Why Be Alkaline?

Alkalinity

We live and die at the cellular level. All the cells (billions of them) that make up the human body are slightly alkaline, and must maintain alkalinity in order to function and remain healthy and alive. However their cellular activity creates acid and this acid is what gives the cell energy and function. As each alkaline cell performs its task of respiration, it secretes metabolic wastes, and these end products of cellular metabolism are acid in nature.

Although these wastes are used for energy and function, they must not be allowed to build up. One example of this is the often painful lactic acid which is created through exercise. The body will go to great lengths to neutralize and detoxify these acids before they act as poisons in and around the cell, ultimately changing the environment of the cell.

Most people and clinical practitioners believe the immune system is the body's first line of defense, but in actuality it is not. It is very important, but more like a very sophisticated clean-up service. We must instead look at the importance of pH balance as the first and major line of defense against sickness and disease and for health and vitality.

The human body is very intelligent. As we become more and more acidic the body starts to set up defense mechanisms to keep the damaging acid from entering our vital organs. It is known that acid gets stored in fat cells. After all, if the acid does come into contact with an organ the acid has a chance to eat holes in the tissue. This may cause the cells to mutate. The oxygen level drops in this acidic environment and calcium begins to be depleted.

So as a defense mechanism, your body may actually make fat to protect you from your overly-acidic self. Those fat cells and cellulite deposits may actually be packing up the acid and trying to keep it a safe distance from your organs. The fat may be saving your vital organs from damage. Many people have found that a return to a healthy inner biological terrain helps them to lose excess fat.

Benefits of Alkalinity

Today's lifestyle causes a multitude of disorders and malfunctions in the metabolism of our bodies. Despite the efforts of the Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency, our food supply, drinking water, air and soil are becoming increasingly contaminated with toxic chemicals. Never before has the human body been presented with such a heavy burden of foreign substances to metabolize and eliminate thus taxing the body beyond its natural capabilities of detoxification.

Many people just don't feel good anymore. Some find themselves being much more susceptible to colds, or to whatever "bug" is currently going around. Much more serious are the increasing cases of autoimmune diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia. "Health" and "wellness" have become relative terms.

Low-level toxicity from many sources can be very difficult to detect. The combined action of all these toxins creates a "toxic cocktail" effect which can seriously weaken the body and the mind through a process we call "fermentation" or the over-acidification of the blood and tissue as a result of the proliferation of yeast, fungus, and bacteria. Yeast and fungus are single cell life forms which inhabit the air, soil, water, and many of the foods we eat.

They are more highly developed than the intermediate states of bacteria or the early stages of viruses. Over the years, they have developed into over 500,000 different species. They are opportunists and survivalists. They are constantly looking for new places to house themselves where they may begin to colonize and proliferate. Being that they are single cell life forms, they can only be seen under a microscope but once colonized, these cells make a visible presence in the form of mushrooms, and molds on food.

Yeast, fungus, bacteria, mold, and viruses tend to house themselves in very specific sites in the body, depending on their particular requirements for nutrients and colonization conditions. All are capable of causing severe fermentation through the by-products of their metabolism, which enter the extra cellular fluid or the blood and then are distributed throughout the body. This culminates in the over-acidification of the blood and tissues which systemically poison and destroy the cells of the body. This condition we call over acidification is a direct result of an inverted way of eating - the abundance of animal protein, especially red meat and pork, dairy products (milk, cheese, ice cream), sugar in any form (sucrose, fructose, glucose).

Therefore, there is only one sickness and one disease. The primary source of nourishment for yeast, fungus, and bacteria is sugar. As these organisms feed off the sugar and proteins of our bodies they produce and excrete waste called toxins. These toxins effect us physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The solution to this growing problem is to cleanse the blood and nourish the cells. We do this by eliminating those foods which create over -acidification and eating more foods that are alkaline. Yeast, fungus, bacteria, mold, and virus can only survive in an acid base, they cannot survive in an alkaline base. It is, therefore, very important that there is a proper ration between acid an alkaline foods in the diet. When an ideal ratio is maintained, yeast fungus, bacteria, mold, and virus will revert back to their normal healthy state. The ideal ration in a normal body is 4 parts alkaline to 1 part acid which will allow the body to maintain a pH factor of 7.365. To avoid a lengthy chemistry lesson, we will get right to the point that pH refers to the relative concentration of Hydrogen (H+) ions in a solution. Low pH values indicate higher concentrations of Hydrogen ions or acids, and high pH values indicate low concentrations of Hydrogen ions or alkaline. For example, 10 to -1 is more acidic than 10 to -14.

