Alkaline Herbal Medicine gives insight into many of the herbs used to reverse disease in Dr. Sebi’s African Bio Mineral Balance. It covers scientifically supported properties, preparation, doses and dosages, and how to combine herbs. It addresses alkaline foods on the Dr. Sebi nutritional guide, and their chemical affinity with and support of the electric body. The natural order in life designed the body to be healthy and heal under the right conditions. These conditions are programmed into the DNA of Homo sapiens, whose base DNA makeup is the African genome. Diets centered on the consumption of natural alkaline plant foods and ample exposure to the sun supported the healthy expression of the African genome. The environment of Africa, and environments similar to Africa, produced life that developed with a complete and balanced electrical structure. The plant life that grew in these environments grew under optimal conditions in nutrient rich soil under year long exposure to the sun. The resulting chemical makeup of these natural alkaline plants protected them from environmental stresses. Africans originally ate diets centered on the consumption of these plants, like the great apes of Africa, and the programming of the African genome used the protective nature of these plants’ nutrients to support its vibrancy. A scientific model supports the idea that Africans migrated out of Africa hundreds of thousands of years ago into the less hospitable environments of Europe and Asia. These environments didn’t support the healthy expression of the African genome and resulted in the mutation of the gene and the development of the Neanderthal of Europe and Denisovan of East Asia. Science has linked diseases like lupus, Crohn’s disease, and type 2 diabetes to the Neanderthal gene. The Neanderthals, who inhabited the Neandertal caves in Germany, ate a diet centered on the consumption of meat. The combination of their meat-centered diet and adverse relationship with the sun led to the development of dis-ease in the body. Now, the meat-centered diet is being globalized and is spreading disease throughout the world. An alkaline plant-centered diet and the use of alkaline herbal medicine naturally support the healthy expression of the African genome in all people, and reverses chronic disease. Pharmaceutical medicine is built on the power of medicinal herbs because around fifty percent of its drugs are derived from herbs. The issue is industry has strategically conditioned people to forget about the healing power of natural alkaline herbs. I dedicate this book in the memory of Alfredo Bowman lovingly known as Dr. Sebi. He helped us to remember that natural alkaline herbs and plant foods support the healthy expression of the African genome that is in all people. He did this by sharing his African Bio Mineral Balance methodology.
The positive experience I am enjoying as a result of adopting a plant-based diet which led me to write my books Alkaline Plant Based Diet, and Alkaline Herbal Medicine. I had been overwhelmed with colds and the flu, body and nasal congestion, stomach issues, excess weight, and lethargy until I become a dietary vegan. I am in my late forties and my plant-based diet has positively influenced my physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being and returned my body and energy to that of a healthy twenty-year old.
This new lifestyle led me to attain a certificate in plant based nutrition from Cornell University, become an environmental and health activist and participate in marches against Monsanto, develop the Alkaline Plant Based Diet website that is focused on promoting the benefits of an alkaline plant based diet, and to return to amateur boxing.
I also obtained a BA in Organizational Behavior and Communications from NYU, worked as an elementary school teacher, and studied social work. I am a web designer/developer and I enjoy boxing, kick boxing, cycling, power walking, and basically anything challenging, and my alkaline plant based diet supports all that I do.
This is a very interesting quick read describing Dr. Sebi’s healthy body based on plant foods and herbs. This book as some others confirms that we don’t need meet for healthy diet; we can get it from plants and nuts. Meet rather disturbs in maintaining healthy body. You can reverse disease by eating plants and nuts only and using specific herbs for specific issues.
This book lists a few herbs and their healing powers; how to prepare them and how to use them.
I enjoyed this read, but if you’re looking for more exhaustive read, I highly recommend Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine by Andrew Chevallier.
This book is best served as a basic guide to learn about the benefits of some roots/herbs/flowers from around the world that promote a healthy body. You can literally skip the first parts of this book as I found it had little value and is very redundant( unless you know absolutely nothing about Sebi's work or the PH/acid balance of the body) The author is clearly pro black/African and is not all inclusive, also is just riding the coattails of Dr. SEBI. Do yourself a favor and watch/read/learn from Dr. Sebi himself and not this guy. I only gave it the second star because I will keep it as a resource, as a read it's BAD.
This book is a tool to be educated on specific herbs and its healing power, or agent. However, I believe this is better for a person who is a herbalist or transitioning to be one. I will see if I can find these capsules for certain ones to heal certain issues, or the products I already ordered online contains it for my uterine, acid reflux, etc. I will also check the health food stores to see what is available as a natural herb or capsules too.
It was an okay read. I will keep on hand for the ones I put stars at for future use.
Great information general. Is one of the few books related to the alkaline way of treating your body. I was expecting in depth info and detailed ways of treating intracellular desease and cure for all of these deseases that Dr. Sebi was able to treat and cure. You will find in this book the foundation of a great philosophy that has been proven to work. But I would love to see a revised version with more advanced knowledge and information. Great read still.
I love this book! I needed this book because it definitely served as an herbal guide. This book helped me pick out which products I wanted to try from both Dr. Morse and Dr. Sebi and I was able to come up with a list of products that work for me. If I didn't want to go the route to buying Sebi or Morse products, I had a list of herbs from this book where I could go and buy them on my own.
I would recommend this book for its information. I learned so much about herbs and their interaction in the human body. I did not know that I did not need meat to survive and to have my protein intake of the day .
A must read if you are interested in natural healing! Gives great information on many naturally occurring herbs and their benefits. As well as recipes for combining herbs, dosages, for cleansing various parts of the body.
Great introduction to eating an alkaline diet. I recommend reading and using it as a guide to herb usage. It uses Dr Sebi's knowledge as the foundation.
More than likely not everyone will agree with all of this, but I enjoyed the book. There is some good information in it. My advice; eat the hay spit out the seeds.
This book gives the classical style of how we humans should eat,especially african.if we continue to deviate diseases will shorten our life span significantly.
This book has a lot of amazing information and I’m so happy that I bought this book because all the information I needed, to become healthier, was in this book.
A well rounded and extremely informative book. I can't wait to put the medicinal herbs to practice. Thank you Aqiyl!
A well rounded and extremely informative book with dose, dosage and combinations of some of the most electrical plants on earth. I can't wait to put the medicinal herbs to practice. Thank you Aqiyl!
This book contained a lot of wonderful information, especially on herbal properties of tropical plants that I absolutely loved. I have seen one plant that was in here in only two herbals. The author also explains how to make medicines and the coverage was substantial. The book was also straight to the point, very well written, and fascinating. Thank you for writing this book!
Many people are unfamiliar with how the renowned late herbal medicine specialist Dr. Sebi cures people. And not only how, but why. Alkaline Herbal Medicine: Reverse Disease and Heal the Electric Body ably provides answers to those questions. It's a good read for all concerned about health, nutrition and the environment.
