Thanks, but eating lots of organic fruits including grapes, will do the same thing, prevent cancer. Cancer cannot grow in an alkaline body, only acidic.
great news for rats. They have beaten cancer for the umpteenth time!
Like, *PING*, dude and dude-ette.
And apricot seeds are the “active” ingredient in the mother of all cancer quackery, Laetrille.
Then how do you explain cancers in people who only eat fruits and vegetables?
Can you explain this? How does a body become acidic exactly.
I think she is talking abou yin yang foods, I hope she responds I am wondering too. This is why I eat pickled beets, sauekraut and pickles in the wintertime plus fruits. Otherwise my diet is way too much cooked foods especuially in the winter. As I recall that makes the body acidic.
Organic Corn and raspberries have over 50% more anti oxidents then conventionally grown crops. It is believed the plants produce more of these compounds to aid them in fighting off pests and aid them in competing against competition from weeds.
But I am sure you know that.
Prediction: Sales of Grape Seed Extract supplement, in capsule or tablet form, will soar 2000 percent for the first 30 days of 2009.
Prediction: It won’t make a damn bit of difference for the people who take it for a while, then figure “well, that oughta do it.”
“How does a body become acidic exactly”
Everything you eat has residual components. The components may be either acidic or alkaline. Eating too much of one or the other can change the pH of body fluids and can be measured in urine.
Some medical conditions and therapies also create excess acidity in the tissues. Diabetics, for example, can have a problem with acidosis.
It doesn't. The body carefully regulates pH. The quackery about body acidity goes back at 100 years.
I have heard forward-thinking doctors say that eating organic grapes with the seeds still in them, and eating the seeds, will be very healthful.
Seedless grapes?
I enjoy my grape seed extract in liquid form with some alcohol added for taste- it’s this new fangled stuff known as wine.
Thanks for the ping. Happy New Year!
Some WAG just added red wine to the keywords...
