Dear friend,
My name is Dr. Patrick James, and I’ve been practicing medicine for nearly
30 years now, with particular experience in the field of venereal diseases, but
also with a strong confidence in naturopathy. It’s so often that I come across
people who have been seriously affected by Chlamydia - mostly couples
suffering infertility – and for what? Chlamydia is such an easy to infection to
treat, but there are so many misconceptions about it, and the unfortunate
thing is, most people who are suffering from the condition don’t even know
they have it.
So I decided to write a book with the title “The Essential Guide to Cure
Chlamydia” – to share my knowledge with as many people as I could, and
dispel confusion by bridging the gap between conventional treatments,
natural remedies, and all things in between.
Warm Regards,
Dr. Patrick James

What is Chlamydia?
Chlamydia infection is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) in
humans caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. “Trachomatis” is
derived from ancient Greek terminology and means “harsh”.
Symptoms are usually mild and tend to go unnoticed – until serious damage
occurs. That is why chlamydia is aptly known as the silent disease. Chlamydia
is found only in humans, and it is the 8th most common sexually transmitted
disease reported in the United States, with over 2 million people between
the ages of 14 to 39 infected every year. In women the infection can spread
from the cervix to the uterus and to the fallopian tubes.
Very often women are re-infected because they are unaware that they have
the disease or their partners have not been treated. If left untreated,
chlamydia can damage a woman’s reproductive system and lead to
infertility, as well as a multitude of other health problems.

Causes of Chlamydia
Chlamydia may be transmitted in the following ways:
● Through sexual contact with an infected person during vaginal, anal or oral
sex
● Through sexual contact with a number of sexual partners
● From an infected mother to her baby during childbirth – babies may
develop pneumonia or serious eye infections such as conjunctivitis Help for
Chlamydia

Complications
A number of serious health complications may result from chlamydia and
these include:
 œ Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
PID refers to infection of the uterus (womb), fallopian tubes (tubes that carry
eggs from the ovaries to the uterus) and other reproductive organs that
causes symptoms such as lower abdominal pain. PID can damage the
fallopian tubes and tissues in and near the uterus and ovaries. PID can lead
to serious consequences including infertility, ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy
in the fallopian tube or elsewhere outside of the womb), abscess formation,
and chronic pelvic pain.
6
www.banishchlamydia.com
 œ An ectopic pregnancy
Ectopic means "in the wrong place", so it's a pregnancy that develops outside
the womb. It happens in approximately one in every 100 pregnancies. Most
ectopic pregnancies (95 per cent) implant in one of the fallopian tubes, which
is why it is also known as a tubal pregnancy. As the pregnancy grows, it
causes pain and bleeding and, if not recognized, the tube can rupture,
causing internal bleeding. This is a medical emergency and can be fatal.
The pregnancy itself never survives - it can't be moved to the womb - it has
to be completely removed.

● Male infertility
About 35% of the sperm from infected men has fragmented DNA, compared
with only 11% of the sperm of healthy men. The infected men also had a
higher percentage of malformed and immobile sperm than their control
counterparts.
● Eye damage
Chlamydia causes several different types
of eye disease. Trachoma, caused by
certain
subtypes
of
chlamydia
trachomatis, affects more than 8 million
people worldwide and is the leading cause
of infectious blindness in the world.
Chlamydia trachomatis also causes
conjunctivitis,
reddening
and
inflammation of the conjunctiva, the tissue that lines the eye and lower
eyelid, in 2 percent of people with genital chlamydia infection. Twenty
percent of all acute cases of neonatal and adult inclusion conjunctivitis are
caused by chlamydia trachomatis.
● Joint inflammation in some men
8
www.banishchlamydia.com
Detection
The diagnosis of chlamydia is based on your symptoms, medical history and
certain laboratory tests may be performed. Tests for both men and women
include urine samples to be tested for the presence of bacteria. A swab test
may also be performed for women (a swab taken from inside the vagina).
Symptoms
At least 70-80% of infected people do not experience any symptoms of
Chlamydia. Symptoms usually occur within 1 to 3 weeks of exposure.
Women may experience symptoms of:







