So there's this person giving medical advice who says that that the hydrochloric acid in your stomach isn't there to help digest food, but is instead a toxic waste product, and that the stomach lining actually secretes antacids to counteract the acidity of the food that you eat. And this guy has a PhD.

Current Mood: *Boggle*

God, don't be so earth-centric. On his home planet, that's how things work.

(In seriousness, I wouldn't know if he talks shit or not because I don't understand anything he says.)

In what?

Dr. Alexis Carrel, in 1912 stated,
"the human cell is immortal as long as we maintain
the alkaline fluids that it is bathed in."

And he was wrong. The "immortal cell culture" was immortal because the "nutrient bath" added to it daily contained cells. Put simplistically, only cancer cells are immortal-- they don't function normally and they don't die, which is why they're a problem.

I bet he's peddling a special diet book.

His name is Dr. *Mirkin*? Hee.
