Review by An Avid Reader for Reverse Aging

This was one of the first books I picked up after reading Dr. Young’s “The pH Miracle”, which had left me with more questions than answers.

What I loved about this book was the way Mr. Whang explains – in plain English anyone can understand – the chemical and physical science that makes alkaline diets work.

If you’re looking to understand the science behind alkaline diets, this book is a must-read.

Mr. Whang doesn’t approach alkaline balance like most other authors who just tell you to eat this and not eat that. In the first few chapters of the book, he gives the reader the essential understanding of how the human body works – from a chemical perspective. He doesn’t make assumptions or rely on annectodal data – he shows the reader how the laws of physics and chemistry affect the chemical reactions inside the human body.

Armed with this information, he then tells the reader how the basic elements of foods (minerals, calcium, phosphorus, etc.) affect the pH of the body. This is the key understanding when it comes to figuring out which foods are acidifying and which ones are alkalizing.

His approach is very straight forward, clear, and matter-of-fact.

He then goes on to show how an acidic lifestyle and diet affects the body, how the body tries to maintain its chemical integrity, and what the resulting strain does, in terms of reactions, diseases, etc.

Mr. Whang’s description of diseases and how they come to be is also very interesting. He goes through a long list of diseases, gives specific reasons for each of them (from an alkaline diet point of view) and tells the reader how to reverse them.

He goes a step further in his description of non-medicinal health improvement devices that are mainly used in other countries. Again, giving scientific reasons why and how they work to alkalize the body.

What is missing from this book is a good description of what to do on a day-to-day basis to become alkaline. He only mentions drinking alkaline waters. As a matter of fact, the only book I’ve found that has practical approach and step-by-step instructions for becomong alkaline (including what to do tomorrow) is this acid alkaline diet book.

Nonetheless, I think Mr. Whang’s book is excellent. If you’re serious about getting healthy through an alkaline diet, you must to read this book (and also find another book that gives step-by-step instructions for what to do).

Mr. Whang’s book – in my opinion – should be a “must read” for everyone. I have made an extensive study of these machines and their use, have used one myself for over a year and find that my weight has dropped as did Mr. Whang’s; and be assured that the alkaline water will indeed “clean you out.” One of the caveats in the instructions for use is to be cautious when first using alkaline water as it will cause loosening of the bowels for a short period. I can attest it does clean you out!The one thing Mr. Whang does not mention is that your water may not work well in an ionizer if it has too much salt or is too hard. Hardness over 200 ppm can give trouble – the solution is to use bottled water with a stand-alone unit and thus get all the benefits of alkaline and acidic water. Also as noted by one of the other reviews, adding alkaline drops to the water you drink is a good thing. It isn’t as powerful as an Ionizer but sure beats doing nothing for your health.

OK, there are some great explanations on how the body creates acid waste from poor food choices. BUT that’s it. Poor food choices do create more acid waste but it has nothing to do with the pH of the food. If this were true than eating lots of cooked eggs and meat would alkalize the body because they have an alkaline pH just like Whang’s water. The fact is: eating too much cooked eggs and meat CAN lead to more acid waste in the tissues.

Consuming alkaline ionized water, with loads of calcium, will eventually end up in your arteries causing only problems when you get older. If anyone wants to learn about the criteria for healthy drinking water they should be buying all the books on Victor Schauberger, the greatest water researcher that ever lived! If you don’t know Victor Schauberger, you don’t know a thing about water! Interesting enough he advocated drinking just the opposite, water that was slightly acidic using very small amounts of carbonic acid. He proved he could alkalize tissue faster than anything else known to man by drinking water that was slightly acidic.

This also makes perfect sense in terms of homeopathy. If like cures like, as proven in homeopathy over 200 years ago, then drinking water that is slightly acidic (NOT alkaline!) would in turn eliminate excess acidic waste in the tissues. What about all those testimonials you say? It is a fact that placebo can makeup 40% of claims. But the obvious truth is: all of these users were drinking “MORE” water which that in itself gives great benefits, as proven in “Your Bodies Many Cries for Water” by Batmanghelidj.

All those people drinking alkaline water should do their home work instead of blindly jumping on some band wagon with a fool promoting his products.
