i beleive some people have the natural ability to break down food better and a better ability to become more alkaline, this is why some people especially some negroes who eat whatever and are ripped also some whiteys have this ability. but some negroes on foreign islands already knew of this tactic
when the body is an acidic state from acidic foods the body just stores everything instead of metabolizing it. this is fact. so we have to buffer out everything we eat
our bodies want to maintain a certain ph , if something is too acidic we pull from our own resources to turn a food in our bodies more alkaline, but this takes away from our natural sources.

You're not going to bogart that joint you're smoking are you bro?

I'll use to adjust the ph on my tomato plants..
Might as well eat lime.

weed is pretty acidic and toxic/ i reccomend drinking 8 ounces of lemon juice to bring your alkaline levels up to par to a legend like me

Waddy, did you ever film that movie you were supposed to be in?

onlyme do you really weigh 400 pounds?
i mean seriously not to put you down but that is impressive to carry that much weight. i got up to 275 but i was forcefeeding
also since you are the master of history ,have you heard of the lemon juicing/alkanizing methods before because it has made a difference on my physique.
because also i was cleaning out this apartment of some islander negro and he had a picture on the wall of some religous sort but it was all black dudes like on an island praising some god but they were all lean a pretty big , perhaps they were liming up lemonizing everything they ate

yes the body wants to maintain proper ph so when we eat totally shit food or processed stuff we pull from sources in our body to make it more alkaline, this is FACT my legendary people!

Very true, you cannot put a price tag on this kind of information.

Very true, you cannot put a price tag on this kind of information.
i bet many do not know of the poverty that existed 30-40 years ago where blacks ate the mud/ clay from river beds and under bridges. the clay was very high alkaline! who knows where they got this idea but its fact, and it was well known in North Carolina. I bet many blacks do not even know there own history now days.

master documentation, legendary information
American Pictures exposed an indescribable misery within the borders of the "world's richest country." Some of the poorest citizens in this country were in fact eating soil out of hunger. This practice is mentioned in only one passage of the book but nevertheless remains an unforgettable sign of extreme poverty. In North Carolina, Holdt meets a professor in geophagia (soil eating) who describes how widespread the phenomenon is around Wilmington. Holdt himself never saw the soil eaters of North Carolina but when we asked him by email, he writes back that he did witness blacks around the Mississippi River eat clay from the riverbed.
Within this framework, soil eating is poverty and hunger's most extreme outpost. It is an activity that is charged with a strangely archaic quality where a lack is miraculously turned into a surplus. In his febrile state of hunger, the soil eater transforms the clay of the bed river into filling food. He is set within a hallucinogenic landscape where the very ground he walks on is transformed into nourishment.
For science, geophagia is a hard nut to crack. The phenomenon is located at the intersection of sociology, medicine, and religion, and studies of soil eating need a thoroughly interdisciplinary approach. The delineation and definition of the phenomenon itself follows an interestingly complicated path. First and foremost, science has to define what soil is. The researcher N. C. Bradey makes an attempt in The Nature and Properties of Soil (1974):
A collection of natural bodies which has been synthesized in profile form from a variable mixture of broken and weathered minerals and decaying matter, which covers the earth in a thin layer, and which supplies, when containing the proper amounts of air and water, mechanical support and sustenance for plants.
The next step is to define how the soil will enter the digestive tract. Since soil can be airborne, people who breathe through their mouths can breathe in soil. This is especially relevant in the case of those who live in deserts. The distinction is therefore made between inhaling soil and ingesting it.
Conscious ingestion is assigned the term "pica" in standard medical reference books.1 Pica is defined as "a drive toward eating anything that is not a food substance, especially clay."2 Some researchers narrow this definition and speak instead of "a perversion of the appetite."3 Pica is said, for example, to affect pregnant women who can get a sudden and irresistible urge to eat mortar, rubber tires, shavings, or soil. Already here, we see that documented medical cases have mixed with myths and oral stories. Pica is an umbrella term for nine distinct scenarios, each based on one substance that is ingested manically. Geophagia is specifically about soil. The term "pica" is contradictory because, in addition to a "perversion of the appetite," the concept also refers to the unwitting ingestion of soil as well as ritual and traditional soil eating.
Anemia and the lack of iron have been proposed as causes of geophagia. But treatments with minerals and placebos has not often resulted in patients refraining from ingesting soil. Some researchers have claimed that iron deficiency and anemia are in fact the result of soil ingestion. Other factions within geophagia research point to developmental disturbances and a compulsive persistence of infantile hand to mouth behavior as the explanation of geophagia. The habit of eating soil is often attributed to the poorest regions of the world. But it is not clear if starvation can fully account for geophagia. It looks as though in some countries, geophagia is part of a cultural pattern among certain groups. In Ghana, for example, clay is sold as medication, and in Guatemala, clay briquettes with cathedral designs on them are sold to pregnant mothers. What makes geophagia even more complicated is that clay can in fact have a benign effect on different kinds of stomach problems and poisonings. In the US, the majority of geophagia cases have been among the poor black population in the south, but there have also been cases in New York City. Two different researchers (W. H. Crosby and R. P. Wedeen) propose the surprising theory that soil eating can no longer be connected to specific socioeconomic factors but has spread to a larger, less definable segment of the northern urban population in the US.
In 1958, a global study of geophagia titled Geophagical Customs was presented by Swedish researchers Anell and Lagerkrantz. Their book presents another account of soil eating's relation to lack of minerals and to poverty. Their four categories of soil eating do include hunger as one factor but the other three address soil as a spice and as a delicacy; as a medicine; and as the substance of ritual ingestion. Anell and Lagerkrantz claimed that in Africa specially, geophagia was widespread and fulfilled a variety of functions. It is thought to cure syphilis and diarrhea; in some regions, young girls eat soil at the onset of puberty; pregnant women eat soil to guarantee a painless birth and dark skin for the child. In certain areas, criminals are forced to eat soil. The sacred earth is supposed to administer justice—if the condemned criminal is in fact guilty, he will fall sick or go mad.
But what is at stake in which perspective on a phenomenon (soil eating, in this case) becomes dominant? Why argue at all about such definitions? The answer is that the "problem" will be handled in very different ways based on which point of view gains support.
From the biologistic point of view, a diagnosed disease means a whole chain of preventive measures and consequences. The phenomenon is placed within a clinical universe. Traditions, rites, and psychological factors are transformed into the consequences of physical disturbances. If an extreme socio-anthropological point of view dominates, the corporeal and the biological will be either "overcome" or integrated within culture, myths, rites, and traditions. The behavior will be stamped as cultural. From a third perspective—which we could call Jacob Holdt's perspective—the entire phenomenon can be reduced to hunger, which is itself a result of poverty. Social existence determines all of a person's existence. Eating soil—in a strange way a very basic activity—eludes all these definitions. It is the hungry's last desperate attempt at assuaging their hunger. At the same time, extreme hunger does not automatically trigger a reflex to eat soil. In descriptions of the origins of geophagia, there is a complicated weave of sociology (traditions, rites), psychology (hand to mouth behavior), politics (poverty), and biologism (manifestation of deficiency).4 We are in the space where culture and disease overlap.
While walking through the streets of Johannesburg last year, doctors Alexander Woywodt and Akos Kiss were surprised to find small briquettes of red soil being sold among food items at the market. The soil was bought by young women as natural medicine. They wrote a report in a medical journal.5 In the report, they want to alert South African doctors that geophagia is widespread in the region. They write that this anomaly—if it is an anomaly—cannot be understood from the explanatory perspectives offered: extreme poverty, culturally sanctioned behavior, or eating disorder.
But the questions can never be answered. The researchers go out on the streets. They discover something astounding: humans are engaging in unusual activities. There are people out there eating soil. They alert their colleagues but cannot explain it. The diagnosis vaporizes. Geophagia slides back into myth.

