• There are two major types of stress:

SIMPLE STRESS:  most people think that stress is bad but in its pure form stress protects us.Simple stress is obvious and has a definite beginning and ending.It is our fight or flight response ,the analogy here is putting a frog in a kettle of boiling water.he’ll jump out immediately! we are well equipped to handle this type of stress .                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

COMPLEX STRESS:Is more subtle and can be very damaging to us.It is not always noticeable at first.When we get into a state of on-going low level stress our energy that maintains balance and homeostasis gets diverted and we become outwardly reactive.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Worry,problem at work or home, poor nutrition,etc.These are the things that are more common to the modern man.  WE are not equipped to handle it .It’s only when we stay in this on-going stress state that it becomes inappropriate and chronic health problems begin to develop.                                                                                               COMPLEX STRESS: You put the frog in a kettle of cool water and slowly heat it up.He doesn’t notice it and finally boils to death.Most Americans are slowly boiling to death!                                                                                                                                      ALPHABIOTICIST:  DO :  TAKE YOU OUT OF AN INAPPROPRIATE STRESS STATE                                                                                                                               RECONNECT YOU TO YOUR BODY’S INNER WISDOM                                                                                                                                                 DO NOT  :    HEAL,TREAT OR CURE                                                                                                                                                                                                                        DIAGNOSE OR PRESCRIBE                                                                                                                                                                                                                 MANIPULATE OR ADJUST YOUR SPINE                                                                                                  

THE WISDOM THAT MADE THE BODY HEALS THE BODY!                            

Over 150 years ago Dr. Austin Church formed a business to produce and distribute Baking Soda. ARM & HAMMER® Baking Soda is derived from a natural occurring mineral called trona. It is 100% pure, safe, and natural. Baking Soda (also known as sodium bicarbonate) is a substance that is found naturally in all living things. Its purpose is to maintain pH balance in the bloodstream, which is necessary to sustain life. Due to its chemical and physical properties, sodium bicarbonate has unique medicinal capabilities that every healthcare practitioner, doctor and patient needs to know about.

The only problem is that Arm & Hammer Baking Soda can replace many more expensive medicines and this does not make the medical industrial complex happy.

In today’s modern world of medicine the FDA just will not let companies that sell products make medical claims about them unless they have been tested at great expense and approved as a drug. But this was not always the case and as we can see in the information in this chapter, which is from a 1924 booklet, published by the Arm & Hammer Soda Company. On page 12 the company starts off saying, “The proven value of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda as a therapeutic agent is further evinced by the following evidence of a prominent physician named Dr. Volney S. Cheney, in a letter to the Church & Dwight Company:

“In 1918 and 1919 while fighting the ‘Flu’ with the U. S. Public Health Service it was brought to my attention that rarely any one who had been thoroughly alkalinized with bicarbonate of soda contracted the disease, and those who did contract it, if alkalinized early, would invariably have mild attacks. I have since that time treated all cases of ‘Cold,’ Influenza and LaGripe by first giving generous doses of Bicarbonate of Soda, and in many, many instances within 36 hours the symptoms would have entirely abated. Further, within my own household, before Woman’s Clubs and Parent-Teachers’ Associations, I have advocated the use of Bicarbonate of Soda as a preventive for “Colds,” with the result that now many reports are coming in stating that those who took “Soda” were not affected, while nearly every one around them had the “Flu.”
 
Recommended dosages from the Arm and Hammer Company for colds and influenza back in 1925 were:

During the first day take six doses of half teaspoonful of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at about two hour intervals.

During the second day take four doses of half teaspoonful of Arm and Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals.

During the third day take two doses of half teaspoonful of Arm and Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and thereafter half teaspoonful in glass of cool water each morning until cold is cured.
