Notes:

Big meal at night leads to high saliva pH

If you skip lunch, your sugars will be dropped the next day
If the energy going in is not ok (saliva pH) but the energy going out is good (urine pH)
then you must have messed up during that day.
A pattern exists in the numbers for 10 years before the big symptoms appear.
Sugars to salts (brix/conductivity) should have a ratio of 1:4 or 1:5 
ie  1.5 Brix, 6-7 Conductivity
If you buy a refractometer it should read 0-10 Brix or 0-32 Brix.  But 0-10 is going
to be more accurate.
To average your pHs, add saliva twice and urine once, then divide the total by 3. This
shows the importance of the saliva pH.
Drinking in the evening can cause the sugars to be low overnight.
Take half your weight in  pounds, and drink that amount in fluid ounces each day.
If you have an alkaline pH, drink citrus juices.
Minimise liquids after 3.30 pm each day.
Take your vitamins between meals.
Take your minerals with meals.
If your ureas are low, eat one serving of salmon, sardines, hominy, grits, okra or bananas
each day.
Don't do the systematic drinking of lemonade if your ureas are too high.
Numbers in the "healing range", taken at 11am:
Brix 1.2-2.0, UpH 6.2-6.8, SpH 6.6-6.8, Salts 6c-25C, Cell debris 4M or higher, Urea 12-20 combined.
Iceberg lettuce will make you sleep if juiced.
Lemonade in cups: take 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice and 1-2 tablespoons of sweetener depending on
how hypoglycemic you are.  Make up to 4 cups by adding distilled water.
Aim to get your Brix to 1.5 and keep it there.
If you force your numbers to move, you generally lose some energy.
If sugars and salts are both elevated, you are not following the program properly.
Whenever you keep your sugars between 1 and 2 for a whole 24 hours, you gain a point of energy.
If your sugar level goes over 6, it stays there and does not come down until you change your
diet.
With the sugars, you want to remove the peaks and valleys.  The small meal at night reduces
the up and down "wobble", you pick up more energy, and get healthier, get your mineral levels
up.  It might take 5 years.
Don't get your "days" and "nights" mixed up when eating.
It's what you eat, and when you eat it.
Don't add epsom salts to your bath.
Calcium citrate is seen by some as neutral in RBTI, although some claim it alkalises slightly.
Neutral calciums include gluconate, orotate, MinCol, and dairy calciums (from Beddoe's book). Calcium citrate is not on that list.
Distilled water will pull dead cells out of your system.  It works.
Soft-seeded veges give you manganese.
Make up your lemonade the night before, but don't squeeze the lemons until the
morning.
After 2 hours, urine is no longer testable.
Butter in small amounts, but cream is more ok.
You can't be vegetarian for more than 3 years without doing damage to your body.
In a healthy person, sugar will also vary during a day, but only from say 1.4 to 1.8
If there is an oxygen deficiency, the person needs to breathe deeply, play the
harmonica or sing 15 minutes a day.
When your sugars crash it sets you back 6 days, if you don't handle it by eating
a little fruit or stopping drinking water.
People who are told to drink juice probably won't feel very well at first.
If your ureas are below 12 combined, you need to eat potassium-rich foods.
If they are above 20, you need a "water wash" to bring them down.
It's obvious when someone is way too high or low.
Drink skim milk or goat milk with most meals.
Test yourself once every 2 weeks.
Alkalinity leads to constipation, if so, avoid wheat or bread.
Barley will correct an alkaline pH, cheese and bananas for an acid one.
Fish that are okay to eat: salmon, sardines, orange roughy, flounder,
snapper, bass, trout.
A high saliva pH tells you someone was eating meat at night.
Overly acid saliva: irritated liver.  Overly alkaline: congested liver.
If you heal in 6 months at age 20, it will take twice as long at 40,
and three times as long at 60.
Don't put meat stock or broth in your evening meal.
Try eating roast vegetables or bean soup at night, besides vege soup
and salad.
Don't do a urine reading early in the morning.  The body cleans house at
night and throws out dead cells which are acidic.  Wait until 11am.
A little alcohol will help heal the liver, but too much will damage it.
Don't try to force the numbers.
It's a healing crisis if you feel better than you did before, when it is over.
It's a disease if you feel worse and notice more problems over time.
Saliva pH does not change very quickly.
It is normal for the body to have 2-3 days with high ureas and then 1-2 days
with a total under 10.
Saliva pH and bile pH are nearly always the same.
Eat breakfast before 8.30am each day, and finish lunch before 2pm. 
Don't snack except for a bite of fruit if your sugars drop.
Vegetables with a low brix:  potatoes and asparagus
People with low sugars are often "allergic" to honey, they shouldn't have it.
They should have a dessert every day and can add a bit of starch in the evening.
It's normal to have some sugar crashes, don't try to prevent them, just catch
them with a bite of fruit and/or stopping drinking water until they lift.
Calcium lactate will bring the urine pH down, and you can use it without
wondering what your urea levels are.
The lower the mineral supply in your body, the great the fluctuation in the
numbers.
If you see a sugar level below 1.0, suspect that your body has an issue with
honey.
Cod liver oil pushes your pH towards alkaline.
Digestive symptoms of all sorts are normal on the program.  If not feeling well,
check your numbers.
High sugar levels can give the same symptoms as low sometimes.
A drier breakfast helps prevent a sugar drop at 10-11 am, but a wetter breakfast is better for the intestines.
If using lemonade and water, don't sip them, "chug" them.
The intention of the [lemonade and systematic] drinking is to balance the sugars
and over time create less "wobble".  The tiny amounts are to keep you at a perfect level
of hydration where your body heals most effectively.
If you take dolomite and combine it with cod liver oil you are likely to get constipated.

