Book Reviews of Alkalize or Die: Superior Health Through Proper Alkaline-Acid Balance
Book Review: Alkalize or Die by Theodore Baroody
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent work. It describes the fundamentalimbalance of the pH factor and the differential impact on a
whole host of disease processes. The ideal diet should contain
a fair amount of foods in the alkaline category. Too much
acidity has been associated with many chronic conditions and
diseases. The pH level may stabilize at approximately 5.5
to 7.0 on a scale of 0-14 with 0-7 being the acid foods
and 7 or more being the alkaline foods. Our daily diet
should consist of an optimal balance of the acid/alkaline
foods. The Baroody work describes this pH balance in considerable
detail. As such, it is a necessary part of the overall
nutritional program for both children and adults.
The standard diet of junk food tends to create a pH bias
which is acidic rather than a representative balance of
acid and alkaline food groups. This aspect is further developed
in the book. As such, Baroody's work is a valuable supplement
to your nutrition planning.
Book Review: Alkalize or Die: Superior Health Through Proper Alkaline-Acid Balance
Summary: 5 Stars
Thank you for the speedy delievery. I was so surprised that I recieved it so fast. The book is a must to have. People today would not have the sicknesses they have if they had a more alkaline diet which parasites and cancer cannot live in the body with a high alkaline diet. A high acidic diet is what causes most sicknesses because that is how parasites and cancer live and take over. The energy you will get is amazing. Enjoy!Book Review: Alkalizing Via Water
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I have tried to alkalize for many a year with no visible success. This book does an awesome job of outlining why we need to, and how we can accomplish this alkalizing. Most importantly the author describes how one might alkalize via water. I had never heard of this so I was intrigued. After researching the many Chinese and Korean knock offs we purchased the Japanese manufactured machine and within days noticed startling improvements. Thank you Dr. Baroody, if you had not included that chapter we would not be leading the healthier lives we do today!Book Review: An Adequate Introduction
Summary: 3 Stars
With the increasing amount of scientific studies concerning pH balance in the blood and enzymes in our diet, it is no wonder that more and more people are becoming curious about what is essentially causing the catastrophic plague of illness and disease found in modern day human beings. Mr. Baroody's book presents an introductory explanation and study of the body's alkalinity and how certain foods increase the alkalinity or acidity of the bloodstream. As more and more scientists are urging, his advice is to maintain a diet which creates an alkaline environment within the body. I agree with this advice. I have also found this book to be useful in determining which foods have an alkalizing effect on the body. Where this book is inadequate, however, is in balancing the combination of acid and alkaline forming foods in the equation that the author presents. Because he does not specify combining foods to fit this equation in terms of weight, the entire formula can be considered useless because it is not complete. For those of you who are searching for an introduction to alkalization, I recommend this book as a resource and not as a guide.Book Review: Average reader
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this book because it was highly recommended by a friend, but I got through the first few pages and felt like I was trying to read a different language. It was too scientific for me. I never picked it up again.