An ideal diet should consist of dark green and yellow vegetables, soy beans, sprouted grains and nuts, and essential fatty acids. This ideal way of eating would reduce our susceptibility to toxins, detoxify the body, and reduce or prevent future exposures allowing for cellular regeneration leading to "health" and "wellness."

Written by Rob Thomas.....thank you Rob!! Good info! People are concerned about contaminants in their water.  Some of the fears that I hear are unfounded, but many are real. This article is about the contaminants found in your water, and which filters can effectively deal with them. I believe everyone should learn what is in their drinking water as soon as they move into a home. Have your water tested if your source water comes from a well, river, lake, or anything other than a municipal water supply.   If you do have a municipal water supply, look up the results of their tests on the internet, or call your local municipality.  Remember, they are working for you.  It is very important to understand your source water conditions so that you can be confident in the safety of the water that you drink. As a starting point, it should be noted that Americans and Canadians generally have very good water compared to many other countries in the world.  In municipalities, the water is regulated by the EPA in the States and Health Canada north of the border.  The municipalities are obligated to meet minimum federal standards for water safety.   Unfortunately, while the standards are met on average, that doesn’t mean that are met at all times.  Even when standards are met, do you really want your family drinking water that is “not too bad”? The biggest problem with municipal water supplies is that while they are safe against things that will cause you to be sick in the short term, they are not particularly safe in the long term.   Like so many issues in our society, the safety of our water comes down to money.  Every homeowner wants lower taxes and water rates.  Absolute purification is possible, but is obviously more costly.  So, municipalities are faced with a trade off between cost and effectiveness.  Everyone should have safer and better tap water, but until people understand the importance of water to our health, sacrifices will be made.  Those that can afford to add filtration systems will enjoy better.  It isn’t fair, but that is the way things work in our world.  The question that I have to ask people who can’t afford basic filtration is:  Is there anything in your life that you could do without in order to be able to have the best possible water in your life?  Another question would be:  What is more important than water?  Our family is fortunate that it doesn’t have to give up anything to be able to afford the $100 per year it takes to drink good water.  The proliferation of bottled water has been a huge business success, but don’t think for one minute that the water is any better for your health than the water that you get out of your tap at home. Most bottled water is acidic and carries a positive ORP (oxidation reduction potential), and both are bad for your health. In order to learn more about water, I have spoken with the presidents or owners of water ionizer companies, water softener and reverse osmosis suppliers, filter companies, and public works technicians responsible for municipal water quality. They all have different perspectives, and they all have something to add.  There will never be agreement between all the different interest groups, especially when their livelihood is the source of the discussion.  However, there are some basic and reasonably inexpensive steps anyone can take to insure that their water is safe.  The bonus is that filtered water is also much more pleasant to drink because the filters remove tastes and odours. The following is a discussion about various factors and contaminants that can alter the quality of water. SEDIMENT Water that comes from a municipal source doesn’t have to have a pre-sediment filter, but it is always a good idea to have one.  You would be surprised at how much “stuff” accumulates on a pre-sediment filter that you install under your kitchen tap.  The good news is that the filters only cost a few dollars at the most, so it makes sense to have one.  When it comes to wells, or any water that is not supplied by a municipality, a pre-sediment filter is essential.  Pre-sediment filters come in various sizes and filtering capabilities.  Generally, I recommend a five micron filter, as it takes out the “big stuff”, but won’t clog up too quickly. CHLORINE Chlorine is used by municipalities as a low cost means of sanitizing water. Chlorine is a necessary evil as it is required to remove bacteria from the water.  Chlorine can effectively be removed from water with carbon filters. Carbon filters will typically last 12 months and are available at building supply stores for about $25.  You can choose from a GAC (granulated active carbon) filter or a carbon block filter.  Both are effective. CHLORAMINE More and more municipalities are opting to use chloramine instead of chlorine for disinfecting the water.  Chloramine is formed when ammonia gas is mixed with chlorine. There are arguements for and against chloramines, but Susan Pickford (see the comments below) provides a strong  arguement against the use of chloramines.  