Abnormal vaginal discharge
Burning sensation when urinating
Bleeding after sexual activity or between menstrual periods
Lower abdominal pain
Low back pain
Nausea
Fever
Men may experience symptoms of:
 Discharge from penis
 Burning sensation when urinating
 Burning and itching around the opening of the penis or inflammation or
swelling in the testicles

How to Prevent Chlamydia Infection
A number of preventative measures can be taken to minimize your risk of
getting chlamydia and these include:
 Always use condoms to protect yourself from any type of sex to lower your
risk of chlamydia and other STD’s. Use a latex male condom or a female
polyurethane condom for vaginal sex and for anal sex, use a latex male
condom. For oral sex, use a dental dam.
 Abstain from sexual intercourse – this is obviously the best way to prevent
the chlamydia infection
 Avoid having sex with more than one sexual partner at a time because the
more partners you have will increase your risk of chlamydia
 Get to know your partner first before having sexual intercourse with him or
her and find out whether they have been tested for STD’s before you have
sex with them
 Practice fidelity, faithfulness and commitment by having a sexual
relationship with one person only and no one else!
 Educate yourself about chlamydia and STD’s by speaking to your doctor and
learning the symptoms
 Protect yourself by getting tested regularly for chlamydia and STD’s

Sugar Detox Diet by Diane Sanfilippo

INTRODUCTION
Chronic disease affects half of all Americans and accounts for 84 percent of our
$3.8 trillion health care bill. This would be depressing except for one simple
fact: Most of these chronic illnesses are lifestyle-related diseases. That means
they’re preventable, treatable and often even reversible through changes in
lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and stress.
More specifically, the food we eat (or don’t eat) is the single biggest driver of
chronic illness – everything from heart disease to diabetes, cancer to
dementia, arthritis to autoimmunity, and more.
Simply put, food can cause disease, but it also can cure disease.
That’s what the Padillas learned when they did The 10-Day Detox Diet (which
they continued for 40 days) and moved on to The Blood Sugar Solution. After
seven days Daniel Padilla was out of pain after suffering for 15 years on 15
different medications. After 40 days he was off his meds and felt amazing. And
after one year he and his wife, Rebecca, had lost over 160 pounds.
Daniel didn’t need one diet for his rheumatoid arthritis, another for his high
blood pressure, and yet another for his migraines. He simply needed real food
– anti-inflammatory food, detoxifying food, blood-sugar-balancing food, in
other words, The 10-Day Detox Diet.

