BINGO!

at least somebody here has a damn clue!

the acid side of chemistry damages cells, and base chemistry is essential is for cells to regenerate. it's really freaking simple!

true health will never be attained if one eats according to the FDA's food guide pyramid. then when one health get's compromised (due to acidity) they can go get some FDA approved drugs. it's only the most lucrative industry on the planet!

What exactly is true health compared to normal health?

would you mind backing this stuff up with science? the only place I see this
kind of stuff is on websites pushing bad fad diets that do nothing to improve
your health. unless I look in places like this

just do an experiment yourself. put some acid on your skin. it burns don't it? acids damage cells, it's common sense.

every piece of food you put in your mouth is going to fall somewhere on the ph scale. and there's only 2 sides to chemistry!

the blood NEEDS to be kept around 7.4 ph

---

Go stick your hand in a super base, something like Butyl Lithium or Sodium Hydride, and tell me that doesn't burn and damage your cells. It's common sense.

---

there's no such thing as super base . base chemistry is the middle of the ph scale! it won't ever burn! extreme alkaline like 13ph will...of course! i'm not talking about extreme alkaline foods bro! name me some fruits that are that extreme?

edit: nobody is going to consume shit like draino. it don't take very much acidity to bring the ph below the base range. that's the problem, getting below that range. do you know what the pancreas has to produce to digest animal proteins? hydrocloric acid! this normally isn't an issue either, except people consume too many of these foods. some people eat meat every single day, and this doe's cause an issue over time.

In chemistry, a superbase is an extremely strong base, that is a compound that has a high affinity for protons. Hydroxide ion is the strongest base possible in aqueous solutions, but bases exist with much greater strengths than can exist in water. Such bases are valuable in organic synthesis and are fundamental to physical organic chemistry. Superbases have been described and used since the 1850s.[1] Reactions involving superbases often require special techniques since they are destroyed by water and atmospheric carbon dioxide as well as oxygen. Inert atmosphere techniques and low temperatures minimize these side reactions. Superbases also have a corrosive effect.

nope alkaline and basic are synonymous, base is the noun whereas the former two are adjectives.

i think i've seen you post about chemistry before. i'm not a chemist, so i will concede you guy's this. i've always been under the impression that base was just a certain range of alkalinity.

i apologize to pris and the vapor. thanks for teaching me something new.

now this is all just about how a certain term is used. a technicality if you will. it does absolutely nothing at all to change my argument.

this is quite misleading. living longer does not mean we are living to see older ages. MANY babies (and mothers) used to die during childbirth until more recent years. that's really the only improvement. if they weren't in the statistics you see something much different.

edit: just go look at the obituaries

so let me get this straight, you think modern humans are very healthy?
