New Understanding: Foods that bring the body into acidemia /acidosis
A Different Way of Looking at Food.
Doctors… When I say “I’m changing my diet to make my body
alkaline”, the doctor may not agree.
When I say “I don’t want to overwork my body to keep it’s pH balance every time it goes into acidosis when I eat the wrong foods,” the doctor may be more open.
Biblical Dietary GuidelinesThe rules of Kashrut were formulated long before the modern germ theory of disease was understood, but certain aspects of the rules appear to be designed to protect human health. Prohibitions upon consuming carrion eaters (Leviticus 11:31) or the use of bowls and vessels in which animals have died (Leviticus 11:31–32) can be seen as preventing disease. Likewise, rules for processing meat, such as glatt, the requirement that lungs be checked to be free of adhesions, would help prevent consumption of animals that had been infected with tuberculosis. Similarly, the ban on slaughtering unconscious animals would prevent certain sick and possibly infectious animals from being consumed. The prohibition against eating pigs (Leviticus 11:3–8) is the preponderance of parasites (e.g., worms) in pigs. Other rules cannot be so easily explained as health measures: e.g., certain rules, such as permission to eat locusts and beetles (KJV) (Leviticus 11:22), or the prohibition against eating the harvests of the first three years and the seventh year (Leviticus 19:23-25; 25:3-5) though this can be seen as letting the soil replenish so that the harvest is not depleted of nutrients.