Breakfast
Detox Shake
Make a clean shake using unsweetened almond, rice or coconut milk. Tip: Add
in a healthy serving of avocado or almond butter. For extra flavor add in fresh
or frozen organic berries or a dash of stevia.
Lunch
The Detox Diet
Prepare a hearty solid meal from the Detox Diet. Get the most out of it by
including dark greens, healthy fats, and quality protein.
Dinner
The Detox Diet
Prepare a hearty solid meal from the Detox Diet. Focus on a slightly lighter
meal for dinner. Entree-sized salads are great. See our meal plan for
inspiration.
DETOX DIET
Foods to include and exclude during
your Clean Detox
The Detox Diet is the foundation of the entire Clean Detox. It’s a set dietary list
designed to avoid the major foods that cause allergies, sensitivities, and
digestive problems.
Here is a quick snapshot of the major foods you’ll eat and not eat on the Clean
Detox:
AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE: THE SOLUTION
How The 10-Day Detox Diet Can Help
How do you reduce inflammation? Start with the food you eat. A major source
of inflammation is processed food, including sugar, flour and low-quality
vegetable oils. Gluten, dairy, grains, and beans are often a trigger for
autoimmunity. Clearing out all these foods for 10 days (and longer if it is
helping) can help reset your system.
The 10-Day Detox Diet is naturally anti-inflammatory because it removes these
foods and increases all of the wonderful anti-inflammatory nutrients found in
so many whole foods.
The 10-Day Detox Diet will help you dial down inflammation and provide a
solid foundation for healing from autoimmunity. Simply by cooking from the
recipes in my cookbook and following The 10-Day Detox Diet program, you will
address most of the below 15 Steps to Reverse Autoimmune Disease. Here are
the principles I use to get to the root of autoimmunity:
15 Steps to Reverse Autoimmune Disease
1. Cut out the flour and sugar because these are inflammatory foods.
2. Get rid of the gluten. We know gluten can be a trigger for autoimmune
disease and can contribute to a leaky gut.
3. Eat the right fats. Increase your intake of anti-inflammatory foods rich in
omega-3 fats, including cold water fish, grass-fed beef, walnuts, chia seeds, flax
seeds and hemp seeds.
4. Eat the rainbow. Choose a variety of colorful non-starchy vegetables and
berries every day. These foods are packed with phytonutrients.
5. Check for hidden food allergens with food sensitivity testing. The 10-Day
Detox Diet is designed to eliminate most food allergens.
6. Steer clear of non-organic soy. Some people with autoimmune conditions
feel better removing soy. Others can moderately tolerate whole forms of soy
like tempeh or tofu. You may want to experiment with soy to see how it affects
you. Always opt for non-GMO soy.
7. Keep your intake of nightshades (tomato, eggplant, peppers, etc.) low to
moderate in order to lessen the potential for an autoimmune reaction.
8. Take supplements (see “WHAT TO TAKE: Supplements” below for exactly
which products to take) to help boost levels of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D,
vitamin C, zinc, magnesium, probiotics, curcumin, and antioxidants – all of
which are instrumental in calming down an overactive immune system.
9. Exercise is a natural anti-inflammatory. Move your body regularly and
appropriately for your physiology.
10. Manage your stress. Practice deep relaxation through yoga, breathwork,
biofeedback, or massage because stress worsens the immune response.
11. Check for hidden infections like yeast, viruses, bacteria, and Lyme with the
help of a doctor and treat them.
12. Get checked for heavy metal toxicity. Mercury and other metals can trigger
autoimmunity.
13. Fix your gut by working with a Functional Medicine practitioner.
14. Tell your doctor about Functional Medicine, encourage him or her to get
trained, or buy them a Textbook of Functional Medicine as a holiday present.
Go to www.functionalmedicine.org for more information.
15. See my guide on How to Work With Your Doctor To Get What You Need to
learn what tests you need and how to get them.
Remember, our bodies are not defective. You can thrive and be healthy by
paying attention to a few natural laws of biology. You don’t need drugs to
survive!