Saliva PH and emotions:

We all have stress in our lives. It goes with the
territory of living. If you're alive, you're stressed.
But stress itself doesn't cause health problems. The way
you respond might. Some ways you react to stress are
more damaging to your health than others. For most of
us, the biggest health hazard of all is how we cling to
past hurts and injustices we have suffered and survived.
And, to make matters worse, we may not even realize we
are clinging!
 
You see, your body responds to your feelings and
emotions. The most striking example of these responses
is when you are suddenly and severely frightened. Fright
is emotional. Your response to fright is physical. And
it's fast. In extreme fright situations, the physical
response is so apparent that others can tell by looking
at you that you are frightened. Emotions and body are so
closely intertwined that the phrase "scared to death"
may not be an exaggeration.
 
Most of your physical responses to emotions aren't as
dramatic as those of "scared to death" fright. Your
physical body responds to all of your mental activities
and emotions. Worry, anxiety, hate, joy, elation, and
all the rest. Emotions don?t have to be strong to cause
a physical response. Any emotion affects your body. And
when the same emotion is played over and over again for
weeks, months, and years, your body continues to be
affected the same way over and over. That's exhausting.
Both you and your body become exhausted. And you may not
be aware that anything is amiss.
 
But our purpose here isn't to give an in-depth study of
how and why your emotions, feelings, thoughts, and
memories affect your health. Our purpose here is to help
you determine why you are feeling tired, achy, and
generally "out of sorts" even though you are eating
properly. That's where saliva pH comes in.
 
THE UPS AND DOWNS OF SALIVA pH
Saliva pH tests can indicate if "emotional override" is
keeping you from feeling your best. Saliva pH isn't any
more of a diagnostic tool than urine pH. Saliva pH is a
tool for evaluating whether your body is responding to
internal (mental and emotional) stimuli in ways that can
lead to long-term health or long-term disease. Saliva pH
tests can also provide clues to the condition of your
alkaline reserve, but urine pH monitoring does a better
job of that.
 