There are incident reports available in regards to respiratory issues caused by chloramines.  However, to be fair, there are also carcinogen incident reports associated with the use of chlorine due to the formation of Trihalomethanes (THMs).  THMs are known to be carcinogenic (cancer causing) and are formed when chlorine interacts with organic compounds (carbon chains) that are found in water.   Municipalities that don’t use chloramines typically use ozone to treat for THMs.  If your municipality uses chlorine for disinfecting the water, contact them and ask them what they are doing about THMS. Chloramines are definitely more difficult to remove from your source water.  Reverse osmosis systems will remove chloramines, but we have already covered my dislike of them.  You can purchase catalytic carbon filters that will remove about 99% of the chloramine from your water.  The filters are not easily found, so you will have to go find a water specialty store. An under counter 2.5 inch by 10 inch catalytic carbon filter typically costs about $45 to $60.  Many companies will attempt  to sell you a carbon filters for use with chloramine, because they are less expensive, or the company simply hasn’t done their homework.  Either way, don’t settle for a basic carbon filter or a KDF filter if you source water contains chloramine. FLUORIDE I used to think that there was a legitimate argument both for and against fluoride.  After a great deal of research, I can say with 100% confidence that Fluoride should not be in our water.  Fluoride is a by-product of the waste from the creation of agri-chemicals or aluminum.  Fluoride is a poison and should not be in our water supply.  If you don’t believe me, read the label on a tube of Crest or Colgate toothpaste.  You will be surprised.  Fluoride is banned in Europe and Asia and it should be banned in North America. I won’t even go into the arguments for using fluoride, as the inclusion of the substance in our water supply is just plain stupid.  While the EPA and Health Canada set the maximum allowable amount at 1.5 parts per million (ppm), most municipalities won’t include more than 0.8 ppm.  Why do you think that is? Approximately 2/3 of households in Canada and the USA drink water containing fluoride.  If your municipality adds fluoride, ask them to stop.  If you are unable to get the town or city to stop using fluoride, get a filter system to take out the fluoride if you can afford it.   If you can’t afford it, think of ways to cut other expenses in your life, because removing fluoride from your family’s drinking water is important. You can remove fluoride with a distillation system or a reverse osmosis machine.  I don’t recommend either as they remove important minerals that your body needs.  Reverse osmosis systems typically make your water very acidic, which often makes your drinking water unsafe for drinking water by the standards set by Health Canada.  Therefore, you need to add a re-mineralization filter which creates more potential health problems.  This gets complicated….just don’t use this system unless you have no alternative.  Water Ionizers are great filters AND they Alkalize your water as well!  http://www.phalkalinezone.com You can remove 75% of the fluoride in your water with an Activated Alumina filter, or 94% with two filters.  While these reduction levels are not 100%, they are very effective and reduce the amount of fluoride to trace amounts.  Activated alumina filters are not readily available from normal sources, so you will need to contact a water specialty company.  The cost of the filters is typically about $45. When the odour becomes unacceptable, some municipalities may add ammonia to reduce the odour. The problem with combining chlorine and ammonia is that chloramines are created. Water ionizers do not eliminate chloramines. Once again a heated debate exists about the advantages and disadvantages of the use of chloramines in the water. LEAD Older homes that have lead plumbing pipes may have lead contamination.  The best solution for lead is to use a carbon block filter, as it also removes chlorine, bacteria, and VOCs (volatile organic compounds).  In fact, the carbon block filters are a great multi-purpose filter.  The filters are typically found in a water specialty store and cost about $45 to $50 for an under sink drinking filter system.  MERCURY Mercury is found in both organic and inorganic forms. You can learn more about mercury at: http://www.balanceyournutrition.com/In_Focus_mercury_toxicity.htm SODIUM Sodium is not typically a problem in source water as it is acceptable up to 40 ppm (parts per million). Sodium concerns generally only occur when sodium is added to the water supply by means of a water softening systems. Drinking water produced by salt based water softening systems often contains sodium in concentrations in excess of 200 ppm. People should not drink water that has been softened with salt. They should also be aware that more sodium may be absorbed through the skin from taking a bath or shower in water that has been softened by salt, than from drinking water for an entire day. You might want to investigate salt-free water softeners if your source water is hard. For more information please sign up to my newsletter: http://yourwatersafety.com/?ID=1206

Why Buy a Water Ionizer?

