There has been a lot of talk recently about acid /alkaline imbalance. The experts can help us by recommending how we correct this imbalance.
What is the problem with Acid/Alkaline Balance? Your body functions at its best when it is in
balance, when it is not too acidic or too alkaline. The unfortunate thing is that almost all of us are acidic due to our diets, what we drink and the effect of stress from the pollution in our environment and psychologically. When acids build up in our body it causes our systems to become out of balance.
What are the effects? "Acid wastes build up in the body in the form of cholesterol, gallstones, kidney stones, arterial plaque, urates, phosphates and sulfates. These acidic waste products are the direct cause of premature aging and the onset of chronic disease," According to Dr. Stefan Kuprowsky. What the body does to restore its optimal pH balance is it depletes minerals like potassium, calcium and magnesium from the organs and bones. This may cause your immune system to become fatigued from handling an excess of acid. Your body will store acidic wastes in your body like your muscles and fat rather than releasing the acidic waste into the bloodstream.
Just about every condition I can think of, from arthritis to diabetes to cancer, is associated with acidity," notes Dr. Robert Atkins, the well known author, health and diet expert. "The countless names of illnesses do not really matter. What does matter is that they all come from the same root cause…too much tissue acid waste in the body!", says Theodore A. Baroody, ND, Ph.D.
What can be done about this? Massive research about this reveals that you can take some simple steps to help neutralize acid build-up in the blood and maintain a balanced pH. Simple steps you can take are:
* Exercise
* Avoiding highly acid-forming food and drink
* Drinking the right water
What is the "right" water? According to Dr. Leonard Horowitz in "Aids and Ebola", "International studies show that populations with little or no history of illness, such as cancer, drink higher pH (alkaline) waters. After all potential risk factors were considered and factored out, it became evident that they had been drinking waters with a pH of 9.0 to 10.0."
Alkaline ionized water "first came to notice in Japan, where researchers noted that people drinking water that came from certain fast- moving rocky mountain streams enjoyed extraordinarily good health. It turned out that this naturally occurring water was alkaline and had a different structure and electrical properties." Larry Clapp, PhD. in "Prostate Health in 90 days"
Alkaline ionized water was used in hospitals in Japan. It was noticed that patients were experiencing marked health improvements and were released from the hospital and sent home. After a short time the patients had reoccurences and were re-admitted to the hospital.
Alkaline ionized water can now be produced at home with a small kitchen unit called the Enagic SD501, which has been in long use in Japan. More and more health professionals have had the opportunity to evaluate the effects of Alkaline water ionizers on clients due to the fact that Alkaline water ionizers have become popular in North America and Canada:
We can "assist the body in being more alkaline with …drinking alkaline water." writes Sue Pollock, N.D.
In "Alkalize or Die", Dr. T. Baroody writes, "It is my opinion that ionized water will change the way in which all health practitioners and the public approach their health in the coming years."
"I believe that the best water is water that is alkaline (reduced) and purified using a small device known as a water ionizer." (Dr. Stefan Kuprowsky)
Well why not just rely on a change of diet, you may ask? Researcher and author of "Reverse Aging", Sang Whang says that the danger is we might omit important foods from our diet:
"Since the waste products that we are trying to discharge are acidic, the right kind of water is alkaline water…My personal recommendation is to enjoy the foods that we like, but do not over-eat or exclude any food. Eat in moderation following the professional dieticians' "balanced diet" concept, and let alkaline water do the job of cleansing acidic wastes."
The best and highest grade of Alkaline Ionized water for your acid/alkaline balance is Kangen Water produced from Enagic's SD501 unit.
