Mixtures?Our intestines do the vast majority of the digestive process. Use of HCl without a buffering agent (bile) weakens the activity of the intestines, as the digestive juices in the stomach require an alkaline environment to fully work.In the stomach, acidic reactions prevail. In the duodenum it must be alkaline. The stomach attempts to give the body sodium to form the bases by increasing the breakdown of salt into sodium and chlorine.NaCl + H2O + CO2 = HCl + NaHCO3 (sodium hydrogen carbonate)The base NaHCO3 is more important for digestion and is given preferential treatment. As the HCl leaves the border cells in the stomach and enters the lumen, the base is taken by the blood to the intestines to aid in digestion. This leads to increased HCl in the stomach. If the alkaline reaction in the duodenum is insufficient, digestion of fats, carbs, and proteins remains incomplete. Fermentation, autointoxication and constipation follow.EVERY TIME HCl IS PRODUCED IN THE STOMACH, SO TOO IS SODIUM HYDROGEN CARBONATE!Alkalophilic organs include the liver, GB, pancreas, and Brunner\u2019s glands, in the small intestine. All contain large amounts of sodium hydrogen carbonate in order to produce their secretions properly.Basic Powder\/Tabs do not act as an antacid in the stomach, when taken away from food. They act in the duodenum and intestines to provide the bases to neutralize phosphoric, sulphuric, and uric acid that have been produced for protein digestion.Basic Powder\/Tabs also do not provide minerals to the tissues. They act only on the surfaces of the intestines if taken with hot water.Use alkaline mixtures to:Neutralize high tissue acidosis, the main reason for chronic diseaseImprove digestion by stimulation of peristalsis, without being purgativeTreat heartburn, gastritis, ulcers, liver\/GB disorders, flatulence, belching, constipation, all rheumatic diseases, including gout, renal and bladder disorders, eczema, and ANS disturbanceTreat sympathicotonia\u2009\u2014\u2009a shift in acid\/base balance towards hyperacidity also causing a shifting into the sympathetic nervous system, resulting in goose bumps, elevated blood pressure, and vascular spasmsBasic Powder\/Tabs from BIOMED\u00ae InternationalWorks best in hot\/warm water; in cold water it tends to be absorbed in the stomachNeutralizes the acids in the duodenum, so the blood can maintain a normal pH levelDo not take less than \u00bd hour before meals and at least 2 hours after.Note: Using an alkaline mixture will shift the acidity very quickly. Broth and lemon and water can also be used but will take longer.Dr. Rau\u2019s Alkaline BrothOne cup of organic celery, green beans, zucchini and potatoes cut in small pieces. Boil for 3 minutes in 1 litre of water. Simmer for 20 \u201330 minutes. Never use meat broth or salt. Strain and throw away vegetables. Drink 1 \u20132 cups per day. High in minerals, will correct a poor diet, eliminate acid and improve day and night rhythms.Ox tail Soup:1 package of ox tailbones (free range)4 garlic cloves chopped2 bay leaves1\u20442 turnip diced3 carrots sliced3 stalks of celery chopped1 diced onionsea salt and pepper to taste or any combination of vegetableschopped parsleySimmer bones in 6\u2009\u2013\u20098 cups of water with 1 tablespoon of vinegar for about 8 hours, a crock pot works well. Cool in refrigerator, skimming off fat. Take bones out of stock and remove meat, return meat to stock. Add vegetables, spices and warm to eating temperature.This is a great soup for healing a leaky gut, increasing alkalinity and proving a natural source of minerals.Earn a diploma in holistic nutrition.
