Alkaline Water - Be Wary Of The Claims

By Nina Clare


Can Acidity In Your Body Be Reversed By Drinking Alkaline, Ionized Water?

All your body fluids have different pH readings. Many are alkaline others acidic. One example is gastric acid. It has to have a low pH (Acidic) or your food wouldn't be digested. your blood must be slightly alkaline or you'll die.

Your body has wonderful systems to maintain these balances. So biologically speaking, the measurements cannot be changed by drinking alkaline water

But can alkaline water really cure cancer or build up your energy? According to the manufacturers of Alkaline Water Ionizers, as they're called, it can achieve this and a lot more! But will alkaline ionized water actually do what's claimed?

If we're on the subject of biology, we will discuss what would happen if you drank a glass of alkaline ionized water. Your very acidic gastric juices will strip the water of alkalinity. As the water enters your intestines, pancreatic juices will strip it of alkalinity. Exactly what happens? It becomes alkaline!

So don't waste your time and hard earned cash on an alkaline water ionizer in the false belief that it will neutralize acid in your body. It can't!

What is the lesson? Don't waste your hard earned cash on an alkaline water ionizer. It won't neutralize acid in your body. It can't!

Anti-Oxidant Properties?

Why is it that some believe alkaline water can cure cancer? According to the manufacturers of the ionizing machine this is due to the water becomes an anti-oxidant. Because of this it's going to take on surplus electrons which can then remove "free radicals".

Free radical damage within the body is supposed to be the explanation for serious diseases like arthritis and cancer and getting rid of free radicals (which are presumed to be running unchecked within our bodies) will reverse these terrible diseases.

Something of a problem crops up here. Is this fancy water really an anti-oxidant anyway?

A bit of a problem crops up here. Is alkaline ionized water really an anti-oxidant anyway? Well, picture this: Did you know that alkaline water can bleach the color from iodine? Yes it really can! it does this because (wait for it... ) it's an oxidant! Think about bleach. The oxidizing strength of bleach is capable of doing exactly the same thing!

Anti-oxidant that can cure cancer? I don't think so.
