Alkalinity
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The most important function of alkaline water is to increase bicarbonates in the blood that neutralize damaging acids.
Alkaline water aids in neutralizing stored acids and toxins in your body. After these acids are neutralized, the body can eliminate them. When acid wastes enter our blood stream, the blood system will attempt to dispose of these wastes in liquid form through the lungs or the kidneys. If there are too many wastes to handle, they are deposited in various organ systems like the heart, pancreas, liver, colon, and other locations.
The breakdown of this disposal process of acid waste could also be called "the aging process." To slow down and reverse this process, one must begin by removing this over-acidification of the blood and tissues by including liberal amounts of alkaline water in the diet. Alkaline water has a pH between 9 and 11, and will neutralize harmful stored acid wastes and gently remove them from the tissues.
Make the Shift to the understanding that the over-acidification of the body is the single underlying cause of all disease.
When natural alkaline water is consumed the change of pH value causes the stomach to increase production of hydrochloric acid, balancing the pH in the stomach as well as creating bicarbonates as a side effect that are absorbed into the bloodstream where they act as buffering agents. The most important function of alkaline water is to increase bicarbonates in the blood that neutralize damaging acids.
As we age, we lose the alkaline buffer or bicarbonates in our blood. This is the cause of aging. Starting at the age of 45, we begin to dramatically lose this buffer. This is also the average age when human beings start to show symptoms of diabetes, hypertension, osteoporosis and many other adult degenerative diseases.
Nutrients from food intake are delivered to each cell and are burned with oxygen to provide energy to our bodies. The waste products of this process are the burned nutrients and old dead cells that need to be discharged from the body. Accumulation of these acidic wastes show up as cholesterol, fatty acid, uric acid, urate, sulfate, phosphate, kidney stones, etc.
The body keeps blood pH stable by utilizing alkaline buffers comprised chiefly of bicarbonates
Improvements to expect from drinking natural
alkaline water:
-
Increased energy
-Enhanced vision
-Body fat loss More stamina
-Better sleep
-Better memory and concentration
-No more afternoon slump
-Fewer aches and pains
-Fewer incidences and shorter durations of colds and flu’s
-Improved appearance of skin and hair
An alkaline pH is only beneficial to the body if it is natural, due to actual minerals in the water. All water coming from nature has a pH that perfectly corresponds to its mineral content. When it comes to alkaline water, only a natural pH provides the body with lasting benefits. A stable, naturally alkaline water combats osteoporosis while providing the body with ample acid-buffering reserves.
Ionizers provide hydrogen derived benefits however they also provide artificial pH side effects. It is not possible for any water ionizer to separate the two. Ionized water is the Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) of the water world. It is an unnatural and unsustainable, never found in nature. The most common side effects of consuming water from a water ionizer is nervous tension over-alkalization in the upper bowel, and compromised immune function.
A stable pH is a pH that perfectly corresponds to the mineral content of the water. It is stable because the minerals in the water continually hold the pH relatively steady. An unstable pH is a pH where the H + and OH - concentrations were artificially altered by water ionizers. An unstable pH does not correspond to the mineral content in the water. It is unstable because the water will more quickly revert back to a pH that is in harmony with its actual mineral content.
