This may sound like a paradox, but the explanation lies in the nature of the diet they had previously taken, which was acid forming, and caused one to become too heavy and the other just the reverse; while the alkaline or natural diet brought them back to normal or nearly so. Many housewives complain, “I work hard all day long and eat very little and yet cannot reduce.” The difficulty with such is that the exercise is of the treadmill type, and so does not involve all of the five hundred sets of muscles found in the human body. And few, indeed, are the occupations that do bring into use all these muscles, for such means is generally attained only by a well planned system of exercises taken regularly and suited to the individual’s condition. Walking is one of these and one of the very best; gardening is also ideal. Forever Aloe Vera for hair has been used by native Americans, Indians and by folks in the Caribbean for the reason that ancient times.

In the case of infants it is clearly a matter of overfeeding, and in advanced life, a lack of knowledge of what foods to select, and also a lack of appreciation of the value in exercise properly taken, and of the outdoor life, which furnishes the necessary increased sunlight and intake of oxygen. If the occupation is such that one cannot spend a few hours out of doors each day, arrangements can often be made to sleep on an open veranda and find some convenient time during the day to spend at least a half hour with the uncovered body in the sunlight, as directed in the chapter on sun baths. Added to this, ten minutes morning and evening taking systematic exercises, with the adoption of a suitable diet, will, if perseveringly carried out for a sufficient length of time, cause one to feel renewed in mind and body, will rid the system of disease, and add years to the life as well as reduce the excess weight.

The pressure of the muscles during active exercise, which alternates with relaxation, causes a hastening of the blood stream through stagnant toxic tissues, enabling the system to rid itself of such accumulated tissue wastes as have kept it in a sluggish state, and the carrying away of such debris gives place to fresh oxygenated blood to nourish the cells. Now the question arises: What shall we feed these cells? Not with such food elements as bring deposits of fat only, but with such highly vitalized nourishment, giving an alkaline reaction, that the condition of acidosis is overcome and the blood reaches a normal state. As already stated, adipose tissue, or fatty degeneration, is the result of living on an acid forming diet. Some say, “I inherited it, for all my people are fat.”