The pH of your saliva dances from low to high depending
on what you've put into your mouth recently. The
"normal" pH of saliva is considered to be around 6.8.
However, it can go much lower and much higher than that.
Chew on an orange, and your saliva pH can drop like a
rock. Swish a solution of water and baking soda in your
mouth (although I'm not sure why you would want to do
that) and your saliva pH shoots up like a rocket. The
point is that your saliva pH changes instantly to handle
current conditions. And that's what you are looking for
when you check your saliva pH ? change.
 
This is a two-stage check. A ?before? and ?after.? The
?before? gives you the pH of your saliva when you
haven?t eaten anything for a while. The ?after? pH shows
the response to an sudden, intense ?threat? of acid.
Your body responds to survive ?threats? of all sorts.
Acid is one of those ?threats.? The objective is to find
out if the acid ?threat? is more intense than any
current emotional ?threat.? This is where emotional
override comes in ? emotional threats may override
physical ?threats? of a sudden ?acid attack.? Emotions
can affect the pH of your saliva. In fact, you can have
residual emotional override from long-forgotten~ past
emotional ?threats? that can send your saliva pH as low
as 5.5 or as high as 8.0.
 
The equipment you need for your saliva pH check
includes: (1) pH paper, (2) saliva, (3) a stimulant,
such as a slice of lemon or a teaspoon of lemon juice,
and (4) a pencil and a piece of paper to record your
initial results.
 
You begin your saliva pH check with your saliva being as
close to your personal ?normal? as it is likely to get
when you are up, moving about, and contending with the
rigors or pleasures of the day. In order to reach your
daytime ?saliva equilibrium? you need a period of
abstinence from food, drink, and other substances that
you put into your mouth. No chewing gum, no cough drops,
no peppermints~ no breath spray, no cigarette smoke, no
toothpaste, no mouthwash. Okay, it?s been two hours.
You?re ready to go with the pH paper, lemon, and pencil
and paper.
 
Use one strip of pH paper. If you are reasonably healthy
and have no allergies, work up some saliva and move it
toward the tip of your tongue. Without touching the
paper to your lips or tongue, wet the pH paper with the
saliva and match the color of the wet paper to the color
chart. Write down the pH number corresponding to the
matching color.
 
Next, the stimulant. Put the lemon into your mouth. Just
suck on the lemon until the flavor permeates your whole
mouth. Dispose of the lemon. Swallow four times as you
tear off another inch or two of pH paper, then repeat
the paper-into-the-saliva routine. Compare the color and
write down the corresponding pH number.
21
Before we get into what the numbers mean, let?s back up
a bit. Recall that the testing instructions began with,
?If you are reasonably healthy and have no allergies,
work up some saliva and move it toward the tip of your
tongue.? There is a reason for this ?reasonably healthy
and have no allergies? business. Some people are too
sensitive to use the pH paper in the way just described.
If you are one of these, instead of touching the paper
to the saliva in your mouth, put some saliva into a
clean plastic teaspoon. Have your pH paper torn off and
ready so you can quickly test the pH. Test the saliva
immediately. Exposure to air can change the pH of the
saliva rather quickly. This is the procedure for both
the ?before? and ?after? checks.
 
Now you have two pH numbers and three possibilities for
change. (1) The first number may be higher than the
second, (2) the first number may be lower than the
second, and (3), the numbers may be the same ? no
change. The question is, ?what does it all mean??
 
CHANGING COLORS
Instead of using numbers to interpret the results of
your saliva pH test, we?ll simplify matters and use
colors instead. The color chart has three dominant
colors ? yellow, green, and blue. Since the colors blend
into one another, to mark the change from one color to
another, we?ll establish color groups at particular pH
numbers. We?ll say that:
Yellow = pH 5.5 through 6.0
Green = pH 6.2 through 7.0
Blue = pH 7.2 through 8.0
 
Changes in saliva pH can indicate whether or not your
physiology is being dominated by your emotions despite
your superlative diet. Since only three possible change
patterns are possible, we?ll look at what each pattern
of color change indicates about your health.
 