Your cells are begging you for one! 

Imagine the fish that live in this beautiful pool of water. They are happy and healthy, because they are living in a healthy pool of water that's constantly being cleaned and refreshed. Now think of the cells in your body. Your body is over 70% water. If you drink nice, filtered, fresh alkaline ionized water every day, it's like giving your cells the healthy advantage that the fish that live in this pool of water have. Most water [and other drinks] are so depleted of the good minerals you need for health and full of junk that will kill you that this kind of water is referred to as "dead water". Fish are so sensitive to the right water that they'll die if you put or keep them in the wrong water. Your cells are sensitive too, and the way we see the cell reaction to the wrong water is through sickness, allergies, heart disease, wrinkles, arthritis, cancer, osteoporosis, failing organs, and so on. 


When people drink ionized water they feel better! When animals are given alkaline ionized water they do better! And, your blood almost instantly shows noticeable improvement after drinking alkaline water from one of our water ionizers; see report:  A Look into Live Blood and the Benefits of Drinking Alkaline Ionized Water....

How does a water ionizer help people's blood & health? It provides cells with cleaner, wetter, antioxidant-rich, mineral-rich, alkaline water. Alkaline ionized water can actually reverse the fast-aging and disease-ridden spiral of people who suffer from acidic bodies [which is almost everyone in the USA].

Getting Sick is Not Normal! 

I used to think allergies were a "normal" condition, based on genetics and environment, and that colds were due to spreading viruses. Since I've been drinking ionized water I have a complete new understanding of what "normal" is. For me, normal is: being healthy, full of energy, and not ever getting sick [even with viruses spreading all around]. And, being this way every day, not just most of the time. Please believe me... it's not natural to be sick! Allergies and illness can be looked upon as a sign that change is needed. So many people wait till they get cancer and other diseases before they take the time and energy to make a change! It is inevitable that you will get worse diseases if you don't change what you're doing that's giving you allergies and colds. Don't wait till it's practically too late! 

Change your water; change your life! 

Considering that such a large percent of your body is water, drinking ionized water instead of junk is completely scientific and logical. I can say with complete certainty that it's the most effective, pleasant and, in the long run, inexpensive change that anyone can do right now. Why don't you give it a try?

Benefits of Alkaline (Ionized) AND Acidic Water

1. Ionized Water Is Nature's Antioxidant
 
Alkaline, ionized water acts as a powerful and natural antioxidant.
Because 60% of our body weight consists of water it is important to look at what type of water will benefit you the most.

Ionized (Alkaline) water through having a negative ORP (see below) and through producing hydroxyl ions can help with oxygen production, neutralizing harmful free radicals, increasing your energy level, correcting your body's acid/alkaline balance, hydrating cells and in general reducing many of the symptoms of aging.

Millions of dollars are spent on the antioxidants vitamins A, C and E yet millions again are spent on buying bottled water that is over 100 times more acidic than regular water and which is unable to be ionized because all the essential alkalizing minerals have been taken out.

What vitamins A, C and E have in common with ionized water is they are capable of carrying oxygen with an extra electron attached. These hydroxyl ions in the ionized water seek out and neutralize free radicals. This is very important since free radicals are what cause damage to our cells and bring about disease and (premature) aging. When the hydroxyl ions as an antioxidant have neutralized the free radicals the result is a body rich in oxygen and energy.

In our modern world oxygen levels are depleted due to stress, environmental pollution, diet and lack of exercise. Oxygen helps to destroys cancer cells, removes waste, carries nutrients and also helps in resisting bacteria and viruses that invade your body. A glass of ionized water first thing in the morning is a wonderful way to greet every day.

