The Importance of Hydration and Alkaline Water
Article by Gareth Edwards
When I drink more water, it just seems to make me pee more. So is there really any point in consuming the large amounts of liquid that alkalising gurus such as Dr. Young say is so central to the programme? Surely the water is just washing through me?

Q&A With Gareth Edwards
Question One – Spirilina:
As I get older I’m finding I’m feeling that acidic tummy and am looking into trying to go the 70/30% alkaline diet. Spirulina has always been a favourite energy drink. If it’s alkaline (do you know?) what would you suggest one mixes it with as it would be ghastly with pure water!

From running energiseforlife.com I get dozens of emails every day from people who have questions about the alkaline diet. There are so many people out there who are really excited about starting on a path to acid alkaline balance but who have a reason (sometimes called an ‘excuse’) not to get started. And this is such a shame because these reasons are often founded on shoddy science, misconceptions and lies from the naysayers.
I’ve been studying and working in this area for long enough now to have an extremely thorough understanding of the principles, science and practical application of the acid/alkaline diet and so here it is –

Alkaline Christmas – oxymoronic?
An oxymoron is a literary effect created by placing words of directly opposite meaning next to each other – which you probably knew. So when Christmas comes, is it really best just to forget the whole alkalising thing and wait until the 1st January to hit the alkaline de-tox button?
It may seem that enjoying the festive period is at odds with alkalising your blood and body tissue, but here are five tips that might help keep you somewhere near the rails, if not necessarily totally on them all the time!

Q&A With Gareth Edwards
Question One: Blood Sugar
Dr Young Says that sugar is bad for the body, but why is it we have blood sugar? Dr Young also says hormones are acidic waste products of the body but don’t we also need them. Your thoughts on this would be much appreciated.

Why to include it, how to start out and the benefits
by Gareth Edwards
Not now …… Not right in the middle of winter. Not in the build up to Christmas…! Well the reality is that you can gain the same health benefits from eating raw foods in winter as in those (hard to remember!) summer months.
If you’ve been working hard alkalising and energising all year why would you want to stop now! Cruising through Christmas in good health and with loads of energy could be a reality for you.

Weight Loss, More Energy & No More Depression
Alkaline Course Gives Long-Term Results
Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing Charlotte about her experience on the alkaline diet course. Having finished the course approximately eight months ago, I thought now would be a great time to speak to Charlotte and see how she is getting on now, and to prove that this course has lasting impact.
Charlotte reported that the course helped her to lose weight, get more energy, end depression and change the way she thought about food forever!

Kepow! Take that….. Historically we’ve had to rely on fictional characters such as Popeye, Doc Broc and (maybe) the Jolly Green Giant to help us believe that the path to increased physical endurance might have more to do with the vegetable patch than a steak. Increasingly though, real life athletes are starting to wake up to the fact endless bowels of pasta, protein powders or chicken may not be helping them get the results that they are after.

The World Cancer Research Fund (UK) is a fantastic charity. They are really focused on educating people to PREVENT cancer through lifestyle rather than simply helping treat symptoms. I thoroughly applaud their attitude and approach.
This morning they published one of their most startling research findings to date: that more than 80,000 cancer cases per year in the UK could be prevented.
They rightly point out that most people truly believe that cancer just happens to them and it is fate as to whether they get it or not. What a shocking thing to think. I personally believe that almost all cancers are preventable. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize for discovering that cancer cells cannot live in an alkaline environment and Dr Young proves this theory over and over again.
