Yes, we all know we need to hydrate. Yes, we even know we need half our body weight in water per day. But what if I told you your tap water (or “filtered” or bottled water) wasn’t hydrating you? That in fact, your water is likely loaded with toxins, added chemicals, chlorine and trace pharmaceutical drugs?
Remember the pH scale from high school chemistry? While 7.0 is neutral, our bodies run best slightly alkaline. Be that as it may, exposure to sugars, toxins, processed foods, meat and dairy have led our bodies to an acidic state. We live in an acidic world. The foods we eat, beverages we drink and stresses we endure all effectively raise our body’s pH to an acidic state.
This is problematic because an acidic state equal a disease state. When you are acidic, your body is undergoing chronic, low-grade inflammation. We now know that most modern diseases like autoimmune disorders, unexplained weight gain, and cancer all have inflammatory components. This isn’t new research; in 1930, Nobel prize recipient Dr. Otto Warburg discovered that cancer cells prefer acidic and sugar environments, not alkaline.
Alkaline, ionized water is an effective way to hydrate while detoxifying the body and improving your pH. Other common uses include the treatment of asthma, heartburn, indigestion and a host of other ailments. Alkaline, ionized water is highly antioxidant and can help neutralize free radicals, effectively slowly aging and disease progression. Alkaline water can even help prevent the illnesses caused by bacteria and viruses, since most bacteria and viruses thrive in acidic environments.
