    Robert O. Young, CPT, MSc, Ph.D., D.Sc., Naturopathic Practitioner, Commissioner for the International Tribunal of Natural Justice, Editor on the Editorial Board at ACTA Scientific, is a world-renowned published scientist, biochemist, nutritionist, and naturopathic practitioner. He speaks to audiences around the world on health, wellness, nutrition, fitness and the alkaline lifestyle and diet in the prevention and reversal of all sickness and disease. His foundational theory, called the New Biology suggests that the human body is alkaline by design and acidic by function. That there is only one sickness, one disease, one treatment and one health and one fitness. The one sickness and one disease is the over-acidification of the blood and then tissues due to an inverted way of living, eating and thinking. The one treatment, one health and one fitness is achieved and maintained through an alkaline lifestyle and diet. Dr. Young has over 100 peer-reviewed articles published in noted journals including the International Journal of Vaccines and Vaccination and the International Journal of Complimentary and Alternative Medicine. He is also the author of over 100 books and 3000 articles translated in 29 languages, including his best-selling books, Sick and Tired, The pH Miracle, The pH Miracle for Weight Loss, The pH Miracle for Diabetes, The pH Miracle for Cancer, The Cancer Solution with over 10 million in worldwide book sales. Dr. Young is the father of 5 children and 7 grandchildren and resides at the pH Miracle, Rancho del Sol in Southern California.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Health/Diet Book

This is one of the most informative, eye-opening books I have read - EVER - concerning health and diet !
Having reached the ripe old age of 82, I have been trying to deal with most of the health problems inherent in my life-time, and coming to my attention as symptoms of "old age" - mental lapses, inflammation in various parts -ankles, feet, etc.- urine leakage, forgetfulness, raised blood pressure, slowly rising glucose count, etc : ( ! !
I ran across recommendations on trying the Alkaline Diet, purchased Dr. Young's THE PH MIRACLE, and then found this, his SICK AND TIRED book. This is THE BEST ! ! This book advocates balancing your body's biochemistry by first investigating and explaining what that is, and it is entirely different than the explanations offered by today's allopathic medical societies. It is an explanation and clarification of Antoine Bechamp's theories of mycrozyma, and their relationship/interaction in bodily functions and development. To understand what these are, and to work with them in the pursuit of health is the purpose of this book. It explains the concepts of the acid/alkaline balance of the body - what that balance has to do with our health and well-being, and what we can do to achieve the proper balances, and subsequent healthy states.
It is the most revealing, understandable, and workable life-style I have had the pleasurable experience of addressing.
The results? No more mental lapses or forgetfulness, no more swelling, lowering glucose counts, lowered blood pressure, and I am no longer a "leaky old lady" !
Good luck, and good reading !

5.0 out of 5 stars The Amazing Secret Annals of Cell Physiology and Biology
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2011

I have been reading about health and nutrition for years and I have never come across a text that is so eye opening regarding the root causes of disease, i.e. degenerative diseases and cancer. While some of the concepts are challenging, Dr. Young has found a way to explain this neo-medical language in a way that is readable for the average layman. It has opened my eyes to the realization that real health is based on four things: 1. pH balance 2. elector-magnetic charge of our cells 3. Toxicity in the body 4. nutrition. Dr. Young has connected so many dots for me regarding true health, true health must begin within ourselves at a cellular level. These eye opening discoveries that have been suppressed by our medical schools, due to pharmaceutical control, has made me realize that modern medicine is participating in one of the most social injustices towards humnaity in our modern times. Thank God for these doctors, including Dr. Young who have taken upon themselves to really look at the pathology of disease from within the cells, via molecular physiology and micro-anatomy to explain what is casing disease, it is based on our inner terrain. I believe that our current state in health care cannot continue to go on and will eventually bottom out in the future. It is my hope that this facinating discussion of microzymian evolution will become the focus of our current medical model in the future, so that the practice of medicine is about disease prevention; rather than, symptom treatment. We must begin to participate in this revolutionary model of health and wellness and it will be up to the people to take it upon themselves to do so. I believe that until we participate in this revolutionary paradigm shift, many people will die unnecessarily and prematurely. May God bless Dr. Young and other physicians who are the real geneouses of medical science and health. Dr. Young keep up the good work, you are truely a health and wellness icon and prophet in our modern times.

