My wife Eileen found this article on how A Acid Reflux Pills were Linked to Hip Fractures. I am writing about it to explain that when we don't understand the lymphatic system and acid-alkaline balance, we are missing the root cause of acid related health problems, which is acidic cellular waste. The researchers studied 60,000 Canadians age 50 and older for the study. They found that people who took Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPI's) for 5 years were more than 1.5 times more likely to have hip fractures. Study participants who took the drugs for 7 years were 4.5 times more likely to have hip fractures. Acid reflux pills, like PPI's, work by blocking the production of hydrochloric acid  in the stomach.  Hydrochloric acid helps the body to absorb calcium. The researchers theorize that when you inhibit the normal production of stomach acid the drugs' acid-blocking effect could speed up bone loss. They are missing how excess acid in the body can demineralize bones, creating bone pain, osteoporosis or hip fractures.

When you have acid reflux you aren't thinking lymphatic system, neither is the medical community. We are treating acid reflux as a digestive problem rather than the acid from our 100 trillion cells that make up our body. The lymphatic system plays an important role in removing cellular acid waste (lactic acid, parts of dead cells and acid from the decomposition of dead cells).  On average, 500 million cells die every day in your body, up to 10% of that cellular waste must be removed by the lymphatic system. Over weeks, months and years if your lymphatic system is congested or sluggish you can fill with acid waste. If you want to take control of your acid problems, which can become deadly with esophageal cancer, you must understand the emerging science of the lymphatic system and acid-alkaline balance.

By learning about acid-alkaline balance you will know what foods promote acid waste and what foods promote alkaline waste. By learning how to balance these foods you won't have to totally restrict your diet.  By learning to activate your lymphatic system for just a few minutes each day, you take manual control of removing the acid waste that is storing in your body. You will be able to increase lymph flow and detoxification of acid using your own two hands. This is not magic, it is science.  Emerging Science that can help you gain control of your acid related health problems and bone loss.