Keep in mind that the color changes in the saliva test
are different from color changes in urine tests. In the
saliva test, you are looking at ?before? and ?after?
changes within minutes of your body being stimulated
with a quick dose of lemon juice acid. In the urine
test, you look for ?before? and ?after? changes
following days or weeks of improved diet. We?re talking
here about changes in saliva pH for each ?double-dip?
saliva test. We don?t use the interpretations that
follow to compare today?s test results with next week?s
test results.
 
Numbers Go Up
If your pH numbers go up, this indicates that your body
can respond easily to strong stimuli (acid of the
lemon). No matter what color your first number was, if
it changed to a higher color, that?s good. Of course,
some goods are better than other goods. The best ?good?
is green changing to blue.
 
 
Green to Blue - Preferred response
 
Saliva pH that starts out green and moves up to blue is
the preferred response. It?s a good indication that your
emotions aren?t getting the best of your physiology. You
handle stress well, and your alkaline reserve is
adequate. Since this is the preferred response it has
the shortest analysis. You are entitled to a tiny bit of
smugness. Just keep up the healthy diet and attitudes
and check your saliva pH occasionally to make sure you
are entitled to stay smug.
 
 
Yellow to Green or Blue - Not the best ?good?
A yellow reading that changes to either green or blue
indicates two situations. First, your alkaline reserve
is holding its own. You have enough alkalizing reserve
for your saliva to be flooded with alkalizing minerals
to neutralize the acid of the lemon. Second, anxiety, or
similar emotion, is keeping your body ?on guard? most of
the time. If you are feeling less than top-notch you may
be emotionally stressed and not even realize it. Very
likely, you are anxious much of the time. Although
improper diet isn?t your main problem, make sure you are
kind to your body nutritionally by eating less meat and
dairy products and more fruits and vegetables.
 
 
Numbers Go Down
The acid in the lemon is a sudden ?threat? to your body.
Your body must defend itself. The first line of defense
against this threat is to neutralize the acid with
alkaline saliva. This means that if the acid is the
greatest threat to survival your body is facing at the
moment, your saliva pH numbers will go up because your
saliva is quite alkaline. If they don?t go up (they go
down, or stay the same) another threat, such as anxiety
or other chronic stress, is dominating your physiology.
 
If your ?after? lemon saliva pH numbers are lower than
your ?before? numbers, take this as a sign that your
life and health could be better with a few changes.
 
 
Blue to Green, or Green to Yellow - Wrong Direction
Your pH results indicate that your body is moving toward
exhaustion. That?s really not good. The problem isn?t
too much dietary acid. You still have alkaline reserve
nunerals available; that was demonstrated by the Blue or
Green ?before? reading. However, your digestive system
is running wide-open all the time. The problem is
chronic stress. Probably worry. Low-level stress that
goes on and on and on. A change in lifestyle attitudes
is more important than a change in diet. However,
replacing meats with brown rice, and adding more
vegetables can?t hurt. Saliva pH responses that go down
on the pH scale can serve as a warning that you could be
headed for physical problems. They also indicate that
you are not ?doomed? to disease and despair. Both your
diet and your attitudes are under your control. You can
change either or both. Taking control of the way you
look at life is as important as taking control of your
diet. And when you take control of these two major areas
of living, you take control of your health.
 
 
Numbers Don?t Change
Saliva pH ?before? and ?after? colors that are virtually
the same are the strongest indication that emotional
override is the key factor. It?s time to take action.
Diet is essentially good but may need to be modified
slightly. Emotional habits certainly need to be re-
examined and modified.
 
