Fallacies
of Blood Thinners
by

The
human blood has many God-given life-saving properties; when it is exposed
to air, rapid oxidation takes place and it becomes strong acid. It
thickens under acidic conditions, and hardens under strong acidic conditions
to stop bleeding.
Blood
gets thicker as we get older because blood becomes more acidic as we
age. The foods that we eat burn with oxygen to give us energy, and
then they turn into acidic wastes. Our body tries its best to get rid
of these wastes through urine and perspiration. Unfortunately, we cannot
get rid of them one hundred percent; we must store the leftovers somewhere
in our body. This is the process of acidification; which, in turn,
is the process of aging.
Since
acid coagulates blood, blood circulation around the areas of acid accumulation
becomes poor and all kinds of aging diseases develop. Going one step
further, blood thickens with clots and fatal results could happen.
For this, modern medicine developed blood thinners to force blood to
be fluid, even under acidic conditions. Rather than eliminating the
cause of blood thickening, we rely on symptomatic treatments, regardless
of all the negative side effects.
When
artificial blood thinner is interjected into the blood vessel, blood
is forced to be fluid and bleeding cannot be stopped. For this reason,
doctors cannot operate on patients while they are on blood thinners
or aspirin, which also acts as a blood thinner. Blood thinner ruins
a valuable life-saving property of blood. Some Chinese “natural” herbal
medicines are merely blood thinners; this can fool the patients as if
they are getting more energy. People may not be aware that they are
taking blood thinners, but their blood may not coagulate when exposed
to air. For this reason, doctors must order a coagulation test before
any surgery.
In
order to prevent blood from coagulation, we must remove the cause of
blood thickening, which is excess acid. We must reduce the accumulated
acid from our body, thus keeping the blood fluid and maintaining blood’s
ability to stop bleeding when there is a cut. Commonly known methods
to reduce acid from our body are: (1) stop drinking soft drinks, especially
high acidic colas; (2) exercise and sweat out the acids; (3) eat more
alkaline foods.
These
methods are not easy to follow through. The various dietary means are
very confusing with different experts recommending different things.
Furthermore, dietary means of exclusion can create nutritional deficiency
problems. The most effective and cleanest way to reduce acid from our
body is drinking alkaline water.
More
and more MDs are accepting the fact that too much acid is the cause
of diseases and death. After all, cancer cells are acidic while healthy
cells are alkaline. Unfortunately, MDs miss the point of using alkaline
water to reduce acid; they all turn to alkaline food for the solution.
It is very difficult to change one’s eating habits.
During
the past decade, scientific advancements in healthcare have opened our
eyes to non-Western preventive healthcare methods such as water ionizers,
alkalinity/acid balance, magnetic, and far-infrared technologies for
non-invasive natural health maintenance. This country must keep up with
these advancements to maintain a healthy population and reduce the ever-escalating
healthcare costs.
