   My grandfather developed dietary diabetes in the 1940s. He lived until the late 1970s and managed his diabetes with diet very well: he never lost any sight, no amputations, and he had full use of his body. So the concept that all human disease is influenced by lifestyle choices is not new, and has been promulgated by alternative doctors for decades. What is new is when a scientist discovers the wheel when others, including Dr. T. A. Baroody (“Alkalize or Die”), had previously written about pH balance as a way to health.

   I wonder if the pH Miracle Books are written as science, or to help with marketing of Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) products? Where is John Stossel to investigate when you need him? If fat is an acid problem, why doesn’t vinegar make you fat? Perhaps because there are no calories in vinegar. The products can only be sold by word of mouth and in your home on a table or shelf, sort of a shrine. Why? Why can’t you sell it on eBay or in your own health food store? Maybe because that would mean price competition, and at $80 a pound for some powdered veggies you can understand they don’t want $10 a pound competition.

   Beware when manipulative organizations, backed by a scholarly Guru with scholarly credentials, ask you to open your wallet for products or tests designed to confirm the need for the products. They’re trying to help you while helping themselves to your wallet. I guess it’s something that most doctors do since they often own the X-ray, MRI, or Testing Lab. Would you like to go for a ride? Anyone considering an MLM Opportunity should investigate the MLM industry online … there are plenty of watchdog sites to explain the aggressive marketing tactics used by some MLM charlatans. Books such as “Combating Cult Mind Control” by Hassan, or “Dangerous Persuaders” by Samways, or Butterfield’s book on Amway … With any MLM, you should first ask HOW will I recover my initial sales kit investment? WHO will buy these products at these prices? MLM organizations are almost always set up for and by the people at the top of the pyramid who milk the profits. And if you encounter any alternative marketing strategies, like some warmly seductive member of the opposite sex who comes on to you in a major but false way – but won’t give you the time of day when you’re not BUYING something – report it to the company, the MLM marketing association, and any appropriate authorities. The public is not required to tolerate this in sales, marketing, or employment situations. Complaining is the only way to put manipulative people where they belong. If you don’t, you too could end up feeling USED and PLAYED by the GREEDY motivations of manipulative people. And there is nothing moral about pulling people’s heartstrings to line your own pockets. Don’t let someone in a position of professional trust, when you are under their care, take advantage of a business relationship to play with your heart or your head. It is immoral and it should be stopped. I’m certain that Dr. Young and his fine company would never tolerate such behavior because of superior moral leadership. Beware, however, unscrupulous individuals within certain professions.

   Finally a word about weight loss. I’ve been alkallizing for 2 years, and gained 5-8 pounds because I kept eating my regular diet. So it’s still about calories and metabolic rate, in my opinion. A nurse advised drinking ice water during the winter for weight loss to boost the metabolic rate and burn calories. In America we eat heavily all year round. In the summer we store fat when the heat reduces our metabolic rate, and in the winter we’re supposed to burn the stored fat to stay warm, but instead we keep eating and live in warm homes. Then we complain we’re fat.

   And by the way, if you have an illness don’t reject mainstream treatments out of hand. I alkalized with a close relative, the results were poor, though I’m not sure if they would have been any better with mainstream treatment. Each case is different. It’s your health, get what YOU want, not what is PUSHED on you by MLMers!

   I bought this book for my daughter sake. She is almost 10 yrs old, and was diagnosed with type I Diabetes 1.5 ago. I looked into alternative medicine and found Dr. Young book.
   
   I read it, and read it again and again! I was trying to envision how I will be able to make it happened…

   We are family with 5 children, and it does mean that I would have to cook something else for the rest of the family till we get comfortable with this diet.

   First thing I tried was AvoRado Kid Super Green Shake. I couldn’t drink it! I realized that my daughter not going to like it either. I offered it for my husband to try. It took him 30 min. to drink ½ cup of it, while making faces and grunting. After that he ran to refrigerator for a cup of fruit juice .

   This week me and my husband decided that we surely will start the diet, and week later introduce our daughter to it.

   First day, after drinking green drink in the morning, I had Creamy or Crunchy Broccoli Soup. It is basically a bunch of different vegetables cooked in water or broth with very little seasoning to it. It wasn’t too bad. But after bowl of it, I couldn’t imagine having another one. Even week later…
   
   Well, we couldn’t continue past two days of trying…

   I got impression that Shelley Young doesn’t spends much time creating this recipes. Idea is that if you put together something alkaline, it is good for you. Taste of it doesn’t matter. I may research Mediterranean cuisine for soups recipes, or just any other vegetable soup recipes…

   Some of the ingredients you will have to order on-line. They are hard to find even at health food stores.

   Finding and buying all the supplements is another problem. Dr. Young sells all recommended supplements on his web site, but it is very expensive, although different ones are combined, so it is minimizes quantity of pills you will be taken. If you buy everything he recommends, you’ll spend over $500 dollars per person.

   But I am still not giving up! I do have some of the supplements, I did buy green powder at local health food store (“Green Vibrance”), and we did buy Ph drops.

   I am determined to try most of the recipes in this book, since I already invested so much time in this, and money. I cannot just give up. I need to continue for my daughter sake.

   Just came to find a good book of alkaline recipes. Oh, my! Shelly Young book Back to the House of Health: Rejuvenating Recipes to Alkalize and Energize for Life new $99.00, used $40.00!

   Are they after money, or what??

   I have a good friend who is having some serious health issues, diabetes among them / A cousin of mine who is into natural cures recommended this book highly / She told me that after following the advice in this book for 2 weeks, two of her friends were able to stop taking some of their medications & never felt better / I hope my friend takes it seriously & gives it an honest try / This was an excellent buy for a used hardcover – less than half the paperback cost at Borders Books – (including shipping) / Thanks !