A high positive ORP (such as found in most bottled and city water) creates oxidation and accelerates the aging process. In comparison, when you drink clean, ionized water you are drinking a powerful and natural antioxidant that renews us at the cellular level. How amazing that so much is spent on doctors, pills and cosmetics as our bodies dehydrate and acidify.

If you make fresh organic juice you will have an antioxidant with a -250 ORP. Yet ionized water from an Ionways water ionizer will give this ORP and lower AND you will be able to drink and enjoy as much as you need throughout the day without any negative side effects.

If you are still addicted to coffee etc then try making it with ionized water. Not only will what you drink be so much healthier but the ionized water will also pull out the taste and flavor so much better than other types of water can.

When water is stored for over a day it becomes "dead", By drinking your oxygen-rich, antioxidant ionized water straight from your alkaline ionizer you gain the most benefit.

If you slow the water flow down you will notice that your glass will have hundreds of very small bubbles floating in it. These bubbles are the hydroxyl ions and why your water now carries a negative ORP.

2. Ionized Water is Alkaline Water

Ionized Water helps to balance your body's pH. In general, our bodies are out of balance and have become too acidic. Feeling over-tired, weak, restless, frustrated, stiff, overwhelmed, unfocused or confused are often early warning signs that our bodies are no longer able to cope with their toxic overload.

A body that is too acidic provides the ideal environment for diseases to manifest and thrive in. Our body tries to buffer (or reduce) the effect of this excess acid by taking calcium from the bones, and magnesium needed for heart health. It turns acidic wastes into solids and stores them in fatty tissues resulting in hardening of the arteries and excess weight. It stores crystalline deposits in joints that creates gout, inflammation and stiffness. As our body's communication channels break down, cancerous cells may appear and organs will shrink and degenerate.

Because it is very alkaline, ionized water dissolves accumulated acid waste and helps to restore balance. Keeping yourself alkaline is your first line of defense in fighting any disease.

3. Ionized Water is up to Six Times more Hydrating than Conventional Water

Ionized Water is very different from water that has been stored in bottles. For many thousand of years, we have been genetically trained to drink water that has been moving (bouncing over rocks) and which is free from chemicals.

In a few places in the world you can still enjoy, in nature, the health benefits of clean, safe, ionized water. Now, we have alkaline water ionizers that bring this lost source to your kitchen sink. With ionized water the size and shape of the water molecule cluster is reduced in size and is changed in shape to hexagonal. This size and shape allows the water molecules to pass through your tissues more easily.

Also when the essential alkalizing minerals are ionized your body will be able to absorb and use them much more efficiently. In comparison, drinking reverse osmosis or distilled water will lead to mineral deficiencies and the ability of the body to absorb mineral supplements will be compromised if your body is already in an over-acidic state.

4. Ionized Water improves the Taste and Quality of Food

Because ionized water is able to hydrate food better, it is able to draw out its goodness and flavor better. It will also reduce the acidic level.

5. Acidic Ionized Water is great for the skin and itchy scalp..

The skin is naturally an acid organ. People who regularly use acidic water to wash their bodies tend to have a younger looking skin than those who use hard water. Hard water is water that is alkaline usually due to the presence of excess calcium. By applying acidic (soft) ionized water to the skin it will help to clear up excess bacteria (reduce acne and other blemishes) and will work like an astringent to tighten up the skin and remove wrinkles. In Japanese hospitals acidic water is used to help sterilize wounds, treat diabetic ulcers and keep hospitals clear of infectious bacteria and viruses. Acidic ionized water can also be used to reduce inflammation and itchiness caused by insect bites.

There Are Two Types if Acid and Alkaline Foods

1) Acid or alkaline foods, meaning how much acid or alkaline the foods contain.
2) Acid or alkaline 'forming' foods, meaning the pH condition foods cause in the body after being digested.
 

Acidic conditions inhibit nerve action whereas alkalinity stimulates nerve action. Cold showers make the blood alkaline, while hot showers make the blood acid. A balanced diet helps to maintain the pH balance of the blood. Results however take more than a couple of days to show up. If blood develops a more acidic condition, then the body will inevitably deposit the excess acid to another area of the body so that the blood will be able to maintain an alkaline condition. 