 
Blue - Blue - Not Desirable
Blue results before and after the lemon indicate that
diet isn?t a major problem. The alkaline reserve is
still able to sit up and take nourishment. However,
true-blues have a tendency to be worriers. Some
vegetarians are world-class worriers. Among other
things, they worry about the animals that are killed for
meat-eaters to eat. Worriers have a problem with excess
digestion ? it goes on constantly, even when they
haven?t eaten anything. However, these people usually do
not have indigestion problems. The negative fallout from
worry and anxiety overrides the positive benefits they
get from their good diets. Classic emotional override.
Consequently, their bodies are headed toward exhaustion.
 
The need for diet adjustments must be evaluated
according to eating habits. Many vegetarians fall into
the blue-blue category. Since they eat primarily veggies
and fruit, they certainly don?t need to add more. But
they need to include more rice cereals with their
vegetables to help neutralize the effects of anxiety
such as worry. A little more acid ash in their diets
might tone down their pH. However, if worry is the cause
of the abnormal saliva pH readings, diet alone will not
improve them.
 
Diet is essentially a non-issue for non-vegetarians who
register blue-blue. Their bodies are being stressed by
their emotions. Acute anxiety is the major problem for
all bluebluers.
 
 
Green - Green - Less Desirable than Blue - Blue
The steady-state green group is also combating emotional
override. These are the ?strong emotions? folks. Not
only is anxiety a fixture, fear, anger, or rage are
constant companions in one form or another. The end
result is physical and physiological exhaustion.
 
Their saliva pH didn?t respond to a sharp jolt of acid
from the lemon. Their pH is high enough to indicate that
some minerals are still available from their alkaline
reserve, but the reserve isn?t overflowing. They need to
make a substantial change in their diet to reinforce
their reserves. Less meat, more cooked vegetables, and
some fruit are in order.
 
Their biggest challenge will be to change their long-
standing negative attitudes to allow their bodies to
rest occasionally. As it is, their bodies are working
full-time to keep them ready day and night to fight or
run. Green-green is not a good situation. Greengreeners
make up much of the ?physically and emotionally drained?
set.
 
Yellow - Yellow - Serious Problems
Most people who are seriously ill are yellow-yellows.
But not all people who are yellow-yellow are seriously
ill. However, regardless of their present state of
health, their diets and their attitudes need to be
restructured immediately. Their alkaline reserve is
either very low or, more likely, they are experiencing
the effects of severe emotional override from persistent
strong emotions such as hate, anger, or rage that they
may not consciously think about.
 
Cooked vegetables need to be added to the daily diet of
yellow-yellows. The vegetables must be cooked because
yellow-yellow bodies aren?t ready to handle raw. Even
fruit may be a bit too ?strong? for their overworked
systems. Changes in diet should be made gradually.
 
Yellow-yellows are essentially up-tight. These are the
folks who need pills at night to go to sleep and coffee
in the morning to get going. They may think they relax
when they sleep. But they are as tired when they get up
as they were when they went to bed. They may sleep, but
their bodies never rest. Sorting out their emotional
lives and their nutritional lives should be top priority
in their daily lives if they intend to continue to have
a life.
 
REACH YOUR POTENTIAL FOR HEALTH
So there you have it. The rousing story of pH.
Monitoring urine pH can help you to improve your menu
selections. Improving your menu selections can help
improve your health. But nutrition isn?t the whole ball
game. Monitoring saliva pH can help you determine if
emotional override is heavily involved in your overall
picture of health. Yet there?s little point in
monitoring either urine pH or saliva pH if you don?t act
on the information. That?s the purpose behind pH
monitoring and this guide ? to give you information you
can use in devising your own plan of action for
improving your health.
 
Your body?s potential for health is built-in. The
potential is there. Only you can cultivate or suppress
it. You have seen how the types of foods you eat require
your body to respond in particular ways. Every response
your body makes is required for it to survive the
conditions it faces at the time. Everything your body
does is perfect for the circumstances. So you can?t
blame ?poor health,? or even ?good health? for that
matter, on your body. Your body doesn?t think and it
doesn?t plan for the future. It works in the here and
now. It works with the materials you give it. That?s the
good news.
