Correct Your Acid Alkaline Balance By The Water You Drink

Correct your acid / alkaline balance by the water you drink: What the experts say
In health circles there has been much recent talk about acid / alkaline imbalance. Let's
see if we can clarify how experts recommend we correct this imbalance.
The problem
Your body functions best when neither too acid nor too alkaline. Unfortunately almost
all of us have become acidic due to diet, drinks and stress -- both psychological and from
pollution. Acids can build up in the body's system causing the body's pH to be out of
balance.
The effects
According to Dr. Stefan Kuprowsky, "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."
When this occurs, the body will restore its optimal pH by depleting certain minerals, such
as potassium, calcium and magnesium, from organs and bones. In addition, your
immune system may become fatigued from dealing with an excess of acid. Your body
then stores acidic wastes in 'hiding places' such as muscles etc. rather than releasing the
acids into the bloodstream.
As Dr. Robert Atkins, the noted author, health and diet expert, notes: "Just about every
condition I can think of, from arthritis to diabetes to cancer, is associated with acidity."
"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!" Theodore A.
Baroody, ND, Ph.D.
What can be done?
A vast body of research reveals you can help the body neutralize acids in the blood and
maintain a balanced pH, by taking some simple steps, such as:
· Exercise
· Avoiding highly acid-forming food and drink.
· Drinking the right water
What is the "right" water?
"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." Dr. Leonard Horowitz in "Aids and Ebola"
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 water is produced at home with a small kitchen appliance called a water ionizer
(long in use in Japan and Korea). As water ionizers have become more popular in North
America, more health professionals have had the opportunity to evaluate their effects on
their clients:
Sue Pollock, N.D. writes, we can "assist the body in being more alkaline with …drinking
alkaline water."
"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)
"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." Dr. T. Baroody in "Alkalize or
Die."
Why not just rely on a change of diet?
According to Sang Whang, researcher and author of "Reverse Aging", the danger is that
we might omit important foods:
"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
dietitians' "balanced diet" concept, and let alkaline water do the job of cleansing acidic
wastes."
