It is not bacteria or viruses that produce disease. It is THE BYPRODUCTS of microorganisms ENACTING on the MALFUNCTIONING acidic, low oxygen body cells that produce disease.

If the body’s cellular metabolism, water, oxygen, lung capacity, and pH (electromagnetic neutral balance) are properly balanced, the body cells will produce very little disease. Dr. Carey Reams lists these very important factors in chapter 25.

The acidic body cell’s low pH is the CATALYST for progression of disease and loss of longevity. Healthy body cells are almost always alkaline and have EXTRA ATOMIC ELECTRONS and high millivoltage in their molecules (they are oxidants). Acidic cells LOSE ELECTRONS and millivoltage in their molecules which is necessary to protect them from being healthy body cells (they are potential antioxidants). Acidic cells are diseases waiting to happen. That is why optimum water, oxygen, lung capacity, exercise, alkaline foods, and bioelectric balance of body cells are so important to keep the body healthy.

Disease cells always have a lower electromagnetic value (lower pH or Hertz measurement). An example of this is cancer cells. The pH (acid/alkaline value) or Hertz value is usually -7 to -15 Hertz measurement versus a normal healthy cell being -65 t0 –75 Hertz value. To explain further, every diseased cell in a person’s body has a lower electromagnetic value than normal healthy body cells.

Accumulated wastes and toxins from acidic diets cause diseases and age body cells. They also make it harder for cells to regenerate and make new cells. The acidic diet culminates in the intestinal biome (bacteria colony) of the gut and creates toxins, inflammation, and holes in the small intestine (leaky gut). That begins a flood of toxins, bad bacteria, Candida Albicans yeast/fungus, parasites, and toxic waste particles into the bloodstream. These aliens go to all body cells and the brain. In body cells, they RESTRICT THE OSMOSIS of the cell membranes. This restricts the entry of oxygen, nutrients, and minerals into the cells while restricting the wastes, CO2, and contaminants out of the body cells. While this is progressing, the body cells become acidic. They also lose millivoltage. The body cells are sick and cannot function properly. They can deteriorate, some die or some may also mutate into diseases and cancer. It is this byproduct of the toxic organisms, enacting on the malfunctioning acidic body cells that lower the cell voltage and makes them vulnerable to diseases.

Not mentioned very often, this chronic acidic low voltage cell metabolism over time leads to a loss of longevity. Sometimes more than 10 or 15 years. CHRONIC ACIDIC LOW CELL VOLTAGE and LACK OF EXERCISE is why we are seeing so many younger people dying before their time.

Knowing the pH, or acid/alkaline value of the urine, saliva, blood, and body cells is a very good argument for obtaining some hydrion litmus paper to check your urine and saliva every day. This can indirectly inform you of the approximate pH of the bloodstream and body cells, which stay constant at 7.35.

A very important note here is that the pH of the bloodstream determines the heart rhythm. When the blood pH gets low, the blood calls out for calcium from the cartilage and bones in the body to raise the pH and keep a steady heart rhythm. Where does the calcium come from? From places where osteoclasts (cartilage and bone grabber cells) are active. Where are they most active? In people with poor posture, scoliosis, cramped vertebral cartilages, and people with periodontal infections between the teeth. This is very important because eating a great alkaline diet, drinking a lot of water, getting proper oxygen, and exercising is the basis of keeping a neutral pH, keeping a great heart rhythm, and keeping body cells healthy.

A very important duty is drinking enough good water to help optimize the body’s metabolism. A recent study has found that 75 percent of residents in the U.S., Canada, and /England are dehydrated. Doctors say that you should drink one-half of your body weight in ounces of water every day. (see chapter 32). This amounts to 3 to 4 glasses of water each day.

Water can vary in pH and that will range from 6.8 to 7.4 in different water systems. The tap water in my city is pH 6.8. This is OK but according to the latest health news, it is better if the water is 7.4 or above. If your city has 7.4 pH water, that is great. 7.35 is the pH of the blood and body cells, and balancing that out will help in your body’s cell metabolism.

Is alkaline water right for you? Product companies say that alkaline water has great benefits. Some of the benefits they say are:

ONE. It increases the pH of acidic body cells.

TWO. It neutralizes the acid in your body.

THREE. It slows the aging process.

FOUR. It regulates body cell pH levels.

FIVE. It prevents chronic diseases.

SIX. It increases oxygen utilization.

Because alkaline water has a higher pH level than regular cells, product makers say that adding electrons to acidic oxidant molecules will raise the pH of body cells by adding electrons to these molecules. But is this a true statement? The truth is that alkaline water must contain alkaline minerals and have a negative oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), to be effective. ORP is the ability of water to be an electron donor or molecular antioxidant.

A critical factor involved with alkaline water is whether it is natural (contains alkaline minerals) or artificial? Natural alkaline water is made by running water through alkaline minerals. Artificial alkaline water is made by electrolysis, a chemical artificial process. Artificial alkaline water uses electrolysis and an ionizer to raise the pH of regular water. Some doctors and water researchers say that the claims of using artificial chemical electrolysis aren’t backed by quality research.

Water experts are somewhat divided on how well alkaline water can raise body cell pH. The mayo clinic does not recommend alkaline water and says that regular water may be better.