As this cycle continues, these areas will increase in acidity and some cells will die. The dead cells will then turn into acids. Some cells may adapt and instead of dying as normal cells do in a acid environment, they will survive by becoming abnormal. These abnormal cells are known as malignant cells. Malignant cells do not correspond with brain function nor with our DNA memory code. Malignant cells grow indefinitely and without order. This is cancer, and cancer develops in the following stages: 

 

1.  The ingestion of numerous acid forming foods, fatty foods, refined foods, carcinogenic substances such as nitrates, and chemically treated foods. X-ray scans also contribute.
2.  Constipation is increased.
3.  An increase of acidity in the blood. This stage causes an increase of white cells and a decrease of red cells, which is the beginning of leukemia.
4.  An increase of acidity in the extra cellular fluids.
5.  An increase of acidity into the intracellular fluids.
6.  The birth of malignant cells. This stage of cancer is known as 'initiation'.
7.  Further ingestion of multiple acid foods. Traditional treatment includes high levels of radiation, chemicals and drugs. 

This stage is called 'cancer promotion'. - Adapted by CMI from 'Acid Alkaline' by Herman Aihara.

Disease Cannot Thrive in an Alkaline Environment

Let us understand what causes cancer and how an alkaline diet can prevent it. Each cell in our body takes in oxygen, nutrients and glucose while throws out toxins. These cells are protected by the immune system. But as the body gets acidic the immune system gets overpowered by the toxins and the cell looses its capacity to take in oxygen and thus ferments. This cell gets cancer affected and is lost. The next question is can cancer be prevented and cured by consuming an alkaline diet. Cancer cells lie dormant in a ph of 7.4 but as the body gets alkalized higher and the ph level reaches 8.4 these malignant cells die off. So the answer to cancer lies in an extremely alkaline diet. When the alkaline diet will result in a high alkaline body ph the cancer cells cannot live in that environment and die off.

Cancer cells being anaerobic cannot live in oxygen. They can only thrive in very low oxygen conditions. When the ph of the body is maintained by consuming an alkaline diet the immune system of the body stays strong. This leads to the cells getting enough oxygen and discarding their toxin waste. Cancer will neither thrive nor take birth under such circumstances.

How does an alkaline diet and drinking alkaline ionized water prevent cancer? An alkaline diet leads to a high alkaline body ph. This high alkaline body ph results in alkaline tissues in the body. Alkaline tissues hold 20 times more oxygen than acidic tissues. Cancer cannot live in an oxygenated atmosphere. If the cells are oxygen rich they will prevent cancer. Therefore while an acidic tissue will be an ideal ground for cancer to develop as well as spread, an alkaline tissue will destroy a cancer cell. Having a lot of green vegetables and fruits along with alkaline water can save you from cancer. An alkaline diet requires one to eat foods that are high alkalizing while avoiding the acidifying foods.

An alkaline diet is very beneficial in fighting many diseases apart from cancer. Alkaline supplements are good ways to include alkaline food in your diet. Over cooking of vegetables leads to their nutrients being destroyed. Alkaline supplements make sure one gets enough alkalizing foods in a day. Also alkaline water is a good alternative to ordinary water. So if you want your body to be cancer free as well as healthy and energetic adopt an alkaline diet and make it your way of life.

The Struggle to Eat Right.....

Putting the right foods into our bodies is a daily struggle. Fast food drive-thrus and all-you-can-eat buffets lurk on every corner. Fat, salt, and sugar have been added to almost every package on the shelf at the grocery store. Grabbing a bag of chips or a can of soda at the convenience store is certainly a lot easier than peeling an orange or tossing a salad.

You've heard it all your life: "Eat more Fruits and Vegetables." Now, medical science is telling you, too. But knowing is easy. It's doing it that's hard. People often turn to vitamins and other nutritional supplements to improve their diets. Unfortunately, vitamins alone can't begin to replicate the thousands of different nutrients found in fresh fruits and vegetables.

You see, we don't suffer from a vitamin deficiency; we suffer from a whole food deficiency. And this deficiency affects the young and old alike. Click here to learn more about the Juice Plus+ Children's Health Study.
