The Kahn-Keys Balance Evaluation is presented as educational and is based upon the authors’ views, published works and common knowledge regarding the physical body. All principles, recommendations and suggestions are presented as general guidelines to be followed as a result of an individual’s freedom of choice. Beliefs and concepts are not intended to supercede or intervene with seeking competent medical opinions, standard and, or, additional, required medical or laboratory testing. This evaluation represents professional collaboration and development between Michael Jonas Kahn, PhD and Ronald B. Keys, JD, PhD from original copyrighted material entitled The Kahn Holistic Balance Evaluation copyrighted (c) 1995-1997 by Michael Jonas Kahn, PhD.

This report focuses mainly on the pH saliva/urine test to give you a sense of focus how it works along with the other materials.

Will you learn this new language of acid-alkaline pH as a new tool to help you manage yourself by reading these materials? Using the pH strips to simply measure your saliva/urine is easy and may be done quickly once you have done it a few times.

Is there a narrow, therapeutic window between acid versus alkaline levels of your body that is consistent with physical health and harmony? YES!!

May even small changes in pH balances outside of this normal, healthy range predict degeneration and decline, future illness and disease? YES!!!

After you are already ill, may even small improvements in pH balances bringing you within a normal range show improvement, enhancement, growth and regeneration? YES!!!

A simple saliva/urine pH test can indicate the pH of your blood. But there are two sides to this coin that you must understand to use this test regularly and effectively. Is your body too acid or too alkaline?

A highly acid biochemistry will put you in acidosis (too much acid). Toxicity from acidosis impairs the functioning of your liver and most other glands and organs. Toxicity may cause a negative-nitrogen balance, muscle wasting (loss), other profound protein losses and still other developmental pathologies, mental depression, nausea, fatigue and loss of appetite. Severe acid-base imbalances in your intra- and intercellular fluids of your body like your blood will invariably show up in saliva/urine that may be easily measured.

On the other hand, biochemists and leading physiologists have long known that the maintenance of a more alkaline pH is critical to cellular health and longevity. A more alkaline cellular pH (anabolic) is associated with normal regulation, excretion of toxins, efficient nutrient assimilation and balanced body ecology. As the cellular pH drops, the body ecology is disturbed resulting in gut microflora imbalances from reversed pH gradients of the GI tract. The maintenance of normal metabolic activity requires that the pH of body fluids such as saliva/urine should be closely watched because the activity of cellular enzymes is profoundly influenced by small changes in pH.

The purpose of this report and these guidelines are to help you participate in your own care and to recognize a clearly defined pH dysfunction that normally pre-dates as well as accompanies aging, stress and increased oxidative molecular breakdown. You can catch sickness, lllness and decline before it happens and intervene with appropriate changes. The older we get, our metabolism becomes either too acidic or too alkaline.

The Kahn-Keys saliva/urine pH Test along with other support materials found in the Kahn-Keys Balance Evaluation Kit has been developed and is now marketed for use by the general public as well as mainstream clinical practice by Michael Jonas Kahn, PhD and Ronald B. Keys, JD, PhD. It is done by testing the pH of the saliva/urine to see how acidic or alkaline it is. By doing this almost daily, we are guided to see the relative strength or weaknesses of our digestion, possible mineral and vitamin deficiencies and the foods we should be concentrating on in order to bring our body chemistries back into harmony and balance.

This kit combines the Kahn-Keys saliva/urine pH Test with a Diet and Symptom Questionnaire and the Kahn-Keys Evaluation Summary and additional support materials. The more symptoms you have, the further you are probably away from a body that is in optimum health. This allows you to make your own dietary and health changes to normalize your metabolism, prevent (further) disease, improve and enhance your health.

To obtain the Kahn-Keys Balance Evaluation Kit with the pH test, questionnaire, evaluation summary and other support materials, to bring your body chemistry back into balance, send a check or money order in American Currency in the amount of $38.00 to Dr. Ronald B. Keys, JD, PhD, 43-06 159th Street, Suite B2, Flushing, NY 11358. The pH (acid to alkaline ratio) test in medicine is well known and documented. However, its significance in self-health monitoring in regards to the digestive and eliminative systems and general health have been mostly ignored in standard clinical medicine. The health care system has been dominated by insurance, and, or reimbursement considerations and oriented towards expensive, hi-tech intervention (the business and politics of medicine) rather than simple, highly portable technologies like this easy- to-do-at-home pH strip testing of saliva/urine and, or urine by patients for self-healing.
