  • End Stomach Pain by Eating Anything You Love To Eat

    Dec 4

    Have you ever heard the old adage that “if it tastes great and you love to eat it, it must not be good for you?” Sometimes it seems that way, especially if you get stomach pain every time you eat the foods you love. Do you get indigestion, acid reflux, diarrhea, constipation or any of a number of other stomach disorders when you eat certain foods? Have you ever noticed whether or not you’re eating certain mixtures of foods when that happens? If so, you’ve stumbled upon the secret to ending stomach pain and misery. You just didn’t know that you’d found that secret.

    You see stomach pain and really, many of the common but painful ailments that we have given names to such as diverticulitis, diverticulosis, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome and others didn’t just occur out of the blue. They began a long time before they actually surfaced to show themselves. It has been discovered that the foods that we love to eat don’t always love our bodies.

    In most people who have “normal” digestive systems, incompatible foods, though not originally evident, cause the digestive system to break down and become diseased. If a person has an abnormal digestive system, one that may be slower or even faster than what would be termed a “normal” digestive system, the results become obvious much sooner than in the “normal” system.

    Here’s how it works, in a nutshell. Foods are either acid based or alkaline based. The body’s normal pH, which is a measurement of acidity/alkalinity, is 7.35 to 7.45. The lower the number, the more acidic it is. When a person eats a certain food, let’s say an orange for instance, that food is swallowed and finds its way to the stomach. Oranges are acid based foods with a pH of about 3.69 to 4.34. That is VERY acidic. Most people think that if they eat acidic foods, their body will become more acidic. Au contraire, my fine feathered friend.

    The truth is that when the stomach receives food that is acidic, it doesn’t just pass that food through without adjusting it. The stomach knows what the normal pH of the body is and it’s job is to make the foods that are coming through it as close to normal as possible before they go to the intestines where they are absorbed and distributed. While the stomach is breaking the foods down, it detects the pH of the eaten foods and adds just enough acid or alkaline to the mixture to balance the pH of the food.


    So, once you’ve eaten this very acidic orange, the stomach determines that the pH of the orange is too low to be allowed to enter the digestive system. It then adds just enough alkaline substances to bring the pH of the orange back up to somewhere around 7.35 to 7.45. Once this is accomplished, the orange is allowed to leave the stomach and enter the absorption portion of the digestive process.

    Sounds simple, right? What an easy job the stomach has, right?

    Yea, that’s right, as long as the stomach only has to deal with one food and one pH. But what happens when you eat several different types of food with various pHs? Yea, the stomach’s job gets a LOT more complicated, huh?

    So, what’s the point I’m trying to make? Just this. How do you think the stomach feels when you eat a meal that is very difficult to break down normally, like say, beef, for which it (the stomach) usually releases a fair amount of acids so that they can break down the beef and be absorbed at the proper pH and on top of that, you eat a whole potato, which has a higher but still acidic Ph of around 5.10. Add to that some cooked asparagus at a pH of 6.0 to 6.7 , some iced tea (pH 7.2) and some a dessert of fruit cocktail (3.4 to 6.0). Yow! First, it releases acids and then, to neutralize those acids, it has to release alkalines, then back to acids! The job’s not so easy anymore is it? No.

    The sad part is that when this happens, the digestive process is slowed down right there in the stomach and many times those foods don’t digest for lengthy periods of time. Rather, they just sit in the stomach and start to become putrid. That means that the natural bacterias within those foods start to break them down. In other words, they’re just rotting. When natural material start to rot, they release gasses and toxins.

    When the foods do eventually make it to the small intestines, they take those gasses and toxins with them and the toxins are absorbed into the system. The gasses cause bloating and abdominal distension and often pain. As the toxins are absorbed into the system, they become part of the structure of the body and in doing so, they begin to cause destruction of body tissue.

    This is when the conditions and diseases that you hear about, that cause digestive problems, take place. This is when diverticulitis, colitis, ibs and the other diseases that I mentioned previously start to manifest themselves.

    Don’t get too depressed about this though. There is a simple way to beat this whole system. Just learn how to mix the appropriate foods properly. That’s it.

    Once a person understands how to combine certain foods, they can completely end stomach pain, bowel pressures, digestive problems and a number of other digestive disorders that complicate their lives and make them miserable.

    This method is not something new. It has been around for centuries but people are often very stubborn and insist on eating food in certain combinations, to their detriment. Food is great, but it can cause you extreme torment if eaten in the wrong combinations.

    Once people discover how to eat the proper combinations it is very common that the symptoms of the diseases disappear and they can lead normal lives without burning stomach pain, indigestion, diarrhea, constipation or irritable bowel syndrome. It’s the food mixtures that cause the problem. Not the food itself.

    If they go back to eating the wrong combinations, the symptoms return. So what does that tell you?

    This food combining system is not a miracle nor is it a secret. It is just a learning process that very few people know and understand.

    If you or someone you care about is having any type of digestive or digestive system problems, the answer to their health may be a simple adjustment in the foods that they’re eating. It may behoove them to learn how to combine foods correctly and end their stomach pain forever.
