I'm OK, but What Happened to My Body?

wow Hi Mr. Whang, honored to speak with you! I have always had a question for you at least! And thank you for all your wonderful scientific research, I love it! My question is, I have been reading Dr. Jarvis' book called Vermont Folk Medicine/1958, and am wondering, have you read it? If you have, what do you think of his book and wisdom? I really love that book, got your's too! I wonder about his terminology concerning acid and alkaline, seems backwards??? I also wonder, I think vinegar inhibits my digestion of starches, so I only use it in the morning. And do you know anything about eating wheat, I really don't like it that much but it is an inexpensive and plentiful food that keeps me going.
ReplyDeleteAlso, wondering, our starches are digested with Ptalin (carb. digestion enzyme) through the saliva: now TMG, or Betaine, is a naturally occurring hydrochloric acid, said to reduce a certain protein in the blood that is indicative of heart disease. I am wondering, what you think about TMG and digestion of starches, when Ptalin is what is necessary for digestion of starches, not hydrochloric acid???
It is said that to activate the hydrochloric acid in the stomach digestive process (like eating meats with starches and thus inhibiting the digestion of starches), can cause us indigestion of starches (and thus even weight gain). I am wondering if this TMG helps us by, being a natural form of hydrochloric acid, adding more bicarbonate to our digestive system, any idea on that??? I used to use the TMG alot, but am concerned, so I quit using it when I eat alot of starches, just in case I am causing the starches to be indigestible. I would like to know if I can use it even with starches? Good Question, aye? heh! I can't believe I even get to ask you this question, have pondered it alot! I am somewhat of a student of Dr. Herbert Shelton's books, of San Antonio, not very well known. Well, thankyou very much! kathy (StarNet)
Kathy,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment!
I am a scientist studying the pH value of the drinking water and the bicarbonates in the blood. Once there is a sufficient number of bicarbonates in the blood, the intelligent body knows what to do to maintain health.
I am not an MD specializing any particular symptoms of illness or the functions of organs. I am not a dietitian who specializes in different foods and their effect on the human body. Since these people are not scientifically oriented, they have different opinions. They don’t necessarily agree with each other.
I have not read Dr. Jarvis’ book called Vermont Folk Medicine, but I heard that he promotes drinking vinegar. Vinegar usually is derived from fruits, and fruits in general have plenty of alkaline minerals. Therefore, vinegar, according to the macrobiotic diet definition, is an acid-tasting but alkaline-forming food (page 32 of Reverse Aging). The acidic part of vinegar is an organic substance that gives energy to the cells, and what is remaining is alkaline minerals.
Alkaline water does not give any energy but puts bicarbonates into the blood. With bicarbonates in the blood, the blood circulation improves and one feels more energetic. Alkaline minerals in the food do not add bicarbonates to the blood as effectively as alkaline water. I am not qualified to answer the effect of vinegar in digestion. Eating wheat is another subject that I cannot answer.
I am sorry but the rest of the questions are foreign to me.
In this country, when it comes to health, people think of diet and exercise. They miss the most important things: alkalinity, acidity, and bicarbonate in the blood. If drinking alkaline water with the pH value of 10 helps, you can imagine what kind of damage it can do by drinking carbonated drinks with pH values of 2 to 3. It’s not the calories in the cola drinks but it is the low pH value of cola drinks that do the damage. Diet Cola does not help.
In Health,