THE 10–DAY DETOX DIET ROADMAP
Welcome to The 10-Day Detox Diet! I’m so glad you are ready to take back your
health and applaud you for jumping on board. If you are curious about the role
your food choices play in your health, then you are on the right track. I have
spent my career researching the effect of food on health, and the evidence is
clear that food is medicine and what you put on your fork has everything to do
with how you look and feel! The 10-Day Detox Diet is about rethinking your
approach to food, and helping you understand that food is way more than just
calories, it is information. In fact it is the most powerful medicine to heal and
achieve an ideal weight. That is if you choose the right information. And that is
what The 10-Day Diet Diet is all about. It promotes healthy, sustainable weight
loss and lifelong health and wellness. I created this Roadmap as a companion to
The 10-Day Detox Diet Cookbook. It is meant to be a quick reference sheet to
help you become comfortable with the healthy, wholesome and delicious
ingredients you will be using for the next 10 days. It provides a clear guide to
portion size and to the frequency of your meals and snacks. I hope this Roadmap
helps you get started on your journey and that it comes in handy when you need
a quick reminder that you can do this! Enjoy the ride!
ABOUT THE 10–DAY DETOX DIET
The 10-Day Detox Diet was created so I could teach you how easy, fast and
delicious it can be to lose weight and create health. Just follow this scientifically
proven program, and in 10 days not only can you lose up to 10 pounds, but you
can also put an end to chronic health problems including type 2 diabetes,
asthma, joint pain, digestive problems, autoimmune disease, headaches, brain
fog, allergies, acne, eczema and even sexual dysfunction. How is that possible?
Because what makes you sick makes you fat, and what makes you fat makes you
sick. It’s all connected. You know when your computer freezes up? What do you
do? You reboot. Well, the 10-Day Detox Diet does the same thing for your
metabolism—by following my scientifically proven diet and lifestyle practices,
we can reset your metabolism to function as it was designed to. You’ll lose
weight without going hungry, and clear up a whole list of health symptoms
without fad diets or dangerous pills. And all it takes is 10 days.
IT’S NOT HOW MUCH YOU EAT, IT’S WHAT!
What if everything you ever learned about weight loss was wrong? What if losing
weight has nothing to do with calories— counting them or cutting them out by
sheer willpower? What if, in fact, most health professionals have been giving
you the wrong advice—advice that has been making you fat and sick?
Could it be we have had it all wrong? Yes! There has been one fatal flaw in our
thinking that the amount of calories we eat is more significant to weight
management than the quality of those calories. It’s true that, in a vacuum, all
calories are the same. A thousand calories of soda and a thousand calories of
broccoli burned in a laboratory will release the same amount of energy. But all
bets are off when you actually consume the soda or the broccoli. These foods
trigger very different biochemical responses in the body—different hormones,
neurotransmitters and immune messengers. The same amount of calories has a
profoundly different effect on the body. Eating a high-carb, low-fat diet slows
down your metabolism. If you restrict your calories, you will end up triggering
very ancient biological adaptions that protect us from starvation. You will slow
your metabolism and get a lot hungrier. Don’t worry about how much you eat,
because you will never be able to control that. Rather, focus on what you eat—
the quality of the food and the composition (high in fiber, good quality protein
and fat, low in starch and sugar). When you do, you won’t be hungry and your
body will shift from fat storage mode to fat burning mode. And, you will prevent
most chronic disease—including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer and
dementia.
MY EXCLUSIVE APPROACH
My 10–Day Detox Diet program and companion cookbook will show you what
food to eat, the proper portion sizes to enjoy and the important lifestyle
practices to incorporate into your daily routine so you melt away the fat and
restore health to your whole body, mind and spirit. I use the science and
principles of Functional Medicine, which is the future of medicine–available
now. It seeks to identify and address the root causes of disease, and views the
body as one integrated system, not a collection of independent organs divided
up by medical specialties. It treats the whole system, not just the symptoms.
Through my Functional Medicine training, I was taught to treat the patient, not
the disease. By shifting the traditional disease-centered practice of medicine to
a patient-centered approach, Functional Medicine practitioners address the
whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. We look at the interactions
among genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term
health and complex, chronic disease. In this way, Functional Medicine supports
the unique expression of health and vitality for each individual. While each of
you is biologically unique, all of us share common foundations comprising an
optimal functioning system. I’ve based this program off of specific
commonalities I’ve observed from years of clinical practice and research and
made them available to you in my systematic, easy-to-follow 10–Day Detox Diet.

