Pneumonia is an infection of one or both of the lungs caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. It is a serious infection in which the air sacs fill with pus and other liquid. Lobar pneumonia affects one or more sections (lobes) of the lungs. Chlorine suppleents increase the body's PH, extremely high pH level can kill bacteria. A pH above 12 is generally considered lethal to most bacteria, as it disrupts bacteria cell membrane causing a breakdown, leading to death. High pH Disrupts Bacteria Cell Membranes: High pH levels, particularly above 12, can cause the cell membrane of bacteria to break down. This breakdown disrupts the integrity of the cell, leading to the loss of its internal structure and, ultimately, death. Research show that even relatively low pH level, such as pH 9, 10, or 11, can effectively kill or reduce the viability of certain gram-negative bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella. Hygienic Applications: This principle is utilized in some hygiene powder products, which use ingredients with a high pH (like hydrated lime) to kill bacteria in animal resting areas. Synergistic Effects: High pH can also work synergistically with other factors, such as high temperatures, to enhance bacterial death. For example, the combined effect of high pH and high temperature has been shown to eliminate bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella typhimurium very rapidly Not all bacteria are equally sensitive: While most bacteria are susceptible to high pH, some, like alkaliphiles, are adapted to thrive in alkaline environments in nomine Patris et FiLii et Spiritus Sancti peace be still
