Physical Problems Caused By Consuming Acid Foods

Acid Stomach & Heartburn – Most stomach disorders (indigestion, nausea, bloating, gastric reflux, etc.) are caused by excess acidity. And what is man’s solution? Antacids! Do these antacids get rid of the problem? No! People must continue taking them, often on a daily basis. This over-alkalizes the stomach juices, which leads to additional physical breakdown, often resulting in further drug prescriptions.
God’s simple solution to acid reflux, heartburn, and most other stomach problems is to stop consuming acidic substances and start consuming alkalizing foods mentioned in Genesis 1:29. In most instances (within a few days), symptoms simply disappear… without drugs.
Arthritis – This word means “inflammation of the joint” and the word “inflammation” defines over 100 diseases that cause pain, stiffness, and swelling. Most arthritic problems are caused by the accumulation of alkaline calcium deposits in the joints.
The major culprit here is lack of vitamin K, which causes calcium deposits in the wrong places. When a person suffering with arthritis stops consuming an acid diet and starts consuming an alkaline diet loaded with leafy greens (which are high in vitamin K), they usually start to experience improvement quite rapidly.
In last week’s Health Tip #674 I shared the testimony of Kayla who had suffered with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and fibromyalgia since age 18. In just 2 months after adopting The Hallelujah Diet she was free of pain and medication.
Are Drugs The Answer?
In the September 2010 issue of Health magazine (pages 106 – 109), there is an advertisement for the drug “CIMZIA” which hails: “RA relief that can help you get a better grip on life. . . . has been clinically proven vs. placebo to reduce RA pain . . .” (Cost of “CIMZIA” is $1,350.00 per dose.) In much smaller print the ad warns…
“CIMZIA is a prescription medicine that affects your immune system. CIMZIA can lower the ability of the immune system to fight infections. Serious infections have happened in patients taking CIMZIA including tuberculosis (TB) and infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria that have spread throughout the body. Some patients have died from these infections.”
…and there’s more:
“… For people taking TNF-blocker medicines, including CIMZIA, thechances for getting lymphoma or other cancers may increase…”
How true are those words found in Hosea 4:6 that state: “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. . .”
Gout – Is a form of arthritis caused by excess uric acid crystals in the blood. Often, these acid crystals settle in the feet, hands, and toe, causing swelling and severe pain. Painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs (all acidic) are often prescribed, but never correct the problem.
God’s Solution – Stop consuming acid foods that cause gout and adopt God’s Genesis 1:29 alkalizing diet. Many people have written to tell me that when they stopped consuming acid foods (especially animal-source foods, which are high in acidity) and switched to The Hallelujah Diet their gout simply went away.
Cancer – When a person consumes a highly acidic diet and is unable to excrete all those excess acids, the body stores those excess acids. Thisleads to oxygen deprivation and cell fermentation, which causes healthy cells to begin to rot.
Dr. Gary Tunsky in his book, The Battle For Health Is Over pH, explains cancer’s origin: “This acid fermentation process is what we label as cancer. It’s my conclusion, based on years of research and study, that cancer is nothing more than an electrical disturbance at the sub-atomic and DNA level caused byoxygen deprivation, dehydration, cellular intoxication, lack of circulation and electrical flow that leads to cell asphyxiation, finally resulting in cell mutation.”
Dr. Young in his book, Sick and Tired: Reclaim Your Inner Terrain, states:“Cancer therefore is a four letter word ACID.”
Over the years, dozens of people who had been diagnosed with cancer report that after they adopted The Hallelujah Diet, they saw their cancers simply go into remission… without chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery.
Almost every physical problem man experiences has acid as the cause or contributing cause. Eliminate the cause, provide the body with God’s alkalizing Genesis 1:29 diet, start exercising, and most physical problems will usually (and quickly) begin to disappear.
The Bible explains it this way in Proverbs 12:2: “The curse causeless shall not come.” Every physical problem has a CAUSE! Eliminate the CAUSE and most physical problems will cease!