5 TIPS TO ELIMINATE BELLY FAT
Did you know that belly fat is not just annoying but also potentially
very hazardous to your health? It not only causes belly bulge, love
handles, and bloat – it also can lead to serious diseases including heart
disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and strokes. Belly fat is
not just there holding up your pants. It is an active organ, filled with
cells called adipocytes that release unwanted hormones, brain
chemicals and inflammatory signals. These chemical messengers
make you hungry, slow your metabolism and promote fat storage,
especially more belly fat. It sabotages any effort to lose weight or get
healthy. The good news is that I am about to share 5 fast fixes to
quickly reduce your belly fat and possibly save your life. My book, The
Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet and the 150 recipes in The 10
Day Detox Diet Cookbook are designed to be a foolproof, step-by-step
plan to help you achieve this goal. Here’s a quick start guide to getting
to the root of your weight and health problems.
5 TIPS TO ELIMINATE BELLY FAT FAST:
1. Go cold turkey and eliminate all sugars from your diet for 10 days.
Scan ingredient labels for hidden names of sugar so you can be sure to avoid it
at all costs. Look for these sugars in disguise and “just say no” for 10 days (if you
find yourself saying “but what about” or “can I just have” then you are likely
addicted to sugar and carbs and it is even more reason to go cold turkey and
reclaim your hormones, brain chemistry and metabolism. Stop sugar or sugar
substitutes by ANY name including agave nectar, high fructose corn syrup, cane
syrup, dextrose, fructose, honey, invert sugar (a mixture of glucose and
fructose), maltodextrin, malt syrup, maple syrup, raw sugar, sucrose, turbinado
sugar, rice syrup, sorbitol, mannitol, aspartame and yes, even stevia. There are
more…but these are the main ones to watch for and avoid for at least 10 days.
2. Switch your metabolism into fat-fighting mode.
Engage your parasympathetic nervous system to burn fat. Stress makes you fat
and relaxing makes you thin. When you deeply relax, your body switches to fat
burning and away from fat storage. And it’s easy to do. As easy as breathing. Try
practicing deep relaxation for 20 minutes daily or simply focus on deep
breathing by doing my Take 5 Deep Breathing activity 3 to 5 times daily. It’s
simple. Take five slow deep breaths in to the count of five and out to the count
of five, and repeat it five times. And then try it when you wake up, before every
meal, and at bedtime.
3. Trick your body.
Mix up your routines to keep your body guessing! When you fall into a rut, your
body gets used to it and your metabolism starts to slow. To keep your
metabolism running smoothly, switch up your daily exercise routine. Keep it new
and exciting – one day do interval bike riding, the next day, take a yoga class.
And incorporate a variety of whole, fresh foods into your diet. Eating the same
thing every day not only bores your taste buds but also contributes to a slow
metabolism!
4. Make healthy fat your friend, not your foe.
Eat a serving or two of healthy fats (avocado, hemp seeds, flaxseeds, chia seeds,
almonds, sardines, salmon, trout, grass-fed meat, omega 3 eggs, olives, coconut
oil, tahini, etc.) with every meal to fuel your body. These are antiinflammatory
fats, which mean they put out the smoldering fires in your system preventing
you from burning fat. They also keep you from being hungry, speed up your
metabolism and increase fat burning. Yes, it’s true. Fat is not a four letter word.
In fact, fat is key to helping your body lose belly fat and lose weight.
5. Restore nutrient deficiencies.
Our society is overfed and undernourished. Being deficient in key minerals (such
as magnesium, selenium, zinc, calcium, and potassium), vitamins (like D3, B6,
B12 and folate) and essential fatty acids can slow down your metabolic function
and roadblock your weight loss. You need nutrients to run your metabolism, so
make sure you eat a whole foods diet and supplement with high-quality
nutritional supplements, as needed.

