I am not sure were you are getting all this talk about swallowing potassium will cause death???
ALKALINIZING MINERALS Calcium: pH 12 Cesium: pH 14 Magnesium: pH 9 Potassium: pH 14 Sodium: pH 14
If the diet does not contain enough minerals to compensate, an accumulation of acids in the cells occurs.
My dad recently passed away at 92 and his lunch every day for years consisted of a hot dog and a glass of wine. He ate tons of canned foods and drank every day, he was healthy as a horse at least up to 90. Good health has to do with our attitude and outlook on life, not just what we eat. Hi hot dog and glass of wine made him happy!
quote bendingwave:quote fullrangeman from early in this thread:The elements Calcium, Caesium, Magnesium, Potassium and Sodium are listed along with various spices and vegetables as though they are valuable in a diet. You simply can't eat the elements sodium or potassium! There are many compounds containing these elements and most of them aren't alkaline. Strictly speaking, it appears from the ph quotes against the elements, that what are being referred to are the alkaline hydroxides of the elements, [not the actual elements which do not have a ph]. Sodium hydroxide, just to take one example, is otherwise known as caustic soda and is used for cleaning out blocked drains. You can't eat it!My point was, that the list at the start of this post was supposed to be an alkaline dietary guide but the validity of the whole idea is seriously thrown into doubt by suggesting that various highly toxic elements or compounds might be useful in a diet.
That's genetics.
If it was red wine then that alone has a lot of health benefits like antioxidants and resveratrol.
Genetics is one of the main factors but one of the key factors he said in his post was wine....If it was red wine then that alone has a lot of health benefits like antioxidants and resveratrol.
Anecdotal. Some people just do not have the genetics to live into their 90's. There isn't enough resveratrol in the universe to make some people live that long. My great uncle is 80 now and eats total shit, and spent most of his days in a motorcycle "club" drinking and other things. His younger brother who lived exactly like him didn't make 60, and his other brother (my grandfather) was 73 I believe. My grandfather did not live like the other two at all. On the other side of my family my grandmother made it to 93, and she chain smoked every day. She also had a grapefruit and black coffee for every breakfast. The point being is you can't make sense of these things in overly simplistic ways. You can wish all you fucking want that your "plan" is the one that extends your life but fact of the matter is not every is built for it. Without very radical changes in our ability to change telemores and stuff like that, I will never see 90 despite perhaps two of my grandmothers getting there (one is in 70's and doesn't have any gray hair yet). Why do I say that? I resemble the ones that die early, genetically. There are some very clear traits.People with more slender builds make up over 90% of the people whom live the longest. Sometimes they can get fat, but none the less the same thing is true.
This nyt article follows the black soda industry (PH 2.5), dont believe it.Its public knowledge that Nestle company owned by Monsanto wantto make potable water 100% private property in every countrie.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the recent article in the NY Times:Is Alkaline Water Really Better for You?https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/27/well/eat/alkaline-water-health-benefits.html?rref=collection%2Fsectioncollection%2Fhealth"Alkaline water companies make vague claims that it will “energize” and “detoxify” the body and lead to “superior hydration.” And some claim that ionized water can prevent everything from headaches to cancer.But there’s no evidence that drinking water with a higher pH can change the pH of your body, or even that this outcome would provide benefits.Blood is tightly regulated at around pH 7.4, while the stomach, which secretes hydrochloric acid to digest proteins and kill food-borne pathogens, is very acidic, with a pH of 1.5 to 3.5. If you drink water that is slightly alkaline, Dr. Fenton said, the hydrochloric acid in the stomach quickly neutralizes it before it’s absorbed into the blood."
Yes but...One alcoholic drink a day will shorten life, study findshttps://www.upi.com/One-alcoholic-drink-a-day-will-shorten-life-study-finds/2781523628685/"April 13 [2018] (UPI) -- If you drink one alcoholic beverage each day, it could shorten your life expectancy by about one year, a new study suggests.Researchers in Britain, examining the drinking habits of 599,912 drinkers in 19 countries worldwide from 1964 to 2010, found that drinking more alcohol is associated with a higher risk of stroke, fatal aneurysm, heart failure and death. Their findings were published Thursday in the journal Lancet."Happy Hour starts at my house in 20 minutes!
Not everyone can have a slender build. There are ectomorphs, mesomorphs, and endomorphs. Some people are a bit in between two of them. People that are endomorphs consistently have problems with AGE's, and other metabolic factors that make people live shorter years. These are not hard predictors to come by.What you have to understand is people don't equally inherit genetic traits. They can skip generations, and siblings can get totally different stuff, but none the less there will be a consistency with soma types and age statistically.
