Can Alkaline water from one of your  water ionizers help me to alkalize my body?

Lawyers do not allow us to make therapeutic claims and we can only refer you to a list of people who have reported health changes to us, or to medical professionals who recommend water ionizers. There is plenty of scientific research available. But if you eat alkaline foods and drink ionized alkaline water your body alkalinity will change.

An example is Dr Theodore Baroody, the author of Alkalize or Die, who states that he has recommended thousands of people over a long period of time to use alkaline water and continues to do so.

In the United States , ionizers are recommended by such well known Health Professionals as Dr. Robert Young, author The pH Miracle and The pH Miracle for Weight Loss and author, Sang Whang of the book Reverse Aging.

What is acidosis?

Every living cell within our body creates acidic waste products when energy is used. The nutrients from our food are delivered to each cell and they burn with oxygen to provide energy for us to live. The burned nutrients are the waste products and are acitic. Even if you eat the best of foods or the most unhealthy, all foods generate acidic waste products. Foods, when classified as good or bad, are based on the amount and quality of the waste products they produce by pH. When our cells go through metabolic change, these old dead cells become waste products.

Our bodies discharge this acidic waste through urine, feces and perspiration. Essentially, almost all waste products are acidic and that is the reason our skin and urine often has a low pH level. The real problem is that our body does not get rid of 100% of the waste it produces. Our life style, such as lack of rest, types of foods we eat and our environment helps produce these waste products, but does not help us eliminate them. In the vast majority of Westerner diets, which are heavy in meat, dairy, fried foods, simple carbohydrates, soft drinks, and deserts that build up acid salts in the body, as well as stress and exposure to environmental pollutants.

What happens to those non-disposed acid wastes? As they build up within our body, these waste products become solid wastes, such as cholesterol, fatty acid, kidney stones, etc. This accumulation of non-disposed acidic wastes is called acidosis. Acidosis accelerates the degeneration of cells, tissues, and the body as a whole and it causes the body to store calories as FAT! Acidosis accelerates the aging process. Drinking ionized alkaline water makes it easier for the body to get rid of acid wastes. Just as the accumulation of wastes accelerates the aging process, the reduction of acid wastes retards the aging process and according to Sang Whang, even reverses it. Alkaline ionized water is not a medicine to treat or cure any diseases but if used regularly, alkaline water with a proper alkaline diet can help reduce acid waste, allowing for a natural health improvement.
