age physiology
Can any doctors in the forum verify the following? (my source Joe Friel, Training Bible):
1. Kidney function declines with age leading to loss of nitrogen and increased acidity of blood.
2. New muscle cannot be formed under these conditions (net loss of nitrogen and acidic blood).
3. Key to "avoiding" this situation is to increase alkalinity of blood.
4. Increasing blood alkalinity may be achieved by intaking certain foods or supplements.
thanks in advance for your input

Making the urine too alkaline is a great way to get kidney stones.

Sounds like a lot of "hooey" and bogus science!

...Or read The G-Connection, by Dr. Joan Vernikos (former head of NASA Life Sciences).

PM cbhungry. She is a dinky-di doctor, but does not post on BFs frequently these days and probably never comes by this forum in particular. See if she would be kind enough to post a response to your question here.

Sounds like a bunch of half-truths strung together to reach a wrong conclusion.
Research demonstrates that even individuals over the age of 80 can fortify their muscles by participating in regular strength-training workouts.

OK, I'm not really a doctor, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night
