Alkalize Or Die is the dramatic title of an interesting book by Theodore Baroody (see Amazon's description and reviews here). The concept of "alkalizing" the body is becoming a popular notion in alternative medicine.
Russell Jaffe, MD, PhD, is a noted physician, researcher, and lecturer and, with Dr. Baroody, is also an outspoken proponent of keeping the body alkaline. With the typical American diet, there is an excess of acid produced in the body tissues when the food is assimilated. According to many experts, this acidic condition of the body is linked with fatigue, illness and pain. Some are convinced that nearly all illnesses are at least partly related to an acidic condition. The body tissues are meant to work best within a narrow, slightly alkaline range (pH7.35-7.55).

- Stress
- Acid-forming diet
- Toxins (or other metabolites that are toxic)
- Immune reactions
Alkalizing the body can be accomplished by following a program based on foods that are primarily alkaline forming. Good books on this topic are Alkalize or Die by Theodore Baroody and The pH Miracle by Robert O. Young.
My health minded dentist, Dr. Larry Bowden, speaks often of the significant role played by acid/alkaline balance in the body. Dr. Bowden uses high quality, bio-compatible dental materials. Click here to learn more about Dr. Bowden's dental practice in
