ONE QUESTION CHANGED THE SEARCH

A vision. An investigation. A book.

Lee set out to disprove what he had seen.

After a period of profound loss, inventor Alfred Lee Edgar traveled to Brazil. An experience there left him with a startling question about human biology. Back home in Utah, he began a years-long investigation through physiology, published research, and collaboration with researchers in Brazil.

Inner Alchemy follows that search. It brings an intensely personal story into conversation with questions about the hydrogen ion, carbon dioxide, breathing, and oxygen delivery. Lee invites readers to examine the ideas for themselves and stay open to wonder.

I thought I was the one with the light. But I was the one standing in the dark.

02 / INSIDE THE BOOKTHREE THREADS, ONE INQUIRY

Where the measurable meets the mysterious.

For curious readers of breath, health, consciousness, and biochemistry.

01

The smallest thing

Explore Lee’s central question about hydrogen ions, pH, and the way the body regulates itself.

02

The breath

Look again at carbon dioxide, breathing, and the difference between having oxygen in the blood and delivering it to tissues.

03

The human story

Travel from grief and an extraordinary experience to a sustained pursuit of meaning and evidence.

FOR THE SCIENTIFICALLY CURIOUS

Explore the physiology behind the book’s questions—and where Lee’s interpretation goes beyond the established mechanisms.

03 / THE READING JOURNEYFROM STORY TO INQUIRY

ELEVEN CHAPTERS, MANY QUESTIONS

Follow the thread through the book.

Part memoir, part investigation, Inner Alchemy moves between lived experience, biological ideas, and a vision for what could come next.

  1. 01

    The beginning

    In “The Woman with the Tea,” loss and an unexpected experience in Brazil set Lee’s search in motion.

  2. 02

    The questions

    “The Smallest Thing in Chemistry,” “The Breath,” and “The Alkaline Myth” explore the ideas that changed his understanding of the body.

  3. 03

    The investigation

    Stories from “The Room in the Garage” sit alongside the book’s discussion of published research and unresolved questions.

  4. 04

    The invitation

    “The Way Forward” asks what happens when curiosity, careful inquiry, and human experience are allowed to meet.

04 / READ A PASSAGEFROM CHAPTER ONE

IN LEE’S WORDS

Two languages. One search.

From “The Woman with the Tea,” the opening chapter of Inner Alchemy.

Some of what follows is hard science. Some of it is personal experience. Some of it is the kind of thing that, six years ago, I would have dismissed as impossible.

I’m going to present all of it, because I believe the science and the spirit are not separate stories.