Some product manufacturers say that alkaline water increases oxygen getting into the body cells, but there is a lack of proven evidence. Too much alkaline may cause problems with the normal body cell and blood pH.

Both natural and artificial alkaline water units sell from $500.00 to $5,000.00. A person can also buy bottles on the internet. My suggestion would be to thoroughly investigate both types of units before buying any alkaline water units.

A great exercise program, oxygen, and a great lung capacity may add 10 to 15 years to your life. I have written many times about exercise. I will mention again, exercise, with as much as possible, is the medicine of youth and long life. Oxygen is a very critical and necessary element for healthful living. The more exercise that you can get, the more that it will benefit you. All people need to exercise 4 to 7 times a week, with a MINIMUM of 150 minutes total. Much more is very desired for a better lung capacity, more oxygen to your body cells, and a reduction of acidic cells in your body. Acidic body cells and a reduced oxygen intake are the ideal environments for disease.

Teaching children to ski, swim, take them on hikes, jog on outdoor tracks, bicycle, walk on mountain trails, and do school sports are a great way to start children on an exercise program. I remember when I was a freshman in high school and weighed only 125 pounds, I turned out for all three major sports. I ran in track meets, often raced my brother up a 1500 foot mountain in the back of our house, skied, and hiked to numerous high lakes. Later, I turned out for basketball and baseball in college. When older, I climbed all 6 major mountains in Washington state including Mt. Rainier, Mt. Baker, Mt. St. Helens, and Mt. Adams. I ran in track meets, played summer softball, and exercised just about every day.

According to Dr. Al Sears, he states that your lung power will determine how long you will live. He says, “without enough lung power you risk a dangerous oxygen deficit in every body tissue, organ, and cell system in your body,”

His reasons for having lung power are many.

ONE. You lose vitality, stamina, and become short of breath with even small exertion.

TWO. More of your cells lose the energy they need to replace them with new cells and repair old cells with DNA.

THREE. Your immune system slows down.

FOUR. You raise the risk of serious diseases, including COPD, Alzheimer’s disease, and cancer.

FIVE. Without lung power, Dr. Sears states that your circulation slows down, and less oxygen gets to your brain.

SIX. These all help lower the longevity statistics for your life.

Another great healthful benefit comes from eating alkaline foods. The best cancer prevention in the world comes from maintaining the 80 (good bacteria/20 (bad bacteria) ratio in your small intestine. That very important ratio is determined by the diet and the foods that you eat. A healthy body needs to consume alkaline foods to maintain the 80/20 gut ratio. Remember that water intake, plus the oxygen in your body cells, is vitally needed to keep an alkaline pH.

I will list some of the many alkaline foods that are needed to keep the acid/alkaline urine and saliva pH (6.4 to 6.8), blood, and body cell neutrality (pH 7.35). These foods listed are many but not all alkaline foods. Sprouts, kale, kohlrabi, spinach, cucumbers, cauliflower, broccoli, green beans, beets, beet tops, dandelions, radishes, celery, watercress, cabbage, peppers, garlic, onions, barley grass, wheatgrass, mustard greens, collard greens, spirulina, lettuce, chard greens, and even alfalfa.

While consuming these alkaline foods a person needs to maintain the 80/20 gut ratio. This means that they need to eliminate or cut way down on sugar, sugar derivatives, red meat, excess carbohydrates, white flour, both diet, and regular soda pop, processed drinks, refined and processed foods, omega–6 oils on the grocery shelf, EXCEPT extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, and butter. Coconut oil, palm oil, and butter are better for cooking because they change very little when heated.

The last topic that is extremely important is STRESS, WORRY, , ANXIETY, AND ANGER. Many cancer clinics and physicians state that these illnesses can be the origin and a large cause of cancer. This is a high priority in treating cancer patients. To prevent cancer, it is important to keep a cool mind, evade these problems, and help other people evade them.

Remember that it is the byproduct (toxins and inflammation) caused by bad microorganisms in the gut, ACTING IN ACIDIC CELLS, WEAK CELLS, LOW OXYGEN CELLS, AND MALFUNCTIONING BODY CELLS, that produce disease. Keep the gut bacteria colony as neutral as possible. That creates great body health, a great immune system, energy, vitality, and longer life.

Associated with mercury elimination, oral surgery, crowns and bridges is TMJ treatment, diet control, parasite elimination, intestinal cleansing and healing (wellness).

Merle E. Loudon, B.S., D.D.S. has taught advanced courses for dentists on TM Dysfunction treatment, orthodontics and related pain control for more than 30 years. In 1972 he was the first dentist in Washington to use straight wire orthodontics and the first dentist to correct vertical deficiencies in children by placing vertical dimension-primary molar buildups and/or vertical (erupting) appliances. Merle E. Loudon, B.S., D.D.S. was involved with the first group of dentists to recognize lateral tongue splinting in young infants and integrate functional and fixed techniques to correct vertical dimension deficiencies and condylar placement. He is the originator of vertical dimension-primary molar build ups, which help to correct deep bites and Otitus media in children. He invented the Loudon-Chateau Anterior Repositioning Appliance, the functional muscle malocclusion concept, the twelve commandments of occlusion and the vertical overbite domino rule. Merle E.