Hi, thankyou Mr. Whang! Yes, your answer, here, is very interesting to consider. Bioscience is one of my favorite hobbies, though not my specialty. I follow your books, you make these things very clear, and fascinating. I have given away a few of your books already and cannot wait to read your new one! Lots of research! I am delighted with your revelation of scientific facts, and not opinions! Who can argue with that?
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with what you said, on "alkalinity, acidity, and bicarbonate in the blood" are most essential!
I still hope to find out one day if TMG/betaine (a naturally occurring hydrochloric acid supplement made from beets) actually does get more bicarbonate into the blood, as you mentioned that stomach acid's by product is bicarbonate? It wouldn't surprise me because it is said to have a significant effect on heart health, but that is a whole other story...
Have you heard of the mineralizing Water Sticks, out? that put hydrogen(?) in the water, supposedly making the water more alkaline? They are supposed to render the Kangen type of water machines you mention in your books, to be obsolete (as do your bicarbonate elixirs, likewise), but I don't understand the scientific process, something to do with magnesium and mineralization of the water, etc.?
I can't wait to try your bicarbonate elixirs one of these days, soon I hope, and will let you know how it goes! I just told two of my friends about you, and your bicarbonate elixirs, I hope they can get your elixirs, because they are very ill! I tell everyone what you teach about the sodas too! That is so important, nobody has a clue!
I can't tell everyone enough, about "alkalinity, acidity, and bicarbonate in the blood"! My mom has been trying to get her family interested for years on the subject of acid/alkaline balance! To find an interestingly written and thorough scientific book on the subject is very important to us all! Clears up many misconceptions, and establishes the necessity to apply the wisdom you reveal, giving us all hope for a healthier life! Our bodies are amazingly competent, to take good care of us, given what is necessary to promote life and health!
As for Dr. Jarvis' book, thankyou for helping me to figure that out! It was a bit confusing, without your input here. I have wanted to ask you about that since I read his little book! Thanks!
I will let your know when I find out more info on the water sticks!
I am happy to meet and speak with you! Hope to 'see' you again soon! take care! and happy holiday season! kathy/StarNet Dec. 13, 09
Kathy,
ReplyDeleteThere are two points that I think they are contradicting the natural science.
The first point is that adding hydrochloric acid to the stomach does not necessarily add bicarbonate to the blood. If the hydrochloric acid is created by your cells, the byproduct of creating hydrochloric acid is bicarbonate that goes into the blood. However, if the hydrochloric acid is created by the food that you consume, there is no byproduct of bicarbonate.
The second point is about so-called hydrogen sticks that create hydrogen in the body. If they are not ionized, that is, in the form of H2, they are the same as drinking hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). They do not add alkalinity. If the hydrogen is in the form of ionization (H+), it adds acidity to the body. Remember acidity is more H+ than OH- and alkalinity is more OH- than H+.
Without water, there is no pH value and also without water there is no life. Therefore, without pH value, there is no life! Every living cell is surrounded by membrane and membrane can maintain different pH values inside and outside the cells. This pH difference can control the flow of nutrients into the cell through a special orifice and flow of waste products out of the cell. That’s how life can exist.
The two products above may help one’s health by reasons that I don’t know, but not because the reasons that they preach. They don’t understand the natural science.
Hope it helps.

Dear Mr. Whang,
ReplyDeleteI came across your site and I think it's great that you are offering a Q/A so thank you for this opportunity. I have recently began my journey into PH balancing and keeping the blood slightly alkaline. This has led me to the study of biological terrain and pleomorphism. I understand the concepts of the terrain theory and pleomorphism. Are these areas in which you study? Where can a beginner like me learn more about these things? Are there any good reads on this topic that you can recommend?
Mr. Whang,
ReplyDeleteWould you please explain why you believe the internal use of hydrogen peroxide may not produce the results that are often attributed to it. Also, what role (good/bad) does the ingestion of salt (NaCl) play in the production of bicarbonate as it is used in the production of stomach acid. Does excess salt actually make its way into the intestines as NaCl?
Regards, King

ReplyDeleteThank you for your question! Sorry for the late response. I am an inventor, that is, an original thinker. There is no reference that I can suggest. Only book that I can recommend is my first book “Reverse Aging” published in 1990.
Without any promotional fanfare, there are more than 100,000 copies in English circulating around and more than 9 translations into foreighn languages. I hear many people saying that it is written easy to understand although the subject matter is difficult.
@King: Yes! I'll get back with you on this matter shortly.
@King:
ReplyDeleteHydrogen peroxide does not increase pH of the water as hydroxyl ion (OH-). As such, it does not increase the pH value of the stomach and therefore, it does not induce hydrochloric acid in the stomach, nor bicarbonate in the blood stream.
Salt, (NaCl) dissolves in water and it does not increase alkalinity or acidity in the body. While sodium is a strong alkaline mineral, chlorine is a strong acid element. If NaCl is dissolved in water, the pH will be neutral. In the mean time, we will be upsetting the mineral balance of sodium and potassium will become upset. In the body, potassium stays in the cells while sodium stays outside the cells. If there is an excessive amount of sodium in the body, some of it will penetrate into the cells and this causes hyper tension. That’s why doctors tell us to cut out the sodium intake if one has high blood pressure.
Neither hydrogen peroxide or salt will add bicarbonate to the blood.
