Me and my family is at risk !

this is a story of an unfortunate family of mine, there have been a contineous deaths in my family due to cancer,my grandfather, father, my four brothers , one sister and two to three cousin's have died due to cancer. the age of all were 35 to 40, no body could survies more than three years after , surgery and redio therapy.

Now at present my one sister age 32, she is married and have three children is suffering from breast cancer, she has gone thorugh MRM ( modified Redical mastectomy) , Chemo threapy and radio therapy from Agha kHan hospital Karachi. she had also a mass in liver that was doubtfully a secondary mat but could not be verified by the doctors, but that mass is not present in the liver now. now the doctor has recommended the herceptin for furthre treatment.it is a very costly drug. around $35000 in pakistan. I belong to lower middle class so i went to an other doctor for 2nd opinion , he said u need not to use herceptin and u ve taken the best medical treatment.

My age is 29 years and i m leading the family now financialy and etc, i want to do every thing for saving my sister and family.i have two question always circulating in my mind.

1. wat should i do , to save my family and upcoming generation .

2. wat is the best for my sister at this stage.

Re: Me and my family is at risk !

Has anyone in your family ever checked their PH balance?

The pH scale goes from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Below 7 is acid and above 7 is alkaline. The blood, lymph and cerebral spinal fluid in the human body are designed to be slightly alkaline at a pH of 7.4.
At a pH slightly above 7.4 cancer cells become dormant and at pH 8.5 cancer cells will die while healthy cells will live. This has given rise to a variety of treatments based on increasing the alkalinity of the tissues such as vegetarian diet, the drinking of fresh fruit and vegetable juices, and dietary supplementation with alkaline minerals such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, cesium and rubidium.
To low of a PH and you are at risk for all sorts of illness.

A saw a woman on the Discovery channel who had a history of cancer in her family. All the women died before the age of 40 it was breat cancer though. At the age of 21 she made the choice to have her breats removed and have implants.

Do a search on Alkaline and cancer or PH and cancer and you will get lots of info. Eating right is the first step.

Re: Me and my family is at risk !

Yep. My local health food store carries the pack of strips of I think it's 36 for around $15. I have not tried the Whole Food Store yet but am suppose to go tomorrow and I will see if they have it threre. Walgreens might carry them too. I just have never checked there yet.

My neighbor bought a machine to make her own alkaline water. She gave me a bottle a little while ago to try and it was really good. Nothing compared to the bottle water that you can buy. The filter turns left instead of right to purifty the water. I thoght she was nuts till she made a bottle of it for me.

She learned about it when she went to VA hospital in Chicago. I haven't looked up the water yet on the internet but that's my next thing to do. It was good. She said it would give me a but of engery too and it did. SO weird. I have to research it more.

Re: Me and my family is at risk !

I went to the Whole Food Market today and I bought the test strips. 14 feet on a roll for $15, They had a few different kinds I just went with the kind that my neighbor has since she already used them. They have the alkaline pills too.

Re: Me and my family is at risk !

Ok this sucks but explains alot of my problems. I took my Ph level for the first time a few minutes ago and I am BELOW the normal is is around 7.34 and 7.40. I am only 5.5. So I went to the website that was on back of hte box which had more info and some of the problems that I am having are indigestion, weight gain, difficulty losing weight, frequent urination, (doc said I don't have an infection) and pre cancer cells in my cervix
To low ph can cause those symptoms and I have them.

EDIT: I didn't get the urine test I got the saliva test. You are suppose to do it upon rising in the morning and then 2 hours after you eat. I did it 2 hours after I ate. I will do it in the morning for the first time. I have a feeling that it might be lower.

Going to research more on this.
