Scientists make sense, right? Well....

Here's a recent quote from Robert Gillies, professor of biochemistry, physiology and radiology at the University of Arizona who studies the acidity of tumors.

He scoffs at the claim that acid buildup is a growing threat to public health. Many tumors are, in fact, acidic, he says, but they aren't fueled by coffee or soda or tap water, he says. They make the acid themselves. And, he adds, they aren't going to be deterred by a glass of alkaline water. Nosirree!

So... Mr Gillies.. tumours cause their own acid but drinking alkaline water won't help a system full of tumour-created acid. Is that what you are saying?

And let me get this right.. you are saying that acid buildup isn't a threat to public health? Ever heard of Gout? Arthritis? Cardiovascular damage, including the constriction of blood vessels and the reduction of oxygen, Weight gain, obesity and diabetes, Bladder and kidney conditions, including kidney stones, Immune deficiency....

• Acceleration of free radical damage, possibly contributing to cancerous mutations.
• Hormone concerns.
• Premature aging.
• Osteoporosis; weak, brittle bones, hip fractures and bone spurs.
• Joint pain, aching muscles and lactic acid buildup.
• Low energy and chronic fatigue.
• Slow digestion and elimination.
• Yeast/fungal overgrowth.

just wondering.... from a layman's point of view.
