What is Ionized Alkalized Drinking Water?

What is Ionized Alkalized Drinking Water?

There are three main reasons that ionized alkalized drinking water is the best liquid for your body.

It is a powerful antioxidant. This water has an unrivaled oxidation-reduction potential (ORP). Drinking just two glasses of this water gives you more antioxidant support than 5lbs of blueberries. It provides superior hydration by the restructuring of water molecules. Its alkalinity reduces acidosis in the body and brings you back into balance.

All of these combine to make ionized alkalized water the best water available.

Why are antioxidants important to our health?

All things in our environment including the cells in our bodies go through a natural process called oxidation, take an apple turning brown, or a nail rusting, for instance. These are results of oxidation taking place and studies have also correlated oxidation to our aging process.

Antioxidants commonly found in fruits that contain high doses of Vitamin C, vegetables such as broccoli and garlic, and green tea. Just imagine if it were contained in your drinking water too!! This water provides antioxidants equivalent to five pounds of blueberries and available by just turning on your faucet. When you receive antioxidants from food, the food has to be effectively broken down by your gut bacteria before it can be utilized by the body. With ionized alkalized water, the antioxidant can be used instantaneously.

The antioxidants found in ionized alkalized water are able to give an electron to a free radical without becoming destabilized themselves, thus stopping the free radical chain reaction .

Because of the process of electrolysis when producing ionized alkalized water, ionized alkalized water is rich in active H+ ions that can neutralize the free radicals in our body.

Why restructure the molecules?

Molecular structure has a powerful effect on water's ability to hydrate your cells and carry energy throughout your body. Restructuring the molecules is basically a fancy way to say, "tiny" water. When you heat water up it becomes so small that it will eventually become steam. That is exactly the same concept we have going on here.

Restructuring the molecules provides superior absorption. You will notice that when you drink this water it will not sit in your tummy and slosh around leaving you feeling bloated. This not only allows you to drink more ionized alkalized water but it also is better equipped to penetrate cell walls and "wash" away acidic build-up and help prevent premature aging.

Another benefit to the restructuring is that it reaches and hydrates your brain in a matter of minutes, often improving memory and increasing mental clarity. This is one of the biggest impacts it has had on me personally. Before drinking the water, I was always losing my car keys, coffee mug, cell phone, you name it. But now, if I stop and think I can usually place where I set an item down. You may think this is a small thing but on days I decide not to drink my water I can tell the difference and the mental fog is extremely irritating. I know you will be presently surprised to rid yourself of mental fog you might not even know you have now.

Additionally, this restructuring of the water helps us to absorb more nutrients. If you take vitamins, supplements, or BCAAs, using ionized alkalized water will help you get these nutrients into your body more effectively. This is also why it makes great tea and coffee. You'll have to try it and see what you notice.

What is alkalization?

Although alkaline has become a big buzzword in the recent decade and is splattered on all types of bottled water it is important to note that while this is a benefit to ionized alkalized water, it is of the least importance, compared to the other healthy properties. Additionally, ionized water alkalizes the water using electricity, not inorganic chemicals found in bottled water making "alkaline claims". In reality, all water containing minerals will be alkaline. Even tap water.

Alkalized-rich water helps balance the body's pH, which tends to be acidic given the acid-forming foods we eat, stress, and exposure to environmental toxins such as car pollution.

Restoring our bodies to an alkaline state is ideal because viruses, bacteria, yeast, mold, fungus, candida and cancer cells thrive in acidic, low oxygen, low pH environment.

We are not changing the pH of specific organs or of your blood. Your stomach, for example, will remain acidic because that is what is needed to digest food properly. What we are doing is balancing out our intake so that the body does not have to work so hard. Thereby relieving stress on many organs.

What they are telling us.

What they aren't telling us.

There is a laundry list of contaminants that are not even regulated by the EPA. On November 14, 2022 the EPA published their Final Contaminate Candidate List 5, detailing the latest drinking water contaminants of health concern that are known or anticipated to occur in public water systems, but are not currently subject to EPA drinking water regulations under the Safe Drinking Water Act. This list includes 66 individual chemicals, 12 microbes, and 3 chemical groups: per- and polyfluoraalkyl substances, cyanotoxins, and disinfection byproducts. These contaminants will now be reviewed and studied to determine which ones will be added to the current list of 91 EPA-regulated contaminants.

What about Reverse Osmosis?

The popularity of reverse osmosis water (R.O. water) has grown since it was introduced as an at-home water purification system in the 1970s. Additionally, this is the type of treatment most often used by bottled water companies. I too use to try and force myself to drink R.O. water thinking, that it was the best choice for my body, all the while hating water. I was intrigued to learn that there was a reason my body didn't crave water as it does now. Through personal experience and research, I now know that there are several disadvantages to drinking R.O. water.

R.O. water does not contain the beneficial minerals your body needs.

Since minerals (sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium and iron) are larger than water molecules, they are removed by the semi-permeable membrane of the R.O. system. Minerals that carry an electrical charge are commonly known as electrolytes. Electrolytes are required for various bodily processes, including proper nerve and muscle function, maintaining acid-base balance, and keeping you hydrated.

The World Health Organization conducted a study that revealed some of the health risks associated with drinking demineralized water. They concluded that sufficient evidence is available to confirm there are health consequences from drinking water deficient in calcium or magnesium. Some of the consequences included an increased risk of sudden death, higher risk of motor neuronal disease, certain neuro-degenerative diseases, pregnancy disorders, some types of cancer, a higher risk of fracture in children, pre-term birth, and low weight at birth.

R.O. water is acidic.

Another reason R.O. water is unhealthy is because removing the minerals makes the water acidic (often well below 7.0 pH). Drinking acidic water will not help maintain a healthy pH balance in the blood, which should be slightly alkaline.

In the natural health and medical communities, acidosis in the body is known as the underlying cause of most degenerative diseases. Moreover, in 1931, Dr. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize for discovering that cancer was caused by a lack of cellular oxygenation due to acidosis in the body.

I am convinced that drinking demineralized water is not healthy and helping people learn this has become one of my life's missions.

So, if that is the problem then: What is the SOLUTION?
