My Crazy Sexy Life

I am a new cancer patient with a recurrence of malignant thyroid cancer just 3 months after treatment (this means it's aggressive). I am interested in starting something to balance pH (don't know what books to read) and I am interested in really increasing my fresh fruit/veg consumption. I have a VitaMixer that I use occasionally but would like it to become part of everyday life for both me and my kids.

Can you guys pass on whatever recipes you LOVE and HATE so I know what to avoid and what to try?? Also any book references would be greatly appreciated!

Gen, are you the 3000th member. If you are congrats. First off with four kids, how blessed you are. With two little ones I have found it is very important right now to pamper yourself and take time for yourself. I have tried the book Alkalize or Die by -sorry I forget but it is a very popular one you probably can find it on amazon.com. Also, Try some of the macrobiotic recipies, they are very alkalizing, although I wouldn't go nuts with that diet, it can be very restrictive. I also tried and have to remember to go back to urinating on a ph strip. I bought mine at the healthfood store and it was very interesting to see what made my body more alkaline and acidic. Remember you can read any book but the most acurate way is to test yourself. Remember to stay positive, it's so important, and REST. Believe me I know it's hard. Also, Young Living has a product that is to instantly alkalize your body. I have never used it but I have a friend who swears by it. www.youngliving.org/babette1963. The product is called Alkalime. Also if you are drinking alot of water squeeze a lime or lemon in it. They are highly alkalizing even though you may think it's acidic. I will say prayers for you and send you good light and love.

My hubby did research on Ionized water and read the book: The Miraculous Properties of Ionized water: the Definitive guide to the Worlds Healthiest Substance by Bob Cauley. we now have a water filter/ionized water called Jupiter(expensive, but much better than tap water!)

When I was looking in to this same thing, many suggested the book The PH Miracle...Hope all is well. Best wishes to you!

Hey hey,

I have been buying Distilled water ~ getting 1 gal refills at Whole Foods Market for about 45 cents a gallon; to this I am adding a few drops of trace minerals and a tsp of simple arm and hammer baking soda per 8 oz glass. This makes me instantly go alkaline according the ph strip and is very cost effective for me. I spoke with Dr. Robert Young (a guy many folks on this site are very familiar with and whose theories many here follow) and he has given this method the thumbs up. I'm also WORKING on eating more raw...that's been a challenge as I am already very thin and I worry about dropping weight.

Water is the most important first step to alkalizing. I would start by finding what works for you with that. The baking soda tastes nasty until your used to it. I do the trace minerals b/c I have heard and read that drinking distilled water can wash out all the minerals in your body b/c it has absolutely nothing in it.

My favorite juice , and the favorite of my 16 year old son, we call the hulk. We blend in our vitamix 1 whole head of celery, two apples and 2 big handfuls of spinach with a little water. Then strain through a nut milk bag or 1 gallon paint strainer. Chill and enjoy! Peace, Jane