What to Do: Other lifestyle factors
Exercise
I encourage 30 to 45 minutes of cardiovascular exercise at least six times a
week.
You may try interval training (a good example is “wind sprints,” which are
described in The Blood Sugar Solution) if you are feeling stronger. I also
encourage strength training to build muscle and reduce body fat composition.
Exercise is not a luxury. It’s a necessity when it comes to preventing almost all
chronic disease, from heart disease to cancer, from dementia to diabetes, from
osteoporosis to osteoarthritis. You cannot age successfully without it. It is
simply how we are designed.
Reduce Stress
Stress alone can cause many chronic diseases. Take a heart attack. Stress often
triggers a cascade of events that cause a heart attack by creating inflammation,
causing high blood pressure, and even making your blood more likely to clot.
Finding ways to manage stress and to relax is essential for dealing with nearly
all chronic health conditions.
Learn to reduce stress by doing regular relaxation exercises such as yoga, tai
chi, meditation, breathing, guided imagery, or whatever it takes to engage the
relaxation nervous system, which can lower your inflammation and blood
sugar levels as well as increase metabolism and help with your overall health.
Try classes, buy CDs (you can try my Ultra Calm audio program), try therapy, or
just go out and have fun. Do whatever it takes to hit the pause button on a
daily basis and maintain your health.
Sleep
I used to think that “MD” stood for “medical deity” and meant I didn’t have to
follow the same sleep rules as every other human being. I stayed up late
working long shifts in the emergency room, ignoring the demands of my body.
It wasn’t until I learned that shift work leads to a shortened life expectancy
that I quit.
Unfortunately, our lives are infiltrated with constant stimuli that keep us
revved up until the moment we go to bed. It’s no wonder so many of us have
trouble getting restful sleep.
Instead of pushing through until your head hits the pillow, try to take a little
“holiday” in the two hours before bed. Create a sleep ritual – a special set of
little things you do before bed – in order to guide your body into a deep,
healing sleep.
Here are some tips on how to restore your natural sleep rhythm. It may take
weeks or months, but using these tools in a coordinated way will eventually
reset your biological rhythms:
• Practice the regular rhythms of sleep. Go to bed and wake up at the same
time each day.
• Use your bed for sleep and romance only, not for television or even reading.
• Create an aesthetic environment that encourages sleep. Use serene and
restful colors and eliminate clutter and distraction.
• Create total darkness and quiet. Consider using eyeshades and earplugs.
• Avoid caffeine.
• Avoid alcohol. It may help you get to sleep initially, but it causes
interruptions throughout the night, resulting in poor-quality sleep.
• Get at least 20 minutes exposure to daylight daily. The light from the sun
enters your eyes and triggers your brain to release specific chemicals and
hormones like melatonin that are vital to healthy sleep, mood, and aging.
• Eat no later than three hours before bed. Eating a heavy meal prior to bed
will lead to a bad night’s sleep.
• Don’t exercise vigorously after dinner. It excites the body and makes it more
difficult to get to sleep.
• Write your worries down. One hour before bed, write down the things that
are causing you anxiety and make your to-do list for the next day to reduce
your worry. It will free up your mind and energy to move into deep and restful
sleep.
• Take a hot salt/soda aromatherapy bath. Raising your body temperature
before bed helps to induce sleep. A hot bath also relaxes your muscles and
reduces tension physically and psychically. By adding 1 to 1 ½ cups Epsom salt
(magnesium sulfate) and 1 to 1 ½ cups baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to
your bath, you will gain the benefits of magnesium absorbed through your skin
and the alkaline-balancing effects of the baking soda, both of which help with
sleep.
• Get a massage or stretch before bed. This helps relax the body, making it
easier to fall asleep.
• Warm your middle. This raises your core temperature and helps trigger the
proper chemistry for sleep. A hot-water bottle, heating pad – or a warm body –
can do the trick.
• Avoid medications that interfere with sleep. These include sedatives (which
are used to treat insomnia, but ultimately lead to dependence and disruption
of normal sleep rhythms), antihistamines, stimulants, cold medication,
steroids, and headache medication that contains caffeine.
• Use herbal therapies. Try 200 mg of passionflower, or 320 mg to 480 mg of
valerian root extract standardized to 0.2 percent valerenic acid one hour
before bed.
• Take 200 mg to 400 mg of magnesium citrate or glycinate before bed. This
relaxes the nervous system and muscles.
• Other supplements and herbs can be helpful in getting some shuteye. Try
calcium, theanine (an amino acid from green tea), GABA, 5-HTP, melatonin,
and magnolia. (I like a product called Kavinace UltraPM that has a form of
GABA, melatonin, and 5-HTP all in one. It works well for many of my patients.)
• Try 1 mg to 3 mg of melatonin at night, which can help stabilize your sleep
rhythms.
• Get a relaxation, meditation or guided imagery CD. Any of these may help
you get to sleep.

