I am trying to find information for a doctor who scoffed a test that was performed by my LLMD. My blood ammonia was very low, meaning I think, pH was very acidic, down in the 5.0 levels.
Does anyone have scientific documentation that I may offer to this doctor.
Thank you, Lemonhead

I'm not a Doctor or Scientist but I think that the ideal human PH level is 7.0. Google 'Human PH Levels' there may be some info there. It has been suggested to me to take 1 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda in a large glass of water each day to bring my PH level up from 5.9.
Hope you find some useful info.

Chlorella is Alkaline and Helps Balance Your Body's pH It's important that we maintain a balance body pH of ideally about 7.2-7.4, which is about neutral. However, because of our poor diet of junk food, overcooked, processed foods, fast food, which include soft drinks which have a pH of 2.7, most of us are not balanced.
This is important because most diseases start, live and thrive in an acidic environment and do not live well in an alkaline environment. Cancer rates have risen steadily so that now fully 1/3 of all people in the U. S. will get cancer in their lifetime.

Doctors believe we have enough minerals/glycogen stores to handle all the acids/negative charges they throw at us.
Depleting our minerals is NOT a good idea!
Yes, acids have a negative charge. So does light...frequencies...radiation (therapy to knock off cancerous cells)...in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Negative charges destroy pathogens.
But...
Too many harm healthy cells.
We are supposed to be slightly alkaline.
Cancer ONLY happens in an ongoing acidic environment.
If we are alkaline (slightly), our NK cells destroy pre cancerous cells every day (about 4 per day) by "squirting" them with a negative charge free radical.
Targeting is what it is all about. Far better to TARGET the pathogen/cell in which it is hiding than to make the ENTIRE system acidic, IMO.

Hi all- Been disabled since 2000 with Chronic Neurological Lyme; Diagnosed from Infectious Disease Doctor at Boston University Medical, can't feel head, arms, legs (scattered lesions in frontal lobe, nerves demylating)...have burning acid/knife pains in legs. Question- I get a very strong ammonia smell in sinus' and have to sneeze violently 10 or more times to get rid of the odor, is this that acidic problem you're talking about?

Ben, I don't know the answer, but are you seeing someone for treatment?
I drink raw apple cider vinegar in water or fresh lemon squeezed in water. Both are alkalinizing to the system.

Ben,
I don't know the answer either but I think I know that smell/burn.
Back when I was healthy, I used to run. After a run, my nose would get a very strong ammonia smell to it and it would burn.
What was that?

You know that as we exercise we produce lactic acid, right?
Lactic acid buildup is/was believed to cause the ache in our muscles when we run before the endorphins (runner's high) kick in.
Here's the link:
"Ammonia is often used for pH adjustment during fermentation of glucose to lactic acid."
