very acid-forming.
The hybridized wheat, the hybridization of the wheat

minerals. Aged cheese.
What's the blue in the blue vein cheese?

So the only cheeses that don't sit under that category,
the cheeses that have probably a pH of seven would

And of course, caffeine usually comes hand-in-hand with
the sugar, which

To maintain
the 6.5 environment,
we need to be consuming 20% acid-forming foods,
80%, 70 to 80% alkaline-forming foods,

beans, your
kidney beans. They're not bad. Of course they're not bad.
We need a little acid.
It's when the whole meal is acid that tips the
scales. How many, how many Americans
would be eating 90% acid, 10%
alkaline? Is that true?
No wonder cancer and heart disease are neck to neck for the number one
killers in the world today.
