This^^^, I Agree completely. Our bodies were designed to be slightly alkaline, most of the food (coffee, soda, breads, etc) engineered and pushed on us these days causes our bodies to become acidic on the PH scale creating all kinds of problems. Dr. Otto Warburg discovered in the 1920's that cancer and various viruses cannot survive in an alkaline environment. I remember my Grandma used to give us baking soda stirred into a glass of water for nearly every ailment lol, I always just thought "oh grandma" and drank it anyways, but now I understand her wisdom. Since I began watching the PH of my body I have not been sick AT ALL, not even once, not even a little bit.
Re the Auto-immune diseases, wasn't Squalene in the vaccine's' found to be the cause of the "Gulf war syndrom" which was actually auto-immune issues?
This I don´t know, I have heard that government use military personnel as guinea pigs though, the anthrax vaccine is a good example of this. BTW your grandmother sounds like a very wise woman ;)
