WATER IS IMPORTANT
Water is essential to life. Our bodies are made up of 50% to 65% water. Water is in every cell and is used in all organs, tissues, and cells to transport nutrients, remove waste, and regulate temperature.
Water distributes vitamins, minerals, and glucose to nourish our cells. It also helps cleanse the body by carrying toxins our through urine and feces.
We need to drink a lot of water to stay healthy! It’s recommended that we drink more than 64 ounces a day. That is often a challenge. The Institute of Medicine recommends that men drink 125 ounces of water a day, and women should drink 90 ounces every day.
ALKALINE WATER
The pH scale above reflects the differences between acidity and alkalinity. Neutral is considered 7.0 and anything below that is acidic. Alkaline water has a pH above 7.0 on the pH scale. It has a higher pH that regular tap water which is usually 6.0 to 7.0.
Natural alkaline water is created when water flows over rocks in a stream or spring. Minerals are dissolved into the water and raise the pH to make the water more alkaline. Natural alkaline water is hard to find. There are numerous processes for making alkaline water that still provide the same benefits. ALPRO WATER can provide you with pure alkaline water through our special water purification and treatment system.
BENEFITS of ALKALINE WATER
Alkaline water helps alkalize a body that is acidic. This very important for people that consume a lot of acidic foods such as sodas, processed foods, sugar, dairy, and red meat. Some research has reflected that people live longer drinking alkaline water.
There a number of benefits from drinking Alkaline Water reflected by Doctor’s Health Press. (6 Health Benefits of Drinking Alkaline Water (doctorshealthpress.com)
1. Helpful for Detoxification
Detoxification is important for removing the accumulation of harmful toxins in the body. Toxic overload can lead to chronic fatigue, low energy, bloating, mental confusion, inflammation, and food sensitivities. Drinking alkaline water can help detox the body of heavy metals, such as mercury. In a 2003 study published in the journal Ambio, researchers found that alkaline water had a protective effect against mercury in 43 women who lived in an alkaline-rich area in Sweden.
2. Weight Loss with Alkaline Water
It may be beneficial to try an alkaline water weight loss plan. In a 2011 preliminary study published in the journal Original Internist, researchers found that obese individuals who drank two liters of alkaline water daily lost an average of 12 pounds over two months. In a 52-week study published in the International Journal of Experimental Pathology in 2001, rats that drank water with the highest pH level lost the most weight.
3. Reduces Acid Reflux
Acid reflux will typically create a burning feeling in the lower chest, typically after a person has eaten. It is a condition where stomach acid flows into the esophagus. It is also commonly known as acid indigestion and heartburn. People are often diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), where acid reflux is experienced at least twice a week.
Research shows that alkaline water can be a beneficial therapeutic treatment for patients with acid reflux disease. In a 2012 laboratory study published in the journal The Annals of Otology, Rhinology, and Laryngology, researchers discovered that drinking alkaline water with a pH of 8.8 results in beneficial acid-buffering activity. Alkaline water also inactivates pepsin, an enzyme that plays a role in acid reflux.
4. Helps Improve Bone Health
Alkaline water could also improve bone health. A 2014 observational study published in the journal BMJ associated a high milk intake with a higher risk of fractures amongst women. It is thought that alkaline water is a safer dietary source of calcium than milk or dairy. In a 2009 study published in the journal Bone, researchers discovered that alkaline water significantly reduced two markers associated with bone loss—PTH and S-CTX—in 30 female dieticians.
5. Provides Antioxidant Benefits
Alkaline water is a natural antioxidant that can neutralize harmful radicals in the body. Laboratory studies have also tested the antioxidant potential of alkaline water. In a 2006 study published in the journal Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, alkaline water showed potent antioxidant activity when mixed with vitamin C.
6. Essential for Heart Health
Drinking alkaline water can reduce certain risk factors associated with heart disease. In a study published in the Shanghai Journal of Preventative Medicine, researchers found that alkaline water consumption for three to six months could significantly reduce blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol.
It was concluded that alkaline ionized water could improve the symptoms associated with diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol. Heart disease and hypertension are risk factors for diabetes. In a 2004 study published in the journal BMC Public Health, researchers suggested that alkalized mineral water could lower blood pressure in people with low calcium and magnesium levels.
Drinking alkaline water may also help hydrate your body, improve mental clarity, and boost your overall immune system.
Drinking alkaline water is a good idea—but many people should be drinking more water in general. Check your urine color to determine if your body is well-hydrated. A deep yellow color is a sign of dehydration; if your urine is clear or light yellow, then you are likely getting enough water.