Simplifies health, All you have to remember is which foods are acidic and which are alkaline. The more alkaline you eat (vegetables). The better you will feel. Creates an environment where fungus and parasites can't thrive in your intestines.

5.0 out of 5 stars this book will BLOW YOUR MIND
Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2015
Verified Purchase
I have purchased over 20 copies of this book to give to friends and loved ones. If you really want to know more about how the body works, how disease "happens" and how to make better decisions about your health - then this book will BLOW YOUR MIND. If you have not had any luck with treating any kind of illness with regular doctors and do not know what to do or where to go to next - then get this book. The theories set out in this book (with ample historical references) will offer an opportunity for you to change the ideas you have about germ theory, allopathic medicine models, why we get sick, why prescriptions for wild and powerfully dangerous substances are so far off base (and only make us sicker in most cases), and how to stop/treat the decline of the body. This in turn, will offer you some clear alternatives about nutrition, about caring for illness, about making better decisions for you and your family. This information is truly a paradigm shift if you have been raised in America and believe that doctors really know how the body works. Even the best and most well intentioned doctors have been taught that disease is caused by a single "germ", and that pharmaceuticals are the savior and the reason we are living longer. IF you debunk this theory, then what happens? If this theory is wrong, then what do we do???? Read the book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a scientific explanation to the cure to all illnesses
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 23, 2013

I don't often write reviews.
I don't have "a way with words" and writing is not something I enjoy doing.
But I couldn't possibly not review this book.
Dr Robert Young does a great job at explaining what to do if you want to enjoy great health, and if you want to thrive rather than survive, and he gives all the research to show that he know what he is talking about.
The idea behind the book is that all health is related to the health of our blood. If the bloody is healthy, then we are healthy. The reason for this is that, everything in our body starts at the cellular level, so if we take care of our cells, then everything they will produce will be healthy. It's obvious.
Dr Young explains that there is a very simple way of ascertaining whether or not our blood is healthy or not, and that's test its PH level. If the PH is acidic, we have some work to do. If the PH is alkaline, you're already doing great.
Every food has a PH level too, oranges for example are very acidic, whilst cucumbers are highly alkaline.
Like paying money into your bank account, add some alkaline foods to get back into the black and you'll feel tons better for it.
I used to suffer from CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). I had been laying on a sofa for almost 4 years not knowing which way to turn. I had all the symptoms, from the muscle pain to the unrefreshing sleep to the mind fog to the debilitating low energy levels. I literally was unable to get up, even sit up, often I wouldnt be able to hold my own glass of water.
Doctors were no use, and simply said CFS can last up to 10 years and there is no cure or treatment.
I then went on the alkaline diet for about 20 days and I was cured.
I am not the only one. I know of many others who have reversed diabetes, CFS , even cancer just using food, water and oxygen.
Absolutely worth a read.

I came to this book in desperation after suffering from chronic sinusitis for years. Anyone who has suffered from this miserable condition will know just how much it can blight your life.
Antibiotics work initially to check this condition but after a while the infection becomes totally resistant, after which the doctors will say "sorry, nothing more we can do". At which point you're on your own.
I spent a fortune on various alternative solutions such as herbalism, salt irrigation, colloidal silver, etc., none of which did any good.
Then I found this book. I don't care how it's written, how poor the illustrations might be, or how cranky the author might appear. For me IT WORKED! By following the dietary advice in this book I am now cured. I can breathe, I can sleep at night, no more pain in the teeth and face, and no more foul gunk in the sinuses.
I'm quite sure many other diseases can be cured by following the author's advice and ditching the junk food and non-food that western society finds so appealing.
Worth every penny.

Very informative about cause of many illness. It is all makes perfect sense. I got some serious insight about why modern medicine and modern doctors are not capable of treatment any illnesses and only can < and allowed!> to treat symptoms with chemical crap produced by big farma. Which is obviously absolutely useless. < not to mention such treatment makes every illness worse>.
I highly recommend to read this book to everybody who does not want to be sick despite of all effort of the modern medical industry.
