Stress, pH, Life, Death
By Jim LeBeau, Certified Natural Health Practitioner Summer 2026 The concentration of hydrogen ions in body fluids is “one of the most important as- pects of homeostasis” (Arthur Guyton M.D. Medical Physiology). Hydrogen may be your key to health and happiness. To enjoy good health, you must master the smallest and most abundant atom in the universe (H) that controls enzyme function, body electricity, digestion, energy, life itself — no H, no H2O, no life. All body systems work better when pH is balanced. Urine pH is both an indicator and PRE-in- dicator of disease (May article at WCN website or Healing Gospel page phpower.org). Guidelines for balancing pH come from doctors who spent lifetimes test- ing urine and saliva pH of patients: Harold Hawkins D.D.S. author “Applied Nutrition,” (1947; D.C. Jarvis M.D. Vermont Folk Med- icine); and other chiropractic and naturo- pathic doctors. Balancing pH has made the difference be- tween good health and suffering, life and death, for many. Here are some key guide- lines. ONE — enzymes in body fluids including blood and digestive juices from saliva on down depend on a near perfect balance of hydrogen vs. bicarbonate ions (pH) to work as designed by God. In self-testing, the im- portant thing to know is the normal pH cycle range in 24 hours, circadian rhythm. Urine pH responds to meals, fluids, stress, and health of adrenals and kidneys so cycles more. Saliva correlates with blood pH of 7.4 and is more stable. A healthy cycle range for urine is 5.0 to 7.5 on the pH scale; for saliva 6.4 to 7.4. Experts may differ a little
to adjust blood pressure when getting up from a couch. The result is short term lack of oxygen to the brain and “blackouts” — can’t see anything. That was my experi- ence in 1978 dealing with panic attacks and facing death with no help from doctors. With help from God, I began to learn about pH and Nutrition-for-life. The good news about unrelenting stress is that it helps you find peace with the Lord. A life saving thought is, “trust the Lord with all your heart” (Psalm 3: 5-6). Trust in His love, and trust how He made life to work with agriculture, food, the elements etc. Practice your faith before the winds and waves get too strong, so you can avoid the extreme stresses that throw pH and other systems off that lead to kidneys dumping sodium. Spiritual salvation is always avail- able with Jesus, but body salvation may re- quire testing and balancing of five key body systems: pH, digestion, blood sugar, body temperature, blood pressure. With unrelenting stress there are special nutritional needs to consider. Few of us will face a bear, but most of us sooner or later will face prolonged stress involving relation- ships, money, sickness, old age etc. Spe- cial requirements of stress include protein, B vitamins, C, and zinc for the carbonic an- hydrase enzyme, a major key to proper lev- els of stomach hydrochloric acid and blood pH. Adelle Davis, who sold millions of books on nutrition wrote of an “x factor” in green foods to help with stress. Green foods are a primary source of magnesium, the first to go under stress, nucleus of chlorophyll, and critical to hundreds of metabolic processes. God put magnesium and zinc along with dozens of “co-factors” you never hear about ONLY in the germ and bran of a whole grain of wheat. “The whiter the bread, the sooner you’re dead.” Adrenal glands store the most C (ascorbic acid) of any body part, a potential life-sav- ing detail. Stress can use up vast amounts of C. Quality food-sourced C is thus a major key to acidify urine. Thomas Levy M.D. makes a strong case for C for hope in hope- less cases in “Curing the Incurables.” God told Moses, “Honor your father and your mother that your days may be long upon the earth.” David said to all of us “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.” Scripture supports the idea of honoring a heavenly Father and our mother earth for a long healthy life.

on “normal” but your focus should be on getting pH numbers “in the ballpark” as you correlate test results with diet and supple- ments and with your aches, pains, disease, and symptoms to learn what works for you! TWO — since we are as unique in chem- istry and metabolism as in fingerprints and genes, what works to balance your pH will also be unique. The only way to learn this is by testing and correlating as described. Nutrition-for-life kits have a “Daily pH Chart” to help you keep track. This is how you learn how you are killing yourself and what works to make you feel good. THREE — Early morning testing tends to be more acid as it reflects an early morning shift from an anabolic rest and recovery mode to a daytime action mode. FOUR — saliva pH is normally above urine as it correlates with a slightly alkaline blood pH of 7.4 plus the carb digesting en- zyme amylase works best at saliva in the 7.3 - 7.4 range. Urine reflects acids that need eliminating. A urine pH more alkaline than saliva is a serious caution. It signals low blood oxygen, no rosy cheeks. Note the few rosy cheeks in the elderly compared to
the young. Age is a factor, but not neces- sarily a controlling factor. FIVE — on the way from healthy to sick, urine pH will be the first to deviate from nor- mal; saliva follows. On the way back, urine is the first to move to normal as you make changes in diet, supplements, stress etc. While urine pH is an advance signal of po- tential problems, saliva is more important as it correlates with blood pH. In balancing saliva as with balancing digestion, be pa- tient. It took a lifetime to get your body where it is today. It may take time to get pH and other systems in perfect balance. What’s good health worth? You decide. SIX — Balance pH and digestion together for too many reasons to list here. Get pro- fessional help as needed. SEVEN — stress throws a monkey wrench into the works. How many times have you heard “STRESS KILLS?” How does it kill? Your adrenal glands are the “captains” of your kidneys. In the initial phase of stress, “survival” hormones tell kidneys to dump magnesium followed by potassium (Peshek). As stress continues, unrelenting adrenals weaken and make fewer hormones. This leads to exhaustion of other “alkaline reserves” such as cal- cium from bones with a pH of 14, sodium bicarbonate etc. God made kidneys to re- cycle sodium necessary for the sodium bi- carbonate buffer system to work. With unrelenting stress and exhausted adrenals making too few hormones, kidneys now dump sodium too. Urine pH may be above 7.0 and saliva below 6.0, (an “end stage” profile of patients in a cancer ward and my pH profile in 1978). The need for sodium has been known for millennia. Are you “worth your salt?” Sodium balances with potassium in body chemistry. Your blood pressure tells the tale. See a Nutrition-for-life kit for details. “End stage” may not mean the end if you trust God’s ways of healing and saving body and soul. Years ago, I read of cancer clinics in Mex- ico that use natural methods to treat pa- tients “sent home to die.” Some reported that if they get an alkaline urine to test acid the body enters a “healing mode.” Read the “Terminal Turnaround” report in a Nu- trition-for-life kit. When urine pH hangs in above 7.0 and saliva below 6.0, it’s double trouble. With exhausted adrenals, your au- tonomic nervous system may be too weak
