Keebler, Sorry, when I said relatively low protein, I meant adequate protein. Around 100g/day for someone like myself weighing 185 lbs. I used to be a bodybuilder consuming apron 300g/day. This is not good for the terrain. It's toxic.

Geronimog and Keebler,
I guess, each person is different and not only that, each person is IN A DIFFERENT phase of health.
I do believe that for some people, being alkaline, eating low protein can do wonders for a while.
And I do believe that the opposite, high protein, animal or not, high fat, can ALSO do wonders for a while too!
And again: fasting can be one of the most powerful ways to make your immune system wake up and a very powerful way to make your body start detoxing again.
So, really, while I never really bought the story of alkalinization (because I TRIED that, I really did, and it made my digestion worse, I felt crap with it), I don't believe it is CRAP in itself!
I'm sure that after I say it is crap, my body will change and I will suddenly feel that THAT is what is needing!!
Dr. K. says: the body can ONLY detoxify if it's acid, in acid conditions. So 100% of the time alkaline is also not good. But I suppose that 100% of the time acid, cannot be good either.
The Chinese, long ago, knew about yin-yang, the male-female principle of the universe. Yin-yang are not opposite, but complementary.
I guess, our bodies work the same way: nothing is 100% good 100% of the time!
that is why I just follow my gut: one day it is a day to eat sugars, fruits, carbs.
The other day, I feel like eating just eggs, butter, fresh cream, oily stuff, nuts.
Another, I just want to eat NOTHING, and rest! Which one is the best way to eat?
