THe Oxygen Handbook; Using Sodium Bicarbonate to stay Healthy: Oxygenation of the body is critical to good health. We explain how Baking Soda oxygenates the body.

You can improve your health and beat disease by understanding how sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) helps provide the oxygen to the cells of your body that you need for maximum health. Understand how oxygen levels help your body defeat illness and stay healthy. The sodium bicarbonate in your body increases your oxygen levels.
A body with a pH of 7.0 (healthy) will carry ten times as much oxygen to your cells as will a body with a pH of 6.0. This says it all!
Dr. Robert O. Young, the famed Australian medical researcher, "Overacidification of our body fluids, due to our diet and modern lifestyles, is the origin of myriad illness and pain, including arthritis. Therefore, in order to regain our health, it becomes imperative to minimize acidification and restore a critical balance."
Now we have discovered a simple and inexpensive method to lower body acidity (raise the pH). With this information the author cured his inflamed arthritis and his debilitating diabetes. He now shares this powerful information with you. Learn the truth about Baking Soda.
