gotta remember these doctors are trained in western medicine. RIP Dr Sebi

This literally what Dr Sebi said.... people will know the truth and still tell you to ingest what is not good for you. He said "do it because thats what I do" lol

[bryananade]

it’s upsetting me and my homegirls that they are leading us down the wrong way

Here we go with doctors prescribing tap water again

[mrssologov]

Sorry doctor, but you’re wrong. I changed my diet due to uterine fibroids, and my body released the fibroids naturally. You can also save money by alkalizing your own water, just add lemon and cucumber slices or eat foods that are high in alkaline.

As true as that is, cancer and other diseases are more likely to grow in ACIDIC based cells over non-acidic. And since your cells are literally made of what you eat…

[DJIIDEEPVISUALS]

They literally don’t know WTF THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT

[sesomnoslen]

?Did any of the conscious people watching this video think of Dr. Sebi and said what did we expect from Western doctors, especially of European decent?

[mothecleverchild]

They hating cause Dr sebi would leave them without jobs 😂

[sabrinacarmelotes]

The alkaline lifestyle has been around since the 70s and 80s this isn’t new

There is also the difference between acidic foods and acid forming foods.Lemons for instance are acidic but they do not have compounds that will result in the addition of harmful acids in your body. Red meat and white bread will form acids and will have health repercussions, for instance. And yes it is also about balancing, it wont hurt you to drink a cup of coffee although being an acidic drink, it is loaded with antioxidants but we must know our limits too, not to mention adding milk and sugar changes things.
When it comes to water, it is best to not drink water from the tap, because it can be very hard water with presence of heavy and toxic metals, as well as high number of minerals that aren't necessary healthy proportions.

They don’t know what they talking about 🤣 caffeine is a drug

[lynnvandyke]

The alkaline diet has changed my life. Along with my water distiller and my grounding mat. I learnt about what was going on in the world in 2020. Refused the jabs and researched ways of protecting myself. The PH miracle. End of story! ❤

[rosewestler]

I'm still out of words on how to thank you sir Ozuka, I'm grateful God used you to cure me from my Cancer with your herbs, may God bless you continuously

[laurenkeele]

I've started eating healthy for cervical dysplasia. I did a test before when I was eating and smoking and it was acidic. Levels of 4. Now I've quit and eating veg and fruit and within 1 week my body is now at 7.5 which is considered alkaline. People say you can't change it and it keeps it balanced. Well how can that be explained. Your gut processes a lot. Give it what it needs. Fuel it with good stuff. Not shit

[Tweezerman]

doctors team: plz include a more accurate list of alkalizing foods. your welcome to contact me for the list. #drsebi #sebiapproved i went from 245-160 in 1.2 yrs following this list. the diet is vital for our survival as herbivores. kudos to bringing light to this lifestyle.

[MrCgarcia]

wow, totally paid for by a pharmaceutical company

[kamui]

Don’t drink the tap without filtering it or knowing the ph levels at least. Being around dallas, Los Angeles, Fresno, Denver, Atlanta and Augusta all had some sort of acidity to it, always being below or just about 6. I’d reframe drinking straight out the tap but if you really don’t care by all means
