Is it safe?
Obviously we all have just one body. Just
as obviously this fact causes us to exercise
a great deal of caution about what we do
with this body. Yet if we look at a typical
human, he or she never actually seem to
take serious care of themselves until they
feel some form of dis-ease.
Dis-ease is the major cause of the
pharmaceutical industry. Dis-ease is the
reason for the proliferation of health food
stores. Dis-ease is the reason for health
magazines, health clubs, health websites
and health supplements. They really all
should be called Disease shops, Disease
magazines and Disease clubs, because
that is the reason for their existence.
Theodore Baroody
Dr Theodore A. Baroody, DC, ND, Ph.D., Dipl. Acu. is one of the growing number of Alkaline Pioneers. His book,
Alkalize or Die is an unmistakeable challenge to our pre-existing health concepts.
Dr Baroody was born in Sanford, NC, in 1950. He received his B.S. in Psychology and his Masters degree
in Educational Counseling from Western Carolina University in 1974 and 1978. He received his D.C. degree
from Life Chiropractic College of Marietta, Ga. in 1981. He further studied in Beirut, Lebanon and at Colombo
Americano, Columbia, as well as having traveled extensively in Europe and Asia to gather information on the

Heart:
The heart is one of the most
alkaline-dependent organs in the
body. It is partly enervated by
the vagus nerve which functions
best in an alkaline environment.
Correct heartbeat is altered by
acid wastes. These wastes rob the
blood of proper oxygenation and
degeneration of the heart follows.
An alkaline system creates an
ideal heart function.
Stomach:
Digestive difficulties (belching,
bloating, sensitivity at the waist,
intestinal gas, regurgitation,
hiccups, lack or limitation of
appetite, nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea, constipation, colic in
children) may indicate vagus
nerve problems and possible
hiatus hernia syndrome, which
can produce acid residue
throughout the system. Hiatus

Small Intestines:
The Peyers Patches, in the upper portion of the
small intestines are crucial to life. They are essential
for proper assimilation of food and producing
lymphocytes for the lymphatic systems wide
ranging nodal network. They also produce large
amounts of the enzyme chyle, which is a major
alkalizing substance. The uninterrupted flow of
chyle into the system is crucial. Too much acid waste
production from acid-forming foods is a great burden
on the Peyers Patches, which lessens the production
of chyle.
Kidneys:
In an adult, about 1 litre of blood per minute passes
through the kidneys. By executing their primary
duty, the kidneys keep the blood alkaline and extract
acid. Kidneys that are over-stressed with too much
acidity create kidney stones, which are composed
of waste acid cells and mineral salts that have
become gummed together in a waste acid substance.
Therefore, by reducing acid-forming products from
entering the body, the chances are better that you can
avoid this painful condition.
Colon:
The colon must be kept clean of accumulated acid
wastes. Poisons collect on the colon walls and in
cases of diarrhea or constipation will harden and
reabsorb into the bloodstream. Good bowel action
(complete elimination) must be done at least 2 times
per day.
Lymphatic System
There are 600-700 lymph glands in the body. Lymph
fluid carries nutrition to the cells and removes acid
waste products. Lymph fluid flows best in an alkaline
environment. When the body is overly acidic, it
slows, creating one of the most chronic, long-term,
life-threatening situations. Gradually, the lymph
dries and begins to form very tiny to very large
adhesions throughout the tissues. These adhesions
can interfere not only with lymph fluid but with
blood flow as well. Hindered lymph flow increases
