Alkalinity: Your Wake-Up Call

A lot of people believe that if they do not have symptoms they are healthy, that’s not true, it just means that they are symptom free.  For most people the first symptom of a heart attack is death.  So if you’re waiting for symptoms to show up to tell you how well you’re doing, it is not always the way to go.  A tumor can grow in a woman’s breast for up to 8 years before it’s visible on a mammogram, so for 8 years she thinks she’s healthy, but she’s not, she just has no symptoms.  Symptoms can also be misleading, for example someone who has had an ingrown toenail, a toot
