Americans have lived through many health crises in the past but the latest threat, though largely preventable, has silently grown to potentially deadly proportions. America is in the grips of an "acidic obesity epidemic," and 65 percent of the population is over-acid and thus over-weight.
Even those who may not consider themselves over-acid and over-weight may be carrying a large amount of acidic deadly belly fat, known to increase the risk of heart disease in relatively slim, fit and alkaline people.
Most people have a basic sense that being over-acid and then over-weight is bad for their health, but few appreciate just how dangerous being over-acid is.
My book, The pH Miracle for Weight Loss talks about controlling and buffering excess acidity leading to the body retaining fat as a protection is really simple to reverse: Eat for health, not for pleasure. This is not to say that a healthy alkaline diet has to taste bad. But it is critical to keep in mind that the goal is a diet that provides health and fitness. The loss of excess acid fat will always come when you follow a healthy alkaline diet.
Below are my seven steps for losing excess acidic fat bound weight permanently! For a detailed discussion on how to lose acidic fat bound weight read, "The pH Miracle for Weight Loss" by Dr. Robert and Shelley Young.
1. Eat lots of alkaline vegetables and fruits. Also, eat a mixture of fresh organically grown vegetables and fruits, which should all be cleansed thoroughly to remove pesticides and herbicides with a mixture of liquid sodium bicarbonate, called puripHy.

2. Avoid excessive complex and simple carbohydrates. The four worst culprits are sweetened drinks (sodas and fruits drinks), pasta, breads and high sugar fruits like bananas and apples. While acidic sugary desserts are bad, they are never eaten in as high a volume as these four.
Breads and pastas are high on the glycemic or acid index -- a measure of how fast a carbohydrate is broken down into the acid sugar and absorbed into the blood. The faster acidic sugar enters the blood, the greater the secretion of insulin and sodium bicarbonate -- the process that causes us to be hungry. Foods low on the acid index are absorbed more slowly, like avocado, cucumber, broccoli and leafy greens.
Your source of carbohydrates will be low sugar, such as avocado, cucumber, broccoli, celery, parsley, leafy greens, etc. Years ago it was observed that the Asians ate a diet high in carbohydrates, yet they had a low risk of heart attack and stroke. Now we know that's
because they eat only carbohydrates that contain fiber which adsorbs and absorbs dietary acids.
3. Avoid all animal proteins. All meats are acidic and the worst are turkey, ostrich, pork and chicken. Organically raised animals are not any better. Processed meats should never be eaten, since most are heavily dosed with the acid nitrite and injected with exotoxic and mycotoxic additives. A recent study found that eating these meats multiplies the risk for a cancerous pancreas by 62 times.
It is not worth the risk to eat animal protein. Animal protein contains over 350,000 pathological microorganisms per gram and is never completely digested in the gut. The acids from the animal flesh, which includes, nitric acid, uric acid, phosphoric acid and sulphuric acid, the high titers of microorganisms and the congestion it causes in the small and large bowel the best choice is to NEVER eat meat! You don't need it! IF you want to build a strong and healthy body then you need to eliminate meat and start eating and drinking chlorophyll from green plants. This is why I have created the Young pHorever concentrated liquid Chlorophyll. Add just a few drops to each glass of
purified and alkaline water.