i would wish one day to get paid to seek out such information and share it with all of you, i will travel to the most poverty wrecked towns even where slaves still exist today and there methods and practices going on right now!
there are many informations that the goverment doesnt want to tell you. dirt is the most healthy thing to alkanize your body. it is natural we came from dirt....just like we have organs we are simply a small organ or the earth and the planets are organs of a GREATER celestial body!

Why would you want to add lemon (which has a low pH) to food, when you're claiming that the food needs to be more alkaline?

I'm with you on this, Hedge.
Naturopaths believe that it leaves behind an "alkaline ash" residue once metabolised. Which makes absolutely no sense. You are adding excess H+ ions, how can that be alkaline?

what people do not understand is that lemon juice is acidic when not in the body, but when digested it is VERY high Alkaline. odd yes, but very true. the aztecs beleived it would get rid of all bodyfat. i am seeing this work right now. im drinking about 1.5 liters of lemon juice a day.
what saddens me is it seems i have to do all the research on these types of oddities, am i the only one with a creative knack on this whole internet board? please lets leave the bashing at the door, i know some of you are in the know but choose to keep quiet

lean islander negros
eating river clay/soil to stay alkalyne
aztecs trying to cut body fat
hahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahhaa DW is a true legend

Damn, i had totally overlooked those foreign island negros and their pagan gods.
I think there we will find the key to ultimate alkalinity!
Thank you DW for enlightening us.

I believe that true search engine enlightenment is only possible through uninhibited search phrase combinations.
Those combinations, my friend, are available only to those who have peeled back the layers of repression & fear.Legendary information can only be found with true, creative talent.
And you do it all for the benefit of mankind, or at least Getbig readers.

weed is pretty acidic and toxic/ i reccomend drinking 8 ounces of lemon juice to bring your alkaline levels up to par to a legend like me
lemon juice is acidic as hell. you are retarded.

How to Easily Get an Alkaline Body 1/5
You may have heard people talking about the fact that an acidic body is harmful to your health.
They are right!
However, don’t fall prey to those expensive potions and pills claiming to be able to alkalinize your body (the opposite of acidifying).
Alkalinizing your body is very simple indeed.
One of the most effective ways, is to start your day with freshly squeezed lemon juice.
I know what you’re thinking. Did she say lemon juice? Yes, lemon juice.
Most people realize lemon juice is very acidic in nature.
Don’t worry, it won’t cause a stomachache or make your body more acidic.
On the contrary, the high level of acidity in lemons will trigger an alkalinizing response from your body.
You can further this approach by eating more cucumbers and staying away from foods such as sugar which is a terrible culprit when it comes to an acidic body.
One other effective method is drinking alkaline water. How do you make this?
Simple, just get a container of water and add a few lemon and cucumber slices to it and drink it throughout the day.
Keeping your body alkalinized (a balanced PH) is one of the keys to a long and healthy life.
Next month we will learn more tips on how to get and keep a healthy PH

There are a lot of people who eat clay instead of vitamin tablets....
Absorption is very high with clay. Your body absorbs minerals and other nutrients better from clay...