FOREWORD
Acidification in the body comes as a result of THREE primary things:
1. Eating too many acidifying foods which create an acid ash in your body.
This is where proper diet comes in. By eating a diet of 80% alkalizing foods,
you’ll eliminate the production of excess acid in your body.
2. Microforms like bacteria, yeasts and fungi create acidic toxins in your
body. Not only that, but they proliferate in an acidic body. So, not only
do they “show-up” in an acidic body, they also pollute and further acidify
your body. For this reason, it is important to cleanse & detoxify your body
in order to jumpstart the process of balancing your pH.
3. You lack proper alkaline buffers such as certain minerals that neutralize
acids. By increasing your intake of alkaline-mineral rich water and alkaline
supplements, you will replenish your body’s capacity to neutralize excess
acids.
P.1
ACIDIC & ALKALIZING FOODS
For the purposes of identifying the acid or alkaline potential of foods, we have divided the following
list into three basic categories - alkalizing, slightly acidifying, and very acidifying. Even within a single
category, however, not all foods are uniformly alkalizing, acidifying, or acid.
The classification used here presents foods in a three-column chart. Alkaline foods (vegetables) are
divided into very alkalizing, acid but alkalizing, and slightly alkalizing. “Acid but alkalizing” foods are
those which are acid by nature because they contain weak acids such as citric acid. However, these
acids are easily exhausted in your body, converting to carbon dioxide and water during digestion.
They are rich in alkaline minerals, and thus have an alkalizing effect on the body.
Fruits are classified as alkalizing, acid but alkalizing, and slightly acidifying. Since most fruits are
high in sugar, they fit into the slightly acidifying category. If you are very acidic, it is best to avoid
high sugar fruit altogether, or limit your intake to a serving per day. Once your pH becomes
balanced, you can eat them in moderation.
Dairy products are classified as alkalizing, slightly alkalizing or acidifying. Some refute the fact
that dairy products can be alkalizing. This is because they contain lactic acid, which is a weak acid.
While it is considered weak, it does contribute to a low oxygen environment and fatigue. The lactic
acid in dairy products is produced by bacteria that feed on the sugar (lactose) in it. However, milk
contains large amounts of alkaline minerals including calcium, magnesium, and potassium. It also
contains phosphorous, which is necessary for calcium utilization. When one of these alkaline minerals, like calcium for example, binds with lactic acid, a neutral salt called calcium lactate is produced.
Thus, while milk contains lactic acid, it also contains the minerals required to buffer it… and then
some. The fresher the product is, the less amount of lactic acid it will contain, and the more alkalizing
it will be.
Grains and breads are classified as alkalizing, slightly acidifying and acidifying. Most grains are
slightly acidifying. When mixed with vegetables, however, they make for a great alkalizing meal.
Meats and fish are classified as slightly acidifying, acidifying, and very acidifying. Some meats, of
course are more acid producing than others. As a rule, these foods should be avoided until your
body gets back into balance.
In order to maintain proper pH, you should eat them in moderation. The classification on these charts
can serve as a useful guide for taking the first steps towards developing a healthier pH balanced diet
and lifestyle..
Tip! While eating a healthy diet plays a fundamental role in the process of
pH balancing, there are a few things you can do to get a jumpstart:
1. Cleanse your body (colon, lymph, liver, kidneys).
2. Hydrate! Drink PLENTY of water... Especially alkaline water.
3. Supplement your diet with alkalizing nutritional supplements.
P.2
ACIDIC & ALKALINE FOODS
Try to eat 80% (or more) alkalizing foods and 20% (or less) acidifying foods
Note: * "Acid but Alkalizing" foods are weak acid foods that contain weak acids. While their pH is
acidic, these foods have an alkalizing effect in your body. This is because the weak acids (ie. citric
acid) convert to water and carbon dioxide in your body. The carbon dioxide is expelled through your
breath.
