Dr. Robert O. Becker, MD quote about proliferation of electromagnetic fields being the greatest polluting element.
​All electrical appliances, wires, and power lines produce measurable electromagnetic fields called EMF and residentially are generally associated with extremely low frequencies (ELF). Extremely low does not mean harmless, it is only a designation for the range of frequencies.   ...

Acid-Alkaline Forming Foods

8/19/2014

 
Picture
Good health often means a body in balance between acidity and alkalinity, simply because being at one extreme or the other on the pH scale results in poor health.

    I have the intelligence to know I am stupid, and the arrogance to experiment. Both are key scientific values.

    Goal

    To express solution-oriented arguments toward a healthier self and society.

    Insights

    We can live without our thinking brain, but will die without our emotional brain.  The body never lies, so please do listen to the deep emotions that are here to serve and protect. Then do thoughtful diligence, because we often lie to ourselves through unwise judgment.​
    ***
    No 'system' or 'technology' is corrupt. E
    ach person within or involved chooses whether to operate from integrity - or not.
    ***
    When we decide to operate from integrity each day, we will be free to be diverse without damage or decline, regardless of changing times and technologies.
    ***
    When we decide to apply the basic laws of physics to relationships, we will experience "Heaven on Earth." Physics teaches us that communication and integrity are everything we need to curate a civilization that never more dies out or declines from overabundance of 'free radicals' like we are currently experiencing.
