about blood

next excerpt taken from this book!

Blood

According to traditional Far Eastern medicine, blood is created largely in the small intestine from the transmutation of metabolized food through the villi. A diet centered on grains and vegetables creates strong, healthy blood with a slightly more alkaline pH value, while the modern diet, combining extremes of meat and sugar creates weak, acid blood, requiring buffer mechanisms, especially depletion of minerals in the body to make balance.
