The words “alkaline water” are used to see if the water you are drinking is good for you. It’s determined by what is known as pH (Potential Hydrogen). Neutral being a 7.0, acidic is less than 7.0 and alkaline being greater than 7.0. Getting just a bit more technical, it’s the measure of the concentration of hydrogen ion activity (electron donor). (=H+) (=protons)….

Yea….. Huh, I just want a great glass of water! What's the big deal? |
Our bodies run at a pH of 7.365, well most of the body anyway. The stomach running in an acidic range to digest the food we consume. This is why it’s important to drink the proper pH water.
What is the reason for drinking a proper pH water? Being that the human body is around 75% water we need to keep that water content up where it should be. By drinking around one half of your body weight in ounces every day.
If you’re
drinking junk water, (unfiltered), your brain is getting that junk water. Lets jump one more step and wonder when that
junk water gets to your brain, what damage could it be doing? Multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and much more just in the autoimmune section. Could you at least be in a heap of trouble
over time? I sure was! Our brain is who we are!
There are other factors coming into play here for you too! Chlorine, fluoride, THM's, somewhere in the neighborhood of 90 legally allowable other chemicals and the water may still be classified as legally alkaline. These would be things that were not around in the beginning. Earlier peoples had great alkaline water to drink. Now the chemicals are in the water we drink.
We will go into more detail on the good, (ORP), the bad, (fluoride), and the ugly, (chemicals), in the water we drink and what the powers that be are not telling us.
Living alkaline has become a catch phrase or a catch all for the big global money. We drink their junk because they say it's now somehow good for us, or at least might not hurt us....BUT....
