To Antoine Bechamp. If his profound voice and science had
not been silenced, much of humankind may have been spared
the worst aspects of the infectious and degenerative diseases of
the twentieth century.
To our four wonderful and beautiful children: Adam, Ashley,
Andrew, and Alex. And to our new son-in-law, Mathew, and
brand new healthy pH Miracle grandson, CharLee.
And finally to our future—the children who are at the
forefront of an ever-changing and challenging world. It is our
hope that the message of the pH Miracle will be received
within their minds and hearts and become the foundation for
a healthier and happier world.

IfI have seen further it 1s by standing on the shoulders of Giants.
—Sir Isaac Newton
This quote reflects how I personally feel about the men and
women who have had a powerful impact on my life’s work
and mission. Their gifts of wisdom, knowledge, inspiration,
and encouragement have lead me to The pH Miracle.
The life and research of French scientist and doctor
Antoine Bechamp (1816-1908) set the foundation of my
understanding on how matter can take on different forms and
functions, a doctrine he referred to as pleomorphism. If it had
been given the chance, his biological work might have revolu-
tionized medicine with its profound insight into the nature of
life, thus providing the cures for many sicknesses and diseases
that science is still diligently seeking. His life’s work opened
my eyes and my heart and set me on my path of scientific
research and discovery of the nature of sickness and disease
and health and wellness. For this I am eternally grateful.
Modern Western medicine teaches and practises the doc-
trine of French chemist Louis Pasteur (1822-1895). The

concept of specific, unchanging types of bacteria causing spe-
cific diseases made perfect sense at the time in my early
training. Even though I do not now embrace the doctrine of
monophorism, I am grateful to Pasteur for providing the
basis of contemporary microbiological thought, which
inspired me in my research on the nature of the germ and my
quest for the truth of the matter. |
I am richly blessed with a wonderful heritage of great men
and women who make up in many ways who I am. My great-
great-grandfather Brigham Young helped me understand the
nature of matter, when he said that “matter cannot be created
nor can it be destroyed.” This very profound statement has
echoed in my mind, as I realize that matter is eternal and can
only take on different forms and functions.
My eternal companion, friend, and love of my life,
Shelley, has been my river of inspiration and light. Through
her love of people, especially children, and her creativity and
intelligence, she has embraced The pH Miracle and made it
possible for everyone to learn, understand, and live this New
Biology.
Several years ago Dr. Neil Solomon and his wife, Frema,
came to our home in Alpine, Utah, to evaluate the efficacy
of my life’s work. I was nervous and excited at the same
time, because I knew he was a great scientist and researcher.
Since their visit they have become good friends, as well as
supporters of my work. In a world where scientific change is
not necessarily received with open arms, I am grateful to a
medical researcher who has had the courage to express
openly the importance of this work and the need for con-
tinued scientific investigation.
I will never forget the dayI received a call from bestselling
author James Redfield, telling me he had given a copy of one